Manual of product 2+
Editorial note
The Ultimaker 2+ stands out for its ability to deliver high-quality prints thanks to FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) technology, allowing for precise layer thicknesses ranging from 0.25 mm to 0.8 mm. Its intuitive control system, based on buttons and a rotary knob, greatly facilitates navigation, making the use of the printer enjoyable and accessible. However, some aspects could be improved. The lack of wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi) and USB port limits file transfer options, which may make usage less convenient for some users. Additionally, the maximum print speed of 24 mm³/s may not be suitable for users requiring rapid production, especially for batch projects. The compact dimensions of the Ultimaker 2+ allow for easy integration into various workspaces, although its weight of 11,300 g may complicate moving the printer. Furthermore, the absence of advanced features such as engraving or multi-extrusion may restrict the creativity of users wishing to create more complex prints. Overall, the Ultimaker 2+ offers good value for money, especially regarding print quality. However, the limitations in connectivity and print speed could affect the perceived value for some users.Score details
