March 4th, 2015 - Dubai, UAE: PRECISE Group is an early adopter of 3D printing technology in the Middle East for the past 4 years and is pleased to be appointed as the International reseller for Ultimaker in the region. The Ultimaker 2 is a versatile, high-quality 3D printer that can be used for multiple purposes. It can crank out quick, rough prints, or produce smooth, clean prints of excellent quality. It offers a very large print area for creating relatively big objects in one piece. The Ultimaker 2 was recently voted Best Consumer Product 2014 at the London 3D Print Show Global Awards.
“The UAE governments call to innovation and creativity is a mission statement PRECISE has been evolving towards with our 3D Printing services and solutions.” According to Mr.Lothar Hohmann, Owner and President of PRECISE Group, “The revolution of 3D printing will change the world and can be considered as the next major industrial revolution of modern times. The quality and precision of design outcome from Ultimaker 2 will open avenues for design companies, architects, engineers, medical researchers, inventors and institutions that will revolutionize the market place.”
Announcing the appointment of PRECISE Group as the international reseller for the Ultimaker2, Mr. Mick Mayor, CEO of Ultimaker International said, “We are proud at Ultimaker International to be represented by PRECISE who share Ultimaker’s core values of open source, sharing & collaborating and community to build the Ultimaker brand. We welcome PRECISE to Ultimaker’s growing community of sales partners around the world.”
Manufactured from premium parts and materials the Ultimaker 2 has been upgraded in design and features, it now adds a heated bed, which smoothens the print output, allows for ABS material printing and also prevents warping. Claiming the highest speed and accuracy possible on any desktop 3D printer available today, the printer offers a print speed of up to 300mm/s and a layer resolution of 20 microns 0.02mm. In addition, the Ultimaker 2 is an open - source 3D printer which is the key ingredient for its success, it is also more accurate, faster and simpler than compared to the previous iteration of the Ultimaker Original. It is also very cost effective for such quality.
The use of FFF technology also allows the choice of a wide range of material filaments including popular choices such as PLA and ABS. The Ultimaker 2 is available in a highly compact design with frame dimensions of 357 x 342 x 388mm (not including filament spool), offering an overall build volume of 230 x 225 x 205mm. The Ultimaker 2 comes with Ultimaker’s own customizable software called Cura. Cura has the ability to pre-process 3D files 60 times faster than the typical slicing engines. This is fast enough to be able to send the file to the machine, process it quicker and print. Cura was voted as the Best Consumer Software 2014 at the London 3D Print Show Global Awards. The printer also comes with a standalone SD-card for 3D-model file upload and Ultimaker’s Cura open-source software, which essentially slices a 3D-model into the requisite layers in preparation for printing. The retail price for the Ultimaker 2 is AED 11,995/- and comes with 12 months warranty and will be available at Virgin Megastore stores in the region, also an option to purchase it online at The 3D Bee (the3dbee.com) is the first online platform in the Middle East specializing in 3D printing and solutions.
