Ultimaker Ultrafuse Support Layer Filament Packaged

Ultimaker Ultrafuse Support Layer Filament Packaged is BASF Forward AM's Ultrafuse Support Layer, used to print a thin ceramic layer between supports and a metal part. It works with Ultrafuse 17-4 PH or 316L on the UltiMaker S5 with the DD print core from the Metal Expansion Kit.

What it does

In dual-extrusion metal printing the supports are metal too. Support Layer is printed as an interface between the supports and the part, so the supports do not sinter to the part and can be removed after sintering.

Highlights

• Opens up more complex, supported geometries
• Good surface quality on supported areas after removal
• Helps minimise distortion during debinding and sintering
• UltiMaker Marketplace profiles generate the ceramic layer automatically

Before you buy

The material is highly abrasive, so UltiMaker specifies the DD print core, and it is not meant for printing stand-alone parts. Provide good ventilation or an external exhaust, as UltiMaker advises. Please check your printer model before ordering; our team can confirm compatibility by chat.
