Method is built to last for years to come
A structurally optimized metal frame runs the full length of the Method’s body. This ultra-rigid metal frame was designed with the sole purpose of offsetting flexing, less flexing results in more consistent prints, more accurate parts, and fewer failures overall.
Achieve uncompromised layer adhesion and part strength
Featuring a 60°C circulating heated chamber, Method allows users to control the temperature and quality of every layer. While heated build plates are effective at reducing first layer warping, the Method takes this approach one step further with full active heat immersion – providing even temperatures for the entire duration of the print job.
Smart features help to reduce cost and save time on small production manufacturing runs
The dual performance extruder system utilized by the Method, was built from the ground up with the goal of accelerating print times and providing higher dimensional accuracy across every part. Built-in smart sensors for material management and print protection automatically detect and alert the user when materials are running low and allows for active jam detection during the entire print duration. Other features such as the Spring Steel build plate, which easily pops out to allow users to queue up their next print, and the 5” full-color capacitive touch screen offers users a highly intuitive and seamless user experience.
