Ultimaker Print Core AA 0.8mm (9531)

  • Description

    ULTIMAKER PRINT CORES MAIN BANNER

    Ultimaker Print Core AA 0.8mm (9531): Tap into the potential of high-strength printing with the Ultimaker print core AA, compatible with a variety of composite materials available on the Ultimaker Marketplace. Featuring a durable, wear-resistant hardened steel nozzle and offering multiple sizes. Opt for 0.25mm or 0.4mm for superior visual precision or 0.8mm for faster print times with the added advantage of dual extrusion - enabling two-colour prints, or various material combinations with extra-fine detail.

    The Print Core AA 0.8mm is a good option for high-speed printing. Using this print core, you can configure the layer height to be as much as 0.6mm, resulting in fewer layers and a significantly reduced printing speed. When using thicker layers, the layers will be more visible in the final print, so use this approach when the highest quality isn't needed.

    MULTIPLE PRINT CORES, MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY:

    Three nozzle sizes – 0.25mm and 0.4mm, enabling you to print detailed parts, tools, or prototypes with higher visual quality, and 0.8mm, for shorter print times and improved efficiency – will result in easier optimisation of composite applications.

    The Ultimaker print core AA 0.25's smaller nozzle size means your prints will feature extra fine levels of detail, thinner line widths, and a smooth surface finish when printing build materials including Nylon, PLA, CPE, ABS, TPU95A, Breakaway support and PP. 

    And by using the Ultimaker print core AA 0.8 to print with bigger line widths, your composite applications will be ready as quickly as possible – saving you time in a busy, hardworking environment that requires efficiency and speed.

     

    RELIABLE, ROBUST, READY FOR WORK:

    The Ultimaker print core AA features an all-new design with an abrasion-resistant, hardened steel nozzle and titanium heat break. Reliable, robust, and compatible with a wide range of composite 3D printing materials, you'll unlock the power to print high-strength applications that are ready for work.

     

    QUICK SWAP - NO TOOLS NECESSARY:

    With a quick-swap design, the Ultimaker print core AA – like all Ultimaker print cores – can be quickly and easily changed, tool-free, to meet the requirements of any print job, increasing your efficiency and decreasing downtime.

    Plus, the print core's EEPROM chip memorises the size and type of your nozzle, meaning fewer printing errors and an increased chance of success.

    COMPATIBILITY EXPLANATION:

    The AA and BB print cores are compatible with all UltiMaker printers that use print cores (UltiMaker 3, S series, and Factor 4). These print cores are not intended for use with abrasive materials.

    The CC print cores are only compatible with UltiMaker printers with abrasion-resistant feeders (S series and Factor 4). These print cores are intended for use with abrasive or composite materials. These print cores cannot be used on the UltiMaker 3, because the UltiMaker 3 feeders are not compatible with composite materials.

    See more information about the AA and CC cores on the UltiMaker S8 below.

    The CC print cores can also be used in combination with the Material Station. The Material Station has abrasion-resistant prefeeders in all material bays. However, the Material Station is not compatible with all composite materials. Please check the latest profiles in the UltiMaker Marketplace to determine if the material can be used with the Material Station.

    The DD cores are not recommended for use with the S series Material Station. The DD print cores currently only support Ultrafuse Support Layer filament, which is used when printing metal. This is not recommended with the S series Material Station due to the curves in the internal filament path. On Factor 4, the filament path is different (smoother) so this does not affect the Ultrafuse material as much.

    The HT print cores are only compatible with Factor 4. This print core type is optimized for high-temperature materials, such as UltiMaker PPS CF. This material requires a high printing and build volume temperature to print reliably; only Factor 4 features a heated build chamber.

    The AA+ and CC+ print cores feature redesigned nozzles optimised for faster material melting and deposition, ensuring seamless compatibility with UltiMaker Cheetah motion planning. This advanced motion planner is exclusive to the UltiMaker S8.

    Regular AA and CC print cores can be used on the S8, but this workflow is not fully supported. These cores are not designed for the high-speed capabilities of the S8. The AA and CC cannot be selected for S8 in Cura; no profiles are developed for this configuration. To use the regular AA and CC cores on the S8, you can slice the print job for UltiMaker S7 instead and print it on S8.
