The material selection of the Method XL has been specifically tailored to address the needs of our users: match the quality of injection molded parts using ABS-R, leverage the performance of carbon fiber with ABS-CF, and create complex parts with minimal post-processing thanks to our soluble supports materials.
ABS-R
Print large end-use parts with the quality of injection molding using ABS-R on the Method XL. The heated build plate and chamber system ensure reliable prints, again and again, no matter the size of your print.
ABS-CF
Combine the performance of carbon fiber with the reliability of ABS using the new ABS-CF on the Method XL.
Soluable Support Materials
Say goodbye to time-consuming post-processing and laborious support removal with the Method XL's soluble support materials. Simply print your part with the support material, submerge it in a dissolving agent, and watch as the supports disappear, leaving behind a clean and smooth finish.
CloudPrint gets you from a CAD file to a sliced part in record time with no installation necessary. Control and monitor your Method XL using a workflow that’s perfectly tailored to your printer.
Expanded material options using the Labs open material solution.
Both a HEPA filter and an activated carbon filter are integrated into the machine assuring that you can use the Method XL indoors without worrying about harmful fumes or strong smells.

Nothing will impact your 3D printing results like the kind of filament you use. Good filament is highly consistent in diameter, is wound evenly onto the spool with just the right amount of tension, and will not tangle when being unwound. 3D Universe offers a wide range of high-quality filaments to choose from. We provide a 100% satisfaction guarantee on all filament we sell. If you have any problems, just send back the unused portion of the spool for a full refund. Check out our filament collection...
