Overview
Ultimaker Air Manager
The UltiMaker S5 Air Manager is not just an enclosure. It's an innovation in 3D printing. It filters up to 95% of ultrafine particles, ensuring a safer workspace even in spaces with limited ventilation or when using materials that may emit harmful particles. The controlled environment of the air manager reduces print failures, especially with advanced composite materials. This translates to fewer interruptions and consistent high-quality results.
The UltiMaker S5 Air Manager features a quiet 140 mm (5.5 inch) fan, optimally positioned to maximize airflow through the high-efficiency filter and stabilize the print chamber's temperature. The outcome? Improved print quality in a distraction-free workspace.
The Air Manager boasts material-matching fan speeds, embedded in UltiMaker Cura's profiles. This ensures precise airflow and filtration for every material, enhancing filter longevity and managing potential emissions effectively.
The Air Manager UltiMaker S5 transforms the 3D printing experience, emphasizing safety, consistency, and top-tier print quality in a compact package.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I replace the filter in the Air Manager?
The filter's lifespan can vary based on usage, the type of materials printed, and the printing environment. Typically, each filter will last for around 500 hours of printing time. UltiMaker generally recommends checking the filter status regularly and replacing it when the software indicates or if there's a noticeable decrease in filtration performance.
How Does the Air Manager Ensure More Reliable Printing?
The UltiMaker Air Manager enhances 3D printing reliability by enclosing the print area, ensuring a consistent temperature and shielding against drafts. This stable environment promotes better bed adhesion and reduces warping, especially with temperature-sensitive materials. Moreover, by filtering out contaminants and adjusting conditions in real-time through integrated monitoring, it ensures an optimal and consistent print environment.
Can I Still Monitor My Prints with the Air Manager Installed?
Absolutely. The Air Manager, while ensuring a controlled environment, features a transparent design that provides users an unobstructed view of the print bed. This ensures that, alongside its primary benefits, users can still easily monitor their prints throughout the entire printing process.
