• Lockheed Martin

• U.S. Army

• Royal Netherlands Navy (Koninklijke Marine)

Mission-Ready for Critical On-Demand Production

The S8 Secure is built with advanced hardware and software security features for professional deployment. It offers the same speed, precision, and open-material ecosystem as the standard S8, now hardened for defense use. This enables the on-demand production of mission-critical tools, replacement parts, and functional prototypes, significantly minimizing downtime and reducing dependence on vulnerable supply chains.

Advanced Hardware for Uncompromising Performance

High-Flow Dual Extrusion for Complex Parts

The sophisticated dual-extrusion print head, combined with intelligent software, allows you to print with any two compatible materials, no matter how different they are. This system guarantees high reliability and minimal material waste, enabling you to produce complex geometries with soluble supports or multiple performance materials in a single, uninterrupted print.

Upgraded Feeder for High-Speed Performance

Inherited from the advanced UltiMaker Factor 4, the S8 Secure features a new hardened feeder module. This upgraded design provides an improved grip and superior material control, ensuring flawless and consistent extrusion even at the highest printing speeds.

Magnetic Flexible Build Plate for Enhanced Productivity

Forget using glue and remove parts effortlessly with the PEI-coated flexible build plate. Its innovative design utilizes 25 magnets and 4 alignment pins to ensure a perfect, repeatable setup every time, dramatically boosting your productivity and ease of use.

Integrated EPA Filter for a Healthier Workspace

The fully enclosed build chamber not only enhances print quality but also features an integrated EPA filter. This system is independently tested to remove up to 95% of ultrafine particles (UFPs), improving air quality and providing greater peace of mind in any office or workshop environment.

Unmatched Reliability with Long-Term Support

The UltiMaker S8 Secure is engineered for durability and is backed by comprehensive support. It comes with a standard 2-year service plan, with optional extensions available for up to 5 years of coverage. Furthermore, critical maintenance parts are guaranteed to be available for 5-7 years, ensuring the long-term operational readiness of your investment.
