Ultimaker

Ultimaker introduced its first 3D printer in 2011. Since then, it has become one of the most popular 3D printers due to its ease of use and high-quality prints.

The Ultimaker uses fused filament fabrication (FFF) technology, which means it melts plastic filament and extrudes it onto a build plate to create three-dimensional objects. One of the benefits of FFF technology is that it allows for a wide range of materials, including PLA, ABS, PETG, and nylon.
