Ultimaker Cura 4.9 is here! Download it now to experience print slicing at its most seamless, thanks to new workflow integration with the Digital Library in Ultimaker Digital Factory – which is now available for any Ultimaker Digital Factory user with an Ultimaker 3D printer.
Additionally, you’ll enjoy more than 80 bug fixes and feature improvements, including several to print visualization to assist you in achieving first-time right results.
Take a tour of the updates in under 2 minutes with this Ultimaker Cura 4.9 video overview.
We’ve integrated Ultimaker Cura to enable a seamless workflow with the Digital Library in Ultimaker Digital Factory. You can now directly open files from library projects. After preparation, quickly and easily export them back to your Digital Library.
Working on something new? No problem – you can also create a Digital Library project from within Ultimaker Cura itself. That means no more switching software, no more waiting – just making it happen.
In all, Digital Library integration results in a massive workflow boost to Ultimaker Essentials, Ultimaker Professional, and Ultimaker Excellence users – whether you’re printing remotely or collaborating on projects and applications.
Several new features provide a better, more detailed visual representation of how a model is printed, making it a snap to fine-tune settings and improve first-time right. They include:
“Line type” is now the default color scheme. This improves your user experience – as you will no longer have to manually switch to “line type” each time you enter Preview mode
An indicator now clearly shows a print’s starting point
The Z-seam is now clearly indicated in Preview mode. This ensures that you will know whether the seam will be sufficiently hidden in the end product
Other new features in Ultimaker Cura 4.9 include:
Simplified Ultimaker Cura onboarding. A new sign-in flow makes it easier than ever to get started with Ultimaker Cura – plus feature highlights, so you can immediately check out what’s new!
Weight estimation in decimals. This provides a more detailed idea of the amount of material used – which is especially useful for smaller prints.
18 printer definitions added for third-party printers. This makes Ultimaker Cura more accessible to community users.
The following bug fixes are available in Ultimaker Cura 4.9:
“Connect top/bottom polygons” setting. We have fixed a bug in which this setting was unintentionally hidden when initial layer bottom layers are set to “concentric”.
Ultimaker Cura sub-model slicing. We have fixed a bug causing Ultmaker Cura not to slice a model if one sub-model of a group was below the build plate
