Creality Ender-5 Plus PEI Magnetic Flexible Heated Bed, 3D Printer PEI Printing Plate 377X370X2mm

Product Information

When removing the old extruder, make sure you have a good grip on the stepper motor. The screws that you need to undo are the only thing holding the stepper motor in place, so make sure you’re supporting it, otherwise, it’s likely fall and damage itself or other parts of your printer. The Tomb of 3D Printed Horrors channel on YouTube has a great tutorial on how to do this on Creality machines. Ultra Large Printing Format: 350X350X400mm | Meet more of your printing requirements, enable more ideas to be printed out, achieve better print results, and a larger print model at a time. Larger than the Ender 3 3D printers, the Ender 5 measures 552 x 485 x 510 mm and features a print area of 220 x 220 x 300mm (50mm higher than the Ender 3 build area). Its net weight is 11.8 kg.

And it’s a basic fact of life; bigger is generally better . Always keep one of Henry Ford’s more profound aphorisms in mind: These all metal extruder upgrades are more durable and robust, reducing the drag on the filament and stopping the filament from eroding away at the feeder arm on the extruder. They are also relatively cheap, which makes this an easy modification to opt for. What does it improve? Reduces the likelihood of filament jams, creates a more constrained filament path

Applications

Bed size and build volume can be critical factors for some users, and not so much for others. If you’re someone who undertakes massive builds, well done for both needing and rising to the challenges they present, which can be significant. Add the following to your config. Or if you’re fancy, put it in a separate script file and call it but I don’t do that. For most users, it’s a rare occurrence to build that big of a project, and in most cases, it can be accommodated by printing in parts and bonding. But makers are very often not easily satisfied people. Besides the larger volume, the Ender 5 Plus also includes a BLTouch auto bed leveling sensor and an end-of-the-filament sensor. In this example, the visible layers printed at 0.12mm height add mood to the whole scene well-representing the skin of the dragon.

We get hung up on seeing zeros on the level screens but, actually, being at 2 is fine, as long as they’re all close together. Your Z offst isn’t affected because the bed is still probed at the start of each print. More on that later. Stepper motor dampers are used to reduce vibrations, and in the context of 3D printers, the stepper motor noise that arises when the 3D printer is in operation. The dampers come with a rubber sole sandwiched between two metal plates that absorb vibrations and reduce the noise levels by 5-10 dB. Quite significant! First, I kept thinking the poor adhesion was due to leveling/tramming. The reality is that my leveling was just fine and the BL-Touch leveling mesh was working fine. Just get within .1 across all the measurements and thats good enough to have reliable prints.

The addition of a 4.3” touch screen is a big improvement, making the user interface feel more direct and natural, and allowing more eyes on setup, jogging, and operation. The Ender 5 Pro is an upgrade of the successful Ender 5 machine, with a number of valued and effective improvements over the original. But the build table dimensions remained unchanged — 220 x 220 mm.

Bed Strain Relief: it is a support structure for the heated bed wires. It reduces the risk of damage while increasing printer safety.Notes:This firmware is the factory standard firmware of Ender-5 Plus. Support automatic leveling function, can switch nine languages (Chinese、English、Portuguese、German、French、Russian、Spanish、Italian、Turkish, default Portuguese). The Ender 5 Pro, with its stable, box-framed form, has outer dimensions of 440 x 410 x 465 mm (X-Y-Z). The size was inherited from its predecessor, the Ender 5. What does it improve? Stops the filament from wearing away at the feeder arm, reduces resistance on the filament, improves the extruder’s rigidity The inclusion of a metal extruder kit is a small change, the benefit of which only shows up later as there is less wear and greater stability. Mainboard upgrade: Reduces motor noise, increases processing power, adds features like linear advance.

If you need a machine and don’t buy it, then you will ultimately find that you have paid for it and don’t have it.” Ender 5 Pro As for the product, when correctly installed and configured (according to the notes above), it is a five star product, I am extremely happy with it. By upgrading to a tougher and more durable all-metal extruder, you reduce potential maintenance down the line. Doing so also increases print success with flexible materials thanks to a smoother filament path that reduces scraping, breaking, and jamming issues. On the right side of the printer, an LCD display attached to the gantry lets you directly operate the device. The rotating dial lets you navigate the menu and select the printing settings in just a few steps.

This can lead to fraying and filament snapping issues. With a Bowden Strain Relief mount installed, you can easily avoid these problems. Extruder Arm: this add-on shortens the Bowden extruder to lighten the weight of the direct extruder on the moving components.
