Extra features The Ender 3 V1 is a DIY assembly 3D printer, a sales leader since 2017, standing out for its cost-benefit. With a wide printing capacity, it has a CNC machined structure for precision and stability. It offers high-precision prints with low noise, thanks to its innovative V-profile and pulleys. It has a self-adhesive magnetic platform for easy removal of models and excellent adhesion. The Ender 3 heats up quickly, reaching 100°C in 5 minutes, ideal for agile prints. It includes protection against power failures, allowing you to resume printing after interruptions, saving time and material. The Anycubic Mega S offers a printing platform with excellent adhesion, easy removal after cooling. It has a filament sensor for a better experience with flexible materials and a multilingual and intuitive color touchscreen. Assembly is quick, requiring only 8 screws and 3 connections. It has a large build volume (210 x 210 x 205 mm), high positioning accuracy and supports a variety of materials, including TPU, PLA, ABS and wood. It stands out for its solid metal structure, superior stability, high-quality printing with layer resolution of up to 50 microns, Ultrabase for easy adhesion and removal of parts, resumption of printing after power outage, high-quality extruder for flexible filaments, suspended filament support and stable structure that reduces shaking, improving printing quality. The Longer LK4 is a versatile 3D printer capable of working with a wide range of filaments, such as PLA, ABS, TPU, copper, wood and carbon fiber, thanks to its 0.4mm nozzle and heated bed up to 110°C. With a printing accuracy of between 0.05-0.4mm, it stands out for its solid construction with an aluminum frame, weighing around 7kg, and a robust 24V and 15A power supply. The kit includes an Allen key, a 7/10 key, a microSD card with USB adapter, a spatula, cable ties, a power cable, 5m of filament and a spare filament end sensor. Assembly is simplified, with around 90% of the equipment pre-assembled, and detailed instructions assist in the process. Special features include print recovery after power failure, a filament end sensor, a super-adhesive printing surface and an intuitive color touchscreen display. The design features smooth profiles for easy assembly, and the position of the filament holder optimizes the filament path to the extruder. The LK4 is a solid choice for 3D printing enthusiasts looking for quality and versatility.
