The ultimate, all-out, function or nothing, no-compromises printer.
(The bom still heavily compromises on lower quality parts and extra functionality in order to make the budget better fit the constraints of hackclub, and the majority of parts are being scrapped from my previous projects.)
Primarily recycling an ender 5 plus, this printer is inspired by machines like the prusa XL, snapmaker u1, voron stealthchanger, prusa core one INDX, bambulab h2c, and VZ330. With it's emphasis on pure performance and functionality, it features:
- 377x377x400mm Build Volume
- CoreXY Motion System: Closed-loop servo system based on Falcon 500 and ODrive
- 9mm GT3 Belt System Gantry: Features liveshafts and double shear
- Lightweight X-Axis: Optimized aluminum tube design
- 1kW Mains Heated Bed
- 1kW Chamber Heating System: Intelligent power-sharing with the bed and hotends for dynamic power limits
- Muffled CPAP Cooling System
- Chamber Ventilation
- Structural Steel Panels
- Dual-Layer Protection for mains-powered devices
- Active VFA Compensation: Utilizes anticogging and lookup-table calibration
- Safety & Monitoring: CAN bus watchdog and fully closed-loop servo monitoring
- Automatic Self-Health Checking routines for the gantry
- Eddy-Current Based high-speed bed probing
- High-Performance Motion & Meltzone: Supports sustained speeds of 1000mm/s+ with extreme acceleration
- Automatic Purging and nozzle cleaning
- Z-Axis Input Shaping
- Rapid Toolchanging System
- Multi-Lane MMU/Toolchanger Extrusion System: Shares filaments across multiple toolchangers or a single-nozzle indexer
- Active Synchronized Extrusion Assistant: A hybrid Bowden and direct-drive setup
- Active Closed-Loop Filament Odometry: Real-time tracking for clogs, jams, or maximum flow rate testing
- FOC Extruder Motor
- Triple-Motor Kinematic Bed with automatic tramming/leveling
- Blackbox External System Monitor: Features an integrated contactor for advanced safety cutoff
