#3DPrinting, #IDEX, #Review - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
An excellent, informative, level headed review. The video is logically structured, edited, super high quality and visually rich. The content is to the point and 100% bs free, which is a rare treat. Your test engineer approach adds a technical edge to the narrative and answers the questions that come to mind during viewing. Your practical suggestions concerning the shortcomings you found are helpful. The printed samples at the end illustrate the range of the printer efficiently. Well done! Keep it up.
Another comprehensive video. Good stuff dombi
This is a brilliant review, thank you! I have had this machine for a few months, it's been great so far, very happy with it. I agree with all your comments, I think overall the positives far outweigh the negatives. I've done some interesting prints with flexible TPU and PLA, the TPU is mechanically constrained within the PLA for flexible hinges, the IDEX is great for this. I'm about to try printing with PC so your tip on blocking the cooling fan will be very helpful. Also your process of bed levelling is interesting, I hadn't realised there was more info on level within the slicer, I will take a look at this!
Seems a lot better than their previous printers, but has some fine details to work out. Thanks for the video!
Thumbs up for this excellent review.
Very good and helpful review!
Have you been able to do any test prints with either ABS-CF or PC-CF?
Just to verify, print volume is the same whether printing with single or double head?
this video did not disappoint.
Really well done review. This is a nice machine for sure. I have the latest Creator Pro 2 and really like it. The idex compared to the dreamer that I had is a great upgrade. Idex makes a huge difference in duel color printing quality IMO. Thanks for this informative review. I just subscribed... ;-)
Great review, thanx. I also have v1 with some mods from v2 and using it for about of 1.5 years. Auto leveling before a print was disabled in some recent version of firmware but introduced again, yes it little bit annoying cause the frame is very stiff and z axis repeatability is very high.
Great review!
great review... thanks.
Great video!
I just ordered this 3d printer. Hope it will work fine. Im intrested to use carbon-nylon filament to print rc-car parts. Thanks for a great review, thanks!
nice video editing skills!
Thank you. Did you notice any difference in print between standard leveling procedure, and the more accurate manual guage process that you did later in the video?
Great review! I assumed that you could set an idle temperature for each toolhead for when they are not in use in FF's slicer and that you could set appropriate level of part cooling for each toolhead? Those are pretty basic functions..
Hey Dombil!
Happy for you that your channel has reached that size!
The Flash Forge Printers are quite nice,
but they have a relatively small build volume and build quality.
I would never buy this printer for this price.
For around 3000 Dollar you can get more than 4 Prusa printers.
I would prefer even only one Prusa to the flash forge.
It's €1800 incl tax where I live
I just found this Video because i am interessted in an creator 3. Did you know if Flashforge fixed the Firmware issues where you recommend?
Hello and thanks for a good review. i am looking for an printer that i can print Abs and carbon wood and ofc tpu. what is your sugestion for a good quality printer that also have a desent price tagg under 1500US?
Hi, thanks for this informative insight. I don't know if you still read old comments but I'm kinda torn between FF3 Pro and Qidi I-Fast (no IDEX, but still dual extruder). Price is similar but I was wondering if you had a chance to test them both. My main concern regarding FF3Pro is the noise level. For Qidi is their limited support regarding the firmware/slicer (at least what I could find based on the reviews).
Thanks,
Blichew
Hi! I got no request from Qidi to test their 3D printer so I have no experience with it.
Please do a review on the adventurer 3 3D printer and adventurer 3 lite and the Adventurer 4 by flash forge and compare them please.
What other brand printer is this most comparable too
does it purge any filament before every tool changes?
do you have any non-time lapse footage of the tool changes?
No it does not. I already took off the buckets at the side because with the new anti oozing plate method it is not required any more (it was meant to be used with the brushed version.)
@@Dombi3D whaaat.
I thought you'd get weakened over extruded filament and buldging if you don't purge.
I'm gonna try the same method on my tool changer honestly now, I purge 15mm every tool change and it adds up to 45g~ of filament every 300 tool changes. And it takes time too.
If the company already tested the printer with filaments how comes you need to do all the calibration again?
Based on your time with this printer would you be confident in its abilities to reliably print PA-HT filled with carbon fiber?
Hi Andrew, I have not printed with those materials on this printer yet so I could not tell.
In your opinion, which is the best and reliable 3D printer with direct driver extruder and at least 300mm x 250mm printing area? Could be idex or single extruder. I need to print insoles in TPU. Maximum 300mm long. But I’m not a specialist… so I prefer to buy a printer with no need for modifications. Cheers
Check out if the 250x220mm bed area of the Prusa MK3s in diagonal would fit for your size.
I have experience with those 3D printers, and they are reliable: shop.prusa3d.com/#a_aid=Dombi3D
I also have a Creality Ender 5 Plus which has the volume you need (350x350x400mm) but I have already made some modifications on it to print well with TPU.
@@Dombi3D many thanks for your feedback
what firmware is it using?
where can I get the version 2 ? I Only see the first one available. help me Dombi Juan Konobi, you are my only hope
As I said in the video since 2019 December all Creator 3 are V2. So if you order now a new Creator 3 it has to be V2. The easiest way to recognise it is the 4 fans at the back.
@@Dombi3D THANKS BUDDY IM ON IT
The filament tubes still scar up the plastic lid? It's still way overpriced!
GREAT job at the video. Flashforge got many things right but I think Ultimaker 5s is better.
Yeah, and 10 times the price!
can it resume from power loss?
It can not!
Werlp time to save up 2,700 dollars :P
It only goes 220 max temp 😂
I have 2 of these machines and im really dissapointed after 7months of ownership my mainboard has failed. Flashforge claim this is an industrial machine but the main part of this machine has failed. Mainboard is also very expensive to replace.
Should been in warrenty right?
Will you sell me yours used?
Reply to this comment if you still need one. I know a youtuber that does.
2400 pounds?! 😵
220 max temp? Why even bother
Maximum extruder temp is 300.
