General Information

The Ender 5 Plus can be found inside the Clean Room.

The purpose of this page is to give a more in-depth look at the Ender 5 Plus 3D Printer.

If you have any issues with Clean Room equipment, the slack channels associated with this space include: #general, ##general, #shop-3d-printing, and #shop-laser.

Filament

Material- PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU, etc

  • PLEASE do not use old, moist filament in our printers. PLA especially. It will break off in multiple locations - both ends of the PTFE tube, inside the extruder, between the extruder and hotend. If I find a filament roll doing this, it will be retired

Brand-Most PLA and PETG available these days is of adequate quality. Sunlu, Polymaker and Overture are commonly used at the space

    • IIID Max is a great option if you're buying a lot. Free shipping and the lowest per kg prices right now
    • PushPlasticis my preferred vendor for large rolls. The filament spool holder I have available for the cr-10 max supports their rolls. Be wary, as the hole size for various vendors for 5kg+ spools can vary drastically.

Installing a print surface

Like the Bambu Printers, this printer has a removable build plate. We currently online have one surface available - a textured PEI sheet.

Using Bambu Studio
