Assembly should also be very easy for this upgrade. All you have to do is unscrew the four bolts holding the extruder stepper motor to its Z-axis carriage, remove the plastic assembly, and screw in the new metal one. To help you compare these printers, we will look at various factors that you’ll want to consider when purchasing a 3D printer, and compare the Ender 3 and the Ender 3 Pro on each of these points.

This Helix Test Cube printed at 200% is pretty good at showing up imperfections on a print, and it also does a bridging test. Unfortunately, the white PETG I used was not that fresh, and it might have contributed to the higher amount of stringing present on the model. You can also see the same inconsistency on some layers where a higher amount of retractions were needed. The print object then releases almost by itself when you bend the print bed. The print bed adhesion could be a bit better but can be improved with special adhesives like Magigoo. With a rotary wheel for the extruder, you can insert the filament more easily by hand. The Ender 3 V2 already has a suitable rotary wheel, the Ender 2 Pro does not. The flexible and magnetic print bed of the Ender 2 Pro can be removed from the printing plate after printing. This way you can easily detach your print objects from the print bed. What does it improve: Reduces extrusion issues by providing a tighter diameter tolerance around the filament

The assembly of the Ender 2 Pro is easier than that of the Ender 3 V2. Since the Ender 2 Pro is already mostly pre-assembled, you only need to connect a few parts, plug in the cables and mount the display. With the Ender 3 V2, you need a few more steps because the 3D printer is only partially pre-assembled. Light and Portable, you can carry Ender-2 Pro 3d printer everywhere: As light as 4.65kg, with a size comparable to a desktop fan. Equipped with an easy-to-carry handle, its lightweight design makes it super easy to move.

Both printers use the same extruder, which uses a single gear drive with a plastic body, which we suggest upgrading to a metal one for improved reliability. ChassisCompared to the Prusa Mini and the KP3S, the Ender 2 Pro has a smaller build volume on the X and Y axis. 15 mm doesn’t seem too much, but considering that the aforementioned printers take a bit less space and have a bigger print volume, the Ender 2 Pro falls a bit behind. The efficient part cooling and the stable construction allow the smallest details. The accuracy is comparable to 3D printers in the next price range, such as the Ender 3 V2. comparable to 3D printers in the next price range, such as the Ender 3 V2. While Creality implemented many Ender 3 upgrades into the design of the Ender 2 Pro, the printer still features a plastic extruder assembly. Plastic extruders are known to wear down significantly after a few months of printing, and this can cause issues to arise around the printer’s extrusion. You can replace the original plastic assembly with a metal extruder that won’t degrade as easily to provide more reliable extrusion for the Ender 2 Pro. A filament sensor detects whether the filament is used up. It is located directly in front of the extruder and works either with an optical sensor or mechanically. Neither the Ender 3 V2 nor the Ender 2 Pro have this feature.

In this article, you will find the perfect settings for the Ender 3 V2: Best Cura Settings for the Ender 3 – Guide & List Print Quality The printhead cover looks nice, and it covers the 4010 radial fan located at the right of the hotend. This fan is probably enough considering the print speeds and the print size of this printer, but there’s clearly space for having two fans inside the shroud. Adding an extra fan would have increased the cost of the printer with a dollar or two, but it would have improved the part cooling performance significantly. Plastic Single Gear Extruder

As light as 4.65kg, with a size comparable to a desktop fan. Equipped with an easy-to-carry handle, its lightweight design makes it super easy to move. Samonosná konstrukce, vyztužená pevným blokem osy Z, zajišťuje lehký design a stabilitu během celého procesu tisku.

Important: The standoffs for the touch screen have small gaps - so please insert some pieces of foam between the standoffs and the touch screen. The glass print bed of the Ender 3 V2 is not flexible but offers excellent print bed adhesion for most materials.The Creality Ender 2 Pro has an option to adjust the Z height while printing, called Babystep Z. This is located under Tune in the main menu and is only visible while the printer is printing. Negative numbers lower the nozzle, while positive numbers move it up. I had a small sample of Extrudr ASA filament so I thought I could try it out on the Ender 2 Pro with the Flexy Puppy to see how well does it handle higher temperature filaments. As you can see, the quality is pretty good on sections where there’s not a lot of retraction needed. In other places, there is inconsistent extrusion and I blame this on the high pressure which builds up in the hotend. The stable design of the cantilever X-axis guarantees low-vibration movement and thus delivers high accuracy. With a single Z-axis lead screw that moves an X-axis carriage (where the printhead moves side-to-side) up and down. Along with great features, the K1 represents Creality's relentless commitment to creators, constantly pushing the boundaries. It embodies a relentless pursuit of excellence, providing more than just a printer, but the key to innovation and limitless creativity. Older user interface - Both the Ender 3 and Ender 2 Pro have the same interface, utilizing a knob-controlled single-color LCD. More premium 3D printers tend to use larger multi color LCDs which use touch screens.
