href=\"#qidi-x-max-3\"><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new&nbsp;<strong>QIDI X-Max<\/strong>&nbsp;3 does not come alone and also, within the 3 series, it has the&nbsp;<strong>X-Plus 3<\/strong>&nbsp;that have many features in common and some interesting differences between them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"QIDI X-Max 3 New Feature Showcase | New All-metal Frame

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starting with the similarities between both models, we find printers prepared to print at high speeds of up to a theoretical 600 mm\/s with&nbsp;<strong>accelerations of 20000 mm\/s2<\/strong>, of course to be able to reach these speeds the&nbsp;<strong>extrusion system has to be up to the task and for this they mount one with a theoretical flow of 35 mm\u00b3\/s<\/strong>.&nbsp;Interestingly,<strong>&nbsp;QIDI includes two hotends, one for the use of non-technical\/abrasive filaments such as PLA\/TPU and another for more technical filaments that will allow temperatures of up to 350 \u00b0C<\/strong>, theoretically allowing us to<strong>&nbsp;print materials such as PET-CF, PAHT-CF, ABS\/ASA, and other similar materials<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1453\" height=\"411\"

these&nbsp;<strong>speeds requires robust, precise, and reliable kinematics, so QIDI has built these printers using CoreXY kinematics<\/strong>.&nbsp;Mechanically speaking,&nbsp;<strong>QIDI<\/strong>&nbsp;has used&nbsp;<strong>axial linear guides<\/strong>&nbsp;that will allow fast movements, reducing inertia that affects our prints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

structural stability<\/strong>, especially taking into account the dizzying speeds that it promises to reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

1349px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also noteworthy is the&nbsp;<strong>print volume of<\/strong>&nbsp;both models, where the<strong>&nbsp;X-Max 3 has 325*325*315 mm and the X-Plus 3<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>280*280*270 mm<\/strong>.&nbsp;It should also be noted that it has a&nbsp;<strong>6 mm thick printing platform<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The QIDI X-Max 3, and the&nbsp;<strong>X-Plus 3<\/strong>, have a function that is going to be very interesting or in some cases essential if we want to work with some technical filaments&#8230;&nbsp;Heated enclosure.&nbsp;This&nbsp;<strong>heated enclosure will allow the printing area to be maintained up to about 65 \u00b0C, avoiding the effect of lack of adhesion to the platform (warping) or adhesion problems between layers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1453\" height=\"574\"

have support for our hermetically sealed filament spools that allow us to install desiccants<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>to keep moisture at bay<\/strong>, especially useful when working with moisture-sensitive filaments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, it should be noted that&nbsp;<strong>the machine is managed by Klipper<\/strong>, currently&nbsp;<strong>a version customized by QIDI&nbsp;<\/strong>and that we will talk about later in detail, which will allow you to get the most out of these machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ahora pasaremos a

own<\/strong>&nbsp;QIDI so, as far as we know today, we only have the options that QIDI can give us.<br>The nozzle type, on the other hand, has a similar format to the &#8220;standard&#8221; Volcano, although according to our tests, if we put one of this type, it extends 2mm more than the QIDI one, which can affect the layer ventilation system and the leveling sensor.<br>On the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/qidi3d.com\/collections\/x-max-3-accessories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"external\">QIDI website<\/a>&nbsp;we have all the accessories and spare parts in any case.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The printhead that mounts an extruder motor that directly supplies filament to the hotend, mounts a gear system with a ratio of 9.5:1, allowing to maintain of a&nbsp;<strong>theoretical flow of 35 mm3\/s<\/strong>, which is essential considering the speeds promised by this X-Max 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;<strong>hotend is very compact and easy to access, simply by removing the protective layer that has no screws.<\/strong>&nbsp;The&nbsp;<strong>ceramic heater that, like its nozzle, has a Volcano format that<\/strong>&nbsp;will ensure a good filament flow, of&nbsp;<strong>about 35mm\u00b3\/s depending on the type of filament, as well as being able to work up to 350\u00baC<\/strong>.&nbsp;The seeming use of nozzles of a proprietary QIDI size can make us dependent on them and limit the options to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img

cooling system.&nbsp;We think it&#8217;s insufficient, or it could have been better designed&#8230;&nbsp;The fan is of a small size in an area with low airflow and on top partially covered by the leveling sensor, for this machine in depending on the printing conditions generating some jams if we are not careful with<\/strong>&nbsp;our settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the same way, and according to our tests, using the filaments with which we normally work, the&nbsp;<strong>extrusion flow has not reached the promised values<\/strong>&nbsp;even with the PLA Rapido filament itself included,&nbsp;<strong>always remaining around 25mm\u00b3\/s<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continuing with the extrusion system part,&nbsp;<strong>we have an auxiliary layer ventilation system that will allow us to support the mounted on the print head for those filaments that need high airflow<\/strong>, especially when printing at high speeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1380\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/3dwork.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-29.png\"

reference to&nbsp;<strong>the bed or printing base, we have a 6mm aluminum base<\/strong>&nbsp;that helps our printing area not to have major deviations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;<strong>bed heater, 24v that will allow us to reach about 120\u00baC, and that<\/strong>&nbsp;has a dedicated power supply for it and another for the electronics

earlier<strong>when we referred to the extrusion system we indicated some theoretical maximum volumetric extrusion values of 35mm\u00b3\/s that in our tests with our filaments and printing conditions gave us a stable 25mm\u00b3\/s<\/strong>.<br><br><strong>Why is it important to calculate these values?<\/strong>&nbsp;Quite simply, the&nbsp;<strong>amount of volumetric extrusion in our extrusion system will directly limit the printing speed<\/strong>.<br><br>Luckily&nbsp;<strong>we have different ways to calculate our MVS value<\/strong>&nbsp;(or maximum volumetric speed) either with a manual extrusion test or from OrcaSlicer that has a test for it&#8230;&nbsp;Both options are explained in our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/labs.3dwork.io\/guias-impresion-3d\/calibracion_3d#15.-ajuste-de-extrusion-volumetrica-opcional\">calibration guide<\/a>.<br><br>Once it has been calculated if our laminator supports MVS, we can indicate the value obtained, so that the laminator itself calculates the speeds based on the MVS, or if it does not have it, then we must adjust the speeds correctly for extrusion traces so as not to exceed the limit&#8230;&nbsp;The formula to obtain that number The simplified formula, rolling mills use a more complex one using the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/e3d-online.com\/pages\/revo-high-flow-volumetric-flow-rate-calculator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"external\">calculation of the radius of the ends of an extrusion line<\/a>, would be:<br><br><strong>Speed (mm\/s) = VolumetricFlow (mm3\/s) \/ LayerHeight (mm) \/ LineWidth (mm)<br><\/strong><br>As an example, we saw some profiles using speeds of 600 mm\/sec (with accelerations of 20k mm\/s2) with a line width of 0.45 mm and layer height of 0.15 mm.&nbsp;If we apply the above formula, we find an MVS value of 40mm\u00b3\/s, far from the 35mm\u00b3\/s provided by QIDI and the 25mm\u00b3\/s obtained in our tests.<br><br>For our case of 25mm\u00b3\/s we will obtain and use the simplified formula:<br><strong><em>370 mm\/<\/em><\/strong>s&nbsp;<em>= 25 mm\u00b3\/s \/ 0.15 mm \/ 0.45 mm<\/em><br>As you can see, it&#8217;s far from the 600 mm\/s that we find in some of the profiles.<br><br>As a reminder, if we mentioned the use of the simplified formula before, it is because we have two ways to mathematically calculate the volumetric volume:<br>\u2013 Simplified Shape basically calculates taking into account a perfect square extrusion, so the formula would be:<br><strong><em>VolumetricFlow (mm3\/s) = Speed (mm\/s) * LayerHeight (mm) * LineWidth (mm)<\/em><\/strong><br>\u2013 the way the laminators, and more realistically, take into account the end curves that occur during an extrusion called Area of Stadium: AreaOfStadium (mm) =&nbsp;<em><strong>\u03c0 \u00d7 r2 + 2 \u00d7 r \u00d7 to VolumetricFlow (mm3\/s) = AreaOfStadium (mm) * Speed (mm\/s)<\/strong><\/em><br><br>These calculations are important because they are more realistic and can significantly affect if we do not add a margin to the simplified formula, for example for a line width of 0.6 mm, a layer height of 0.3 mm and a speed of 100 mm\/s:<br>\u2013 Using the simplified formula Speed (mm\/s) * LayerHeight (mm)&nbsp;<em><strong>* LineWidth (mm) = 18 mm3\/s<\/strong><\/em><br>\u2013 Using the formula used by laminators and more real&nbsp;<em><strong>AreaOfStadium (mm) * Speed (mm\/s) = 16.07

have been commenting in each case,&nbsp;<strong>we have loved the extrusion performance of the QIDI X-Max 3 with constant lines and no deficiencies&#8230;&nbsp;By carrying out proper tests and

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;<strong>QIDI X-Max 3 is aimed at a very demanding user<\/strong>, and perhaps that approach is one of its biggest problems on the other hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;<strong>large size of the printing area, prepared to work with technical materials thanks to its hotend, enclosure and integrated heater as well as the performance of its CoreXY kinematics make it a great machine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regarding the&nbsp;<strong>chassis, you may like it more or less aesthetically, which is also quite bulky and it is important that you take it into account when locating your machine, using apparently good quality plastics and protecting a robust metal chassis<\/strong>&#8230;&nbsp;as a good CoreXY machine should have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is a machine with a&nbsp;<strong>great performance that with a good fit we can work with a multitude of technical filaments in a reliable way<\/strong>&#8230;&nbsp;But there again are some of its shortcomings since&nbsp;<strong>some components such as the extrusion system penalize that experience leaving very little margin in the printing settings and these affect the result\/failures during the print<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In our case, working with<strong>&nbsp;filaments with a certain viscosity such as PETG or PCTG has been laborious for us to find the right configuration point.&nbsp;However with PLA, ASA\/ABS, PA-CF, and other similar filaments it has been a delight<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"343\"

machine for production environments and working with technical materials, as we already mentioned, has given us headaches has been the&nbsp;<strong>hotend\/printhead that tends to produce jams if we do not fine-tune the configuration well<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Improving the size or&nbsp;<strong>quality of materials in the heatsink and\/or fan and the airflow that cools it would likely be the solution to these problems<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The design of the hotend cover, the size of the fan, and the location of the leveling sensor blocking airflow don&#8217;t help.&nbsp;In any case,&nbsp;<strong>it is usually a problem that can be minimized with the fine adjustment for each filament since it is a closed machine, which sometimes we need to keep the temperature of the enclosure high along with the melting temperature of the filament and the quality\/type of this can make finding its &#8220;sweet&#8221; point for this type of machine requires some time in testing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also the&nbsp;<strong>PEI\/HF used has been somewhat rough with adhesion, always needing an additive to improve its adhesion in our case<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also found that, on very large parts,&nbsp;<strong>sometimes the contraction stress of the filament led to the HF peeling off the build platform minimally<\/strong>&nbsp;but enough to ruin our print&#8230;&nbsp;We have to clarify that it happened to us on a couple of occasions only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1720\" height=\"628\" src=\"https:\/\/3dwork.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-35.png\"

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;<strong>location of the filament spool holder as well as the airtight box at the rear of the machine is not the most convenient from our point of view<\/strong>.&nbsp;Yes, we understand that the filament is not handled constantly but when it is required it is a more cumbersome process considering the size\/weight of the machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In any case, and thanks to the community, we have mods to be able to place this one on the side.&nbsp;We provide you with the&nbsp;<a

that the system does not seem to us the best or most functional,<\/strong>&nbsp;although on the other hand and for certain&nbsp;<strong>technical filaments it is perfect that we have it to keep humidity at bay<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1737\" height=\"731\"

the electronic part, we&nbsp;<strong>found that the wiring was not &#8220;optimized\/ordered&#8221; for a machine of this approach<\/strong>, it should not be any problem in the operation of it but we believe that it is a detail of quality and detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The use of a&nbsp;<strong>Bltouch-style leveling sensor can give the feeling of a weak point of the machine, but clarifying that it is focused on printing technical filaments at high temperature, this type of sensors are usually the best because they are not affected so much by the temperature in their readings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1396\" height=\"547\" src=\"https:\/\/3dwork.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-31.png\" alt=\"- - -\" class=\"wp-image-35504\" title=\"- -\" srcset=\"https:\/\/3dwork.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-31.png

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We&nbsp;<strong>believe that the location of the bed cable would have been a better option if it were not located next to the heating system of the enclosure<\/strong>&nbsp;and in the long run it could be damaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the same way, and this is not only in these QIDI models but a general trend in current printers, we have an&nbsp;<strong>auxiliary layer fan that is great for certain filaments and speeds<\/strong>&#8230;&nbsp;But&nbsp;<strong>only assembling one on one of the sides often ends up affecting the final finish, especially with large pieces where one of the sides tends to cool down much more and we are more likely to fail the adhesion<\/strong>&nbsp;due to faster drying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although QIDI&nbsp;<strong>has done a great job on the simple and multi-choice machine management interface,<\/strong>&nbsp;it is still limited in some options if we compare it to a &#8220;pure&#8221; Klipper by using KlipperScreen or a theme for this customized by QIDI we think it would have been a better option&#8230;&nbsp;even penalizing the&nbsp;<strong>installation process with on-screen visual aids which we think is very successful and simplifies the process<\/strong>.&nbsp;Although it moves with ease, the interface in the menus we found that when loading the preview of the file to be printed, it was done slowly and line by line.&nbsp;Again, it doesn&#8217;t matter for use but they are quality details that leave a certain bad taste in your mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"494\"

version customized by QIDI<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><strong>Manufacturers in general without talking specifically about QIDI, either because of the possibilities or because of fashion, are making the leap to Klipper and this is something that has its advantages and disadvantages for both manufacturers and users.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>From the manufacturer&#8217;s side, they want to have control to minimize problems with their machines since a low-level control such as Klipper provides, which on the one hand is an advantage, can turn into a disaster in certain scenarios such as users without a Klipper base or trying to change configurations<\/strong>&#8230;&nbsp;And in the end, the normal thing is not to think that it is our fault as a user but to complain to the manufacturer.&nbsp;But on the part of the medium\/<strong>advanced users who see how their powerful machines are limited in functions that they could have and depend on the manufacturer to give good support and follow-up to their Klipper implementations, something that in the medium\/long term and due to the experience of<\/strong>&nbsp;many years we doubt that it will be so.&nbsp;<strong>Sticking with a very capable machine, limited and outdated in options with respect to what it could have<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1701\" height=\"353\"

we&nbsp;<strong>tried to integrate our QIDI with our Spoolman filament management system supported by Moonraker for a few versions and it was impossible for us because of the versions we have in the QIDI version<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps Spoolman is not something critical for most users, it is just an example of how a&nbsp;<strong>personalized and outdated distribution by a manufacturer can affect us when it comes to having all the improvements that Klipper can bring us<\/strong>.&nbsp;Let&#8217;s hope, as other manufacturers are beginning to do, that they release or facilitate the use of official versions for Klipper that, although they invalidate the warranty, will allow us to have our machines updated in the long term and provide the appropriate means to be able to restore if official versions occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, QIDI, a point for them,&nbsp;<strong>have integrated KAMP into their Klipper distribution for the X-Max 3 which undoubtedly improves the leveling experience and accuracy in this by dynamically adjusting to the printing area of the part.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An aspect that we also liked is that&nbsp;<strong>we have support for several laminators and we are not limited to the QIDI Slicer, a fork of PrusaSlicer, choosing OrcaSlicer and<\/strong>&nbsp;adjusting the default profile to our liking and taking as a base the filament profiles of QIDI that were of great help and quite well adjusted by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"660\"
