Artillery SW-X2 2021

Fused filament fabrication (FFF/FDM) F2 · Intermediate

Those who print large objects like cosplay helmets or drone frames find in the Sidewinder X2 a 300x400mm build volume that is unattainable under €250. Compared to an Ender 3 V2 (€200 less), it offers direct drive for flexibles, silent drivers, and a leveling probe, with a 50% larger area. For €200 more, a Bambu Lab A1 guarantees speed and automatic calibration but a 256x256x256mm volume and Bowden extruder. The main limitation is the lack of automatic Z offset compensation, which requires initial manual adjustment.
