Sidewinder X3 Plus

Artillery SW-X3-PLUS 2023

A maker who regularly prints functional parts in ABS or TPU and needs the 300×300×400 mm volume finds in the Sidewinder X3 Plus a unique proposition around €400, because it offers a 300°C nozzle, 100°C bed, and dual-gear direct-drive without modifications. Compared to a €200 printer, it adds 100 mm of height and the ability to handle flexible materials; those who spend €200 more on a CoreXY gain speed and quietness, but end up with lower Z volumes. Manual leveling and noise make it suitable for a workshop or garage, not a quiet home environment.

Software

The STM32 board runs Marlin and communicates via USB Type-C or TF card; it works with any standard slicer (Cura, PrusaSlicer, Simplify3D) without proprietary restrictions. Lack of Wi-Fi requires physical transfer of G-code files, but ensures full offline control.

Reviews from those who use this machine every day will be available in the next version of the platform.
