Sidewinder X4 Plus

Artillery SW-X4-PLUS 2024
Fused filament fabrication (FFF/FDM) F2 · Intermediate

A maker who daily prints large parts in PLA/PETG for cosplay or prototypes prefers Artillery Sidewinder X4 Plus over printers that cost 200€ less like the Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo because the 300x300x400mm build volume and 500mm/s maximum speed with preset input shaping reduce production times. Compared to a Creality K1C or Bambu Lab P1P costing 200€ more, the X4 Plus offers a larger build plate and the same dual gear direct drive, but lacks an enclosure and Klipper control, limiting the use of ABS and remote monitoring. The machine is ideal for productivity with common materials without advanced management, but is inadequate for printing engineering polymers in an enclosed chamber or custom firmware integrations.

Filaments for this printer

The materials this printer can print according to its specifications (nozzle and bed temperature, enclosed chamber), with spools sold online.

Fibre-filled spools (carbon, glass) are not in this list: they wear out brass nozzles. You will find them on the material page.

Ecosystem

Software

Compatible with Artillery Slicer and Cura; the Marlin firmware accepts standard G-code, so it works with PrusaSlicer, SuperSlicer, OrcaSlicer. WiFi file transfer does not offer a Klipper web interface, limiting remote monitoring and real-time adjustments.
