About this deal

Generally speaking, neither the Ender 3 nor 5 falter in print quality, but given the Ender 5’s improved movement, upgraded design so parts don’t bump together, and more reliable safety protocols, it wins overall for more consistently successful prints. Ender 3 vs Ender 5 Price Petsfang– A go-to design for many tinkerers looking for an Ender 3 and Ender 5 cooling fan upgrade.

Stable Z-axis Lead screw drive smoothly and steady. The movement of the build plate will be more stable. Ender 5 Plus Unboxing Build&Set-Up But, with invaluable help from the Ender 5 community, subsequent firmware updates mean the BLTouch now works as intended with great results on all Ender 5 Plus models. Another win for the Ender 5 Plus in our book; no one likes the hair-pulling frustration of manual bed leveling. In my experience, however, the print quality is slightly better with the Sprite direct drive extruder of the Ender-5 S1. Conclusion: Ender-5 S1 or Ender-5 Pro? – Which is Better? The heated platform lets you successfully print with PLA and PETG straight out the box. Even if showing some warping issues, printing with ABS and ASA is also possible.UpFitters Ender 3 Enclosure – A premium option for 3D UpFitters, this enclosure features see-through panels and an array of optional add-ons. There’s an Ender 3 version and Ender 5 version available. Other than being a better all-round and quieter board than previous Creality’s electronics, the V4.2.2 also includes a bootloader, allowing you to easily upgrade the firmware. On previous Enders, upgrading required a laborious process involving a third-party single-board computer like an Arduino. This is all much easier here and both machines score points in that respect.

The bed is manually calibrated. The easy-to-turn large dials placed at the corners of the bed makes the process faster. If you want to automatize the operation, you can mod the printer by installing a BLTouch auto bed leveling system. The 10cm Cali Dragon was printed in PETG and it came out great. Good overhangs, consistent extrusion, and a tiny bit of stringing caused by the filament being a bit too old. But I am happy with the results.Ultra Large Printing Format: 350X350X400mm | Meet more of your printing requirements, enable more ideas to be printed out, achieve better print results, and a larger print model at a time. The Creality Ender-3 V3 KE high-speed 3D printer comes with extensive upgrades and a touch of intelligence over the previous V2 series, making it the second-to-none choice for both beginners and hobbyists. Boasting a top printing speed of 500mm/s and acceleration of 5000mm/s², the Ender-3 V3 KE significantly improves the printing efficiency – a benchy can be printed in just 15 minutes and 8 seconds, shifting your 3D printing experience into a higher gear. Palette– a paid for upgrade, the Palette is an add-on filament splicer that allows you to mix and match colors and material types. It’s compatible with both the Ender 3 and Ender 5. Because it’s open-source, the Ender 3 has become well-known for its various community-shared modifications, too. Add-ons and non-official Ender 3 upgrades have made it the tinkerer’s dream in 3D printing.

The result of the detailed comparison between the Ender-5 S1 and the Ender-5 Pro is that the Ender-5 S1 is better in just about everything. I was able to move most of the tolerance tests (up to 0.2mm) so I think this can be a successful print if a better filament is used. By now you’re probably asking yourself the same question many of us have. If the Creality Ender 3 is such a powerhouse, then why pay more for the Ender 5? Creality Spider High-Temperature Hot End– An affordable option from Creality that’s guaranteed to play nice with both the Ender 3 and Ender 5. Not the cleanest benchy out there, but decent results, even though the ringing effect can be seen on the bow.As you can see above, there’s not much separating the two printers when it comes to max nozzle and heated bed temperatures. The Ender 5’s ability to offer an extra 5°C nozzle temperature gives you a bit more headroom to experiment with heat-sensitive materials, but much like build volume, the difference is marginal.

In this example, the visible layers printed at 0.12mm height add mood to the whole scene well-representing the skin of the dragon. As we have already said, the Ender 5 is capable of delivering high-quality prints right out of the box. By the way, its open-source nature is a great opportunity for making the printer better than it already is. The Ender 5 comes with the axes already assembled. To build it up, you’ll only need to screw the Z-axis and the base unit together and do the wiring. Generally, the whole process takes 30 minutes. The printer’s case and touch screen are combined into one smooth unit at the base of the machine and the spool holder is mounted sideways to the frame. All this keeps the footprint small and mostly square. Creality earned its fame by having fully open-source hardware and firmware, even making their full specs available to anyone who wants them. Both official and non-official upgrades and modifications are all over the internet for both models.

Putting It Together

A steel transmission shaft connects and synchronizes the two Y-axis belts, significantly increasing durability and precision without compromising on the print speed. Our firmware does NOT use Marlin Auto Build. Do not use Marlin Auto Build with our firmware. Use the directions below instead. Multiple CPU Support (If Applicable) # With some types of filament, humidity and UV radiation can cause it to become brittle. With a filament sensor, breaking is also only a minor problem, since you can then add more directly. Touchscreen Ender-5 S1 Ender-5 Pro
