What's the reason? What is it that makes the Raise3D Pro2 3D printer a superior printer over its predecessor? We're glad you have asked...
While the Raise3D Pro2 and N2 share some similarities however, there's several enhancements and new features in the most recent version. In the beginning the Pro2 provides a stunning printing resolution, and brings the minimum thickness of layers lower to 0.01mm.
Its Raise3D Pro2 3D printer is also equipped with a new dual-gear driven extruder, which provides greater grip on filament and more reliable extrusion of materials. Its new design is about 50% faster than one with the N2. The new extruder also has enhancements on the dual extrusion process, which includes nozzles that are recessed until they are needed.
The 3D printer comes with an V2 hotend capable of printing up to 300deg C and is therefore compatible with almost every FDM 3-D printer that you can think of. It is also possible to keep an eye on your prints using the Pro2's high-resolution built-in camera.
It also features an interchangeable magnetic print bed system that allows users to effortlessly switch plates for build and improve print quality. The company has labeled the new printing bed "aerospace-grade", using a thermally heated silicone pad under it.
The most recent printer from Raise3D comes with upgraded extruder motors, which come with sensors for filament runout. Raise3D Pro2 Raise3D Pro2 includes a new cooling fan, which has an HEPA filter, which catches more than 90% of all contaminants , and keep dust and other debris out from prints.
If you look into the insides of Raise3D Pro2, you'll also discover a brand new and improved 32-bit ARM Cortex M7 controller. This motherboard has been designed to keep print quality intact as the nozzle moves at higher speeds.
