Review on Creality 3DPrintMill Infinite Continuous Upgraded by Shane Minter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The only tricky part was the alignment.

I have several tape printers and this was by far the easiest setup ever. Assembly takes less than 1 hour as most of the machine is pre-assembled. If you have one of the Creality Wi-Fi boxes for that, do yourself a favor and throw it away. We were able to easily set up the printer at my local workshop using a Raspberry Pi and a webcam. Connected to Autodrop3d.com cloud and was able to share the printer with all Makerspace users. Using the Autodrop3d cloud allows us to set prices for the use of materials and charge credit card fees to users who print on them. It also handles all slicing and allows the admin to set up a slicing profile to prevent damage to the printer. Compared to the iFactory, the creality CR-30 is a bit easier to set up as it mostly comes assembled. The print volume is slightly lower than ifactory. The only downsides to the Creality machine are the use of plastic wheels versus the factory steel rollers and the multi-plate leveling system. Alignment took a lot longer with the CR-30, but you really only have to align the thing once, so a bit of upfront annoyance and frustration is tolerable.
