Review on πŸ–¨οΈ TRONXY Industrial Grade Precision 3D Printer - 330x330x400mm Structure by Jared Bradford

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Consistently mediocre prints at a decent price.

Printer assembly was relatively successful. There was no plastic element in the box that serves to attach the glow sensor. However, I managed to create a working replacement out of a piece of cork wood. After a few days of setting up the printer, I'm not entirely happy with the print quality. The outer walls are not aligned as well as one would expect from a properly assembled printer. A change in wall thickness can be seen at irregular intervals over the entire length of the print. This suggests that the problem is with the machine and not with a simple fix like the Z axis wobbling All the belts are properly tensioned and there is no slack in the pulley that could explain the source of the problem. Currently I can no longer improve the print quality. The printer is very stable and feels solid. The interface isn't always intuitive, and most new users seem to smash the printhead on the platform the first time they print, because it's not clear if the "z-offset" program needs to be run after the printer is built. The printed surface grips the filament very well with zero layer adhesion issues, but so far I've only used PLA filament. Although the print quality isn't up to the level I need, I didn't find any printing defects. I would not recommend this printer for a first time owner, it is best suited for the experienced 3D printer hobbyist as it requires some additional setup and troubleshooting experience.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • No performance
