The Raise3D Pro3 Series 3D Printer consists of two professional dual-extruder FFF 3D printers, the Pro3 and the Pro3 Plus, which are primarily differentiated by their build volume, particularly the maximum print height.
Key Differences in Build Volume
The fundamental distinction lies in the Z-axis (height) capacity:
- Raise3D Pro3: Offers a build volume of $\mathbf{300 \times 300 \times 300 \text{ mm}}$ ($11.8 \times 11.8 \times 11.8 \text{ inches}$).
- Raise3D Pro3 Plus: Provides a significantly taller build volume of $\mathbf{300 \times 300 \times 605 \text{ mm}}$ ($11.8 \times 11.8 \times 23.8 \text{ inches}$).
For dual-extruder printing, the usable width is reduced in both models to $\mathbf{255 \times 300 \times \text{Height mm}}$, with the height being $300 \text{ mm}$ for the Pro3 and $605 \text{ mm}$ for the Pro3 Plus. All other core technical specifications and features are shared between the two models.
Shared Professional Features and Reliability
The Raise Pro3 Series 3D Printer is engineered for precision, reliability, and round-the-clock stable operation in professional settings, building on the legacy of the Pro2 Series.
Extrusion and Printing Platform
- Dual Extrusion System: Both models utilize a modular dual-extrusion system with a single-side nozzle lifting technology (not a full IDEX, but with fast electronic switching). This allows for multi-material or multi-color printing, including soluble support materials like PVA, which is critical for complex geometries.
- Interchangeable Hot End: The hot ends are designed for quick, tool-free replacement and are compatible with various nozzle sizes (0.2 to 1.0 mm) and materials (brass, stainless steel), supporting diverse filaments up to $\mathbf{300^\circ\text{C}}$.
- Enhanced Platform: Features include automatic bed leveling for quick setup, a flexible steel build plate for easy part removal, and a 75% increase in Z-axis rod stiffness for more stable, high-quality prints.
Smart and Operational Features
- EVE Smart Assistant: A built-in intelligent system that proactively monitors the printer, diagnoses common issues, and provides users with guided solutions and maintenance reminders, which significantly reduces downtime and maintenance costs.
- Air Flow Manager: An optimized system at the rear improves heat dissipation and internal air circulation, creating a stable print environment. It’s equipped with a HEPA filter with activated charcoal for air purification, making the enclosed printer safer for indoor use.
- Reliability Features: They include a second-generation power loss recovery function and filament run-out sensors to save and resume print jobs, minimizing material waste and lost print time.
- Monitoring: An integrated HD camera connects to RaiseCloud software, enabling real-time, remote monitoring of the print process.
Ecosystem
The printers are integrated into the Raise3D ecosystem, utilizing the free ideaMaker slicing software and the cloud-based print management platform RaiseCloud for efficient workflow and remote control.
