QIDI Plus5 3D Printer

The QIDI Plus5 is an industrial-grade, enclosed CoreXY 3D printer featuring an expanded 320 × 320 × 300 mm build volume, a 370°C bimetal hotend, and a 65°C active chamber heating system. Engineered for continuous manufacturing and functional prototyping, it eliminates warping in high-shrinkage polymers (ABS, ASA, PA-CF, PC, PPS) while delivering toolhead speeds up to 600 mm/s and 20,000 mm/s² acceleration on heavy-duty 9mm 1.5GT belts.

Key Performance Engineering

1. Active 65°C Chamber & 370°C Thermal Pipeline

• Isothermal Chamber Control: An integrated 400W PTC convection heater and circulation fan maintain a steady 65°C ambient environment. This keeps engineering polymers above their glass transition threshold during deposition, suppressing internal shear stress, corner lifting, and inter-layer delamination on large cross-section prints.

• 370°C Bimetal Hotend: The high-flow direct-drive extruder houses a hardened steel insert capable of handling abrasive carbon-fibre, glass-fibre, and high-temp resins (PAHT-CF, PET-CF, PPS-CF, PPA-GF) without thermal creep or premature bore wear.

• 120°C Silicone Heatbed: Rapid-heating aluminium core delivers uniform edge-to-edge heat distribution across the entire 320 × 320 mm double-sided textured PEI spring steel sheet.

• Reinforced CoreXY Kinematics & Dual-Lead Z-Axis

  • 9mm 1.5GT Synchronous Belts: Upgraded from standard 6mm belts, the 9mm profile increases tooth engagement and torsional stiffness, reducing belt stretch and ringing artefacts at accelerations up to 20,000 mm/s².

  • Structural Guidance: Hardened optical linear rails on the X-axis combined with ground linear rods on the Y-axis provide smooth, repeatable carriage trajectories.

  • Decoupled Dual Z-Axis: Two independent stepper motors power dedicated lead screws, braced by four precision guide shafts to eradicate bed tilt and pitch deviations during long-format print jobs.

  3. Contact-Based Load Cell Auto-Levelling

  • True Zero-Offset Calibration: The printhead uses direct nozzle-to-bed strain gauges to register physical contact coordinates. This mechanical probing loop accounts for thermal expansion dynamically, generating an accurate bed mesh without manual Z-offset calibration or inductive probe drift.

  4. Air Quality & Environmental Management

  • 3-Stage Air Scrubbing: High-temp engineering runs generate styrene emissions and ultrafine particulates. The built-in filtration unit pairs activated carbon with HEPA filtration to neutralise volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and particulates before exhaust.

  • Split Ventilation Architecture: A retractable top glass panel allows quick heat dissipation for thermal-sensitive filaments like PLA and TPU, preventing heat creep without removing structural panels.

  5. Multi-Material Readiness & AI Monitoring

  • Multi-Colour Ecosystem: Fully compatible with the QIDI Box system for automated material switching and support-material integration across up to 16 channels.

  • 1080p HD AI Camera: Real-time remote inspection, automated spaghetti/failure detection, and high-resolution time-lapse capture via QIDI Studio and mobile apps.
