Interchangeable Hotend
Equipped with an interchangeable hotends system that allows you to easily exchange the hotend without the use of any tools.
This system opens the possibility for you to choose which hotend configuration best suits the job, you can choose between different nozzle diameters, high temperatures, or component's toughness.
Don't waste time with jams or complicated maintenance, just change the hotend and keep the prints going.
Removable Magnetic flexible Print Sheet
With the flexible build plate, the experience of removing the part from the plate has never been easier.
The build plate is composed of a smooth side and a textured side, allowing you to choose the appearance of the base of the print.
The PEI coating gives a better part adhesion to the plate for a wide range of materials, mostly without the need to use adhesion products.
Full-body aluminum structure and industrial-grade
A sturdy aluminum structure guarantees the strength and durability of your printer and all the components that are part of it.
Every component that is used in our printer passes through strict quality control to ensure that the printer leaves our production line perfect for the user.
LCD with intuitive UI
High Capacitive LCD with an intuitive and well-designed UI that guides you through every feature and functionality of our printer.
It also has a guide to walk you through the maintenance process and the calibration process.
This LCD also has the feature of STL viewer.
Filament flow and runout sensor
In order to optimize print quality and filament management, the R21 is equipped with two filament sensors:
One detects the presence of a filament and in the case of the filament breaking or ending, it allows reloading a new filament and continuous printing
The second sensor monitors the extrusion flow. This means that in the case of clogging or lack of extrusion due to some other reason, this sensor will activate and allow the user to fix the problem.
