Welcome back to Aurora Tech Channel. Today, I will be reviewing the QiDi X PLUS 3 printer, another fast printer that runs Klipper firmware. However, unlike those Klipper bed slingers, this X PLUS 3 is a CoreXY, fully enclosed machine, making it seem to be a real challenger for the BambuLab P1P and the X1 Carbon.

Let’s take a look at the hardware specs. It’s a CoreXY machine with a build volume of 280x280x270. It’s not only fully enclosed, but it also has an actively heated chamber that allows you to keep the ambient temperature up to 65C, the enclosure also comes with LEDs.

The stock machine comes with 2 sets of hotends: one regular hotend with a copper alloy nozzle that allows for the printing of regular filament like PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU, and one hotend with a hardened steel nozzle for printing Carbon fiber and other abrasive filaments. They are both high flow rate hotends that can reach up to 35mm/s³, and the maximum nozzle temperature can go up to 350C. The extruder is also a new design that uses a 9.5 to 1 gear ratio. For the cooling system, besides the hotend part cooling fan, it also has an auxiliary cooling fan installed on the right side of the machine.

The maximum acceleration is 20,000mm/s². It runs Klipper firmware using a 64-bit processor similar to the BigTreeTech CB1 or the Creality Sonic Pad. It uses TMC2209 with sensorless homing on the X and Y axis and uses an optical limit switch on the Z-axis. The Z-axis is supported by a dual Z-axis lead screw. For the motion system, the Y and Z axis are using linear rods, and the X-axis is using carbon rods. It comes with an inductive sensor for auto bed leveling, and the print surface is a double-sided PEI textured spring steel sheet. Other than the standard filament holder, it also comes with an airtight filament box that you can put a pack of desiccant inside.

The screen is a 5” touch screen. It supports WiFi and Ethernet network printing, and it has 2 power supplies that provide a combined power of 800W. It has a pretty nice appearance, and it has the same style as other QiDi printers. Despite the design of the motion system, the auxiliary fan and the hotend designs appear very similar to the BambuLab machines. Overall, the hardware specs seem pretty strong, and the machine is aggressively priced at $799. I would like to thank QiDi for sending me this machine to review, and with that, let’s get started.
