Build Volume  300 x 300 x 400 mm (11.8 x 11.8 x 15.7 in)
Nozzle  0.4 mm stainless steel


In addition to the two Prusa Minis which are our main 3d Printers at the lab we now have a Sidewinder X2 for larger print jobs.

  • Please bring your own filament and only use plain PLA. If you would like to print materials other then PLA please write in the #3d_printing channel on slack. Additives like wood or carbon wear out the nozzles extremely quickly.
  • The printer is open to experieced user. Please ask on #3d_printing slack channel before usage if you are not familiar with the machine.

Details

  • UBL mesh bed leveling enabled
  • Printable via USB Stick and micro SD card
  • Material: plain 1.75mm PLA normally

Quickstart guide

If you haven't used the printer but already visited one of the monthly 3D printing intro course, please for now contact @yichen zhang on slack for a 15 - 30 min quick introduction to the machine.

  • Please visually inspect the printer for visible damage before usage.
    • If damage is been found please contact @yichen zhang on slack. Thank you.

  • Please use the official Artillery Sidewinder X1 presets for the Sidewinder X2
    • Add "Artillery" in the "Other Vendors" tab
    • Add the "Artillery Sidewinder X1" on the "Artillery FFF" tab
    • Select "Artillery Sidewinder X1 BL-TOUCH" as your printer
  • Slice your 3D Object as normal
  • Get the USB stick that's on the printer and export your sliced model onto it.
  • Power up the machine via the power switch on the backside of the machine.
  • Preheat the nozzle via the load/unload menu of the machine (210°C Recommended)
  • Insert your filament through the filament runout sensor and into the extruder.
