Main features

Guider 3 is specially designed for small batch production applications. The lightweight and compact machine structure, simple and powerful management system, and fast and efficient delivery capability guarantee continuous small batch manufacturing process in various scenarios, and provide low-cost and simple production methods

Lightweight and Compact Design for Flexible Production Space

The new machine structure design improves the utilization rate of the internal space of the equipment, realizes the expansion of the build volume while making the equipment occupying less space, offering flexible layout of the production line.

 

Quick replacement within 30s; Uniform 110°C-heating over the whole format, offering better printing effects

Glass platform:

The smooth and flat surface makes it easy to remove models with a shovel or scraper, saving time and efforts.

Flexible steel plate platform:

The removable magnetic platform is easy to bend, which makes it easy to remove large models.

The entire frame adopts aluminum structure, and the enclosure adopts lightweight and durable ABS and acrylic sheets, which realizes the lightweight design from the inside out while ensuring stable printing as well.

Powerful Dual-platform System

Guider 3 offers two different platform options: glass platform and flexible steel plate platform. Thus, users can make personalized choices according to their needs when printing different filaments, which makes it suitable for diversified printing scenes.

 

Fast and Efficient Delivery Capacity

CoreXY Structure for Rapid Production

Guider 3 contributes to efficient workflow and responds to the rapid delivery demand of customized market; It adopts the smoother CoreXY motion structure, supports high-speed and low-noise printing, which saves the printing time, ensures stable printing, and brings efficient printing experience.

 

 

Simple and Worry-free

Operation Process

More Convenient Upgraded Leveling System
As the first step to start printing, leveling is crucial to the success and quality of printing. Guider 3 optimizes the auxiliary leveling and automatic leveling system to guarantee your leveling operation in all directions.
The adopted high-sensitivity and inductive proximity sensor detects and saves the initial flatness data of the horizontal platform, and intelligently compensates the platform height through Z-axis during the printing process to realize automatic leveling.

Upgraded Extruder Structure,

Quick-release Nozzle
Suitable for various filaments, the double-gear extrusion structure design increases the filament feeding force by 150% and causes less clogging issues, not inferior at all for various application requirements.
The quick-release nozzle, with multiple diameter options, is easy to replace and maintain, and can meet various use requirements.

  Self-equipped Maintenance Assistant

The equipped maintenance assistant provides solutions to common printing problems, saves communication time and realizes efficient maintenance.

Ensure an Environmentally Friendly, Low-Consumption, and Safe Working Environment

 

Air Filtration:

HEPA air filter system can effectively filter the dust, odor and particles generated during the printing process, thus ensuring an environment-friendly and safe working environment.

Sleep Mode:

If the equipment is not in use for a long time, the equipment will automatically enter the sleep mode, and then the screen goes black and lights are off, ensuring low energy consumption during night operations.

Auto Shut-Down:

After finishing printing, the equipment will automatically shut down, realizing unattended, energy-saving and safer operation.

Filament Detection:

Guider 3 is equipped with a filament detection sensor to detect the abnormal state of filaments. If the filament is used up or clogged, the equipment will automatically stop and remind you of related problems, which can effectively prevent the damage of the printed part or nozzle, save electricity and avoid material waste. When the filament is used up, printing can be resumed after the problem is solved.
