The QIDI i-Fast is an industrial-grade dual extrusion FDM 3D printer that offers a build volume of 330 x 250 x 320 mm when operating in its double extruder mode and a slightly bigger one (360 x 250 x 320 mm) when printing in a single extruder mode. The dual extrusion system lets you print soluble supports and multicolor models. It also lets you print two identical models in one go. The QIDI Tech i-Fast is a sturdily built machine that boasts its all-metal frame that grants high-precision printing and prevents unwanted vibrations. The original motion structure has been upgraded to linear guides for higher print accuracy, faster printing and smoother extruding. It is a powerful 3D printer compatible with a plethora of printable materials.

Being a fully enclosed FDM 3D printer equipped with high-end direct drive extruders and a detachable magnetic heat bed, the QIDI Tech i-Fast can churn out print after print in a fast and hassle-free fashion. Its extruder is equipped with a wear-resistant ruby nozzle that minimizes clogging issues and performs particularly well when working with high-temperature materials. The printer also offers a powerful thermal insulation system that helps prevent unwanted temperature fluctuations. The QIDI Tech i-Fast offers Wi-Fi connectivity, a 5-inch color touchscreen with neatly-looking UI, a resume printing function, and a filament runout sensor for more smart features. The printer's enclosed chamber that can be heated up to 60 °C allows the machine to consistently deliver high-quality prints with excellent mechanical structure and make printing with PC and ABS more stable.

The printer can be successfully used to produce dimensionally accurate hard-to-break parts, functional prototypes, uniquely designed household items, accessories, props, and more.

The QIDI Tech i-Fast comes in a fully assembled state. It can be recommended to experienced makers and entrepreneurs running their own 3D printing business.

Print quality

The QIDI Tech i-Fast is an FDM 3D printer that can print layers at 50 microns. This way you can produce parts with smooth exterior surfaces. The direct drive extruder technology delivers high stability and remarkable precision during the printing process. In addition, dual Z-axis structure with linear industrial guide rails ensures more stable and quality outputs when you print large model size. Plus, the printing speed is doubled compared with the DIY structure 3D printers.

The i-Fast comes stock with two 0.4 mm nozzles, giving you the best balance between printing speed and detail. The nozzles in its all-metal high-temp extruder can be heated up to 300 °C. Compared with normal brass nozzles on the market, it is more durable and prints smoother with faster filament extruding. The print head runs on rods with linear bearings, making the design more simple and effective.

The printer's automatic dual extruder system will automatically adjust the left and right extruder up and down according to the software. With the PVA (water-soluble) support material, it is very suitable for printing manufacturing-level parts with complex structures and realizing precision manufacturing.

 

Materials

The QIDI Tech i-Fast can print PLA, Nylon, TPU, PETG, ABS, PC, Wood, CF and metal filaments with a diameter of 1.75 mm. Due to its two extruders, the machine can print more complex models with excellent physical properties using support filaments. 

Its extruder system comes with two nozzle cooling fans for printing with PLA-type materials. Cooling the model down reduces warping, stringing, and, generally, makes for higher print quality. The fan settings can be easily managed from the main control panel even while printing.

Unlike many FDM 3D printers, the QIDI Tech i-Fast is equipped with a detachable magnetic heat bed that provides effortless print removal and good first layer adhesion. Paired with an enclosed heated chamber, the machine can reliably print with high-temperature and ABS-like materials.

 

Build volume

The i-Fast offers an impressive print size of 360 x 320 x 250 mm that lets you print a single large model or simultaneously create several smaller ones in one go.

 

Printer controls and software

The printer is controlled via a 5-inch color touchscreen that provides for effortless standalone operation. It features crystal clear logic behind menu options and is intuitive to use. You can also control the printer by using such connection options as Wi-Fi or USB-connected device.

3D models can be printed via Wi-Fi, USB cable, or directly via an SD card or USB drive.

QIDI printers are recommended to be used with QIDI Print slicer, a self-developed software solution with an intuitive and friendly UI interface. It is based on the popular Cura Slicer and provides most of the features of its counterpart. Besides, the QIDI Tech i-Fast can be controlled with Simplify3D or Cura. The software runs on Windows 64-bit and Mac OS operating systems.

 

QIDI software offers two modes of operation: Normal and Expert. The normal mode is great for novices, with the parameter system intelligently set, no actions required. Expert mode is suitable for experienced users, who can deeply participate in modifying parameters and personalized printing models.
