The Raise3D Pro2 Plus is a professional dual-extruder 3D printer of the next generation ready to print right after shipping. The machine features an enclosed chamber for enhanced heat management and remarkable build quality. It has a massive print area of 305 x 305 x 605 mm, showing double the height on the Z-axis of its award-winning predecessor from the popular Raise3D Pro2 series, the original model. That's why it currently is the All3DP's best large-format 3D printer choice. Overall, the Pro2 3D printers are recognized as a benchmark and gold standard for professional 3D printing applications and 24/7 reliability for rapid prototyping projects.

Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing for production-grade environments, the device comes ready to print, providing a frustration-free setup and excellent performance. An improved optical sensor facilitates bed leveling. It is designed to deliver high-quality, professional results at the industrial level. It features a dual extruder, metal build plate, HEPA air filter, various precaution measures to save work like a filament run-out sensor, resume print after power outage function, onboard camera, wireless compatibility, large 7-inch touchscreen display, a 32-bit motion control board, and a variety of other handy functions. The machine is engineered with interchangeable nozzles that can be replaced in seconds. Keep reading to learn more about the Pro2 Plus.

John Gardner is a student that has been developing a bunch of interesting 3D printed objects, including an electric skateboard, and custom-fit prosthetic limbs. He started using the Raise3D Pro series printers as an educational tool at the Foothill High School. Since then, he has never stopped experimenting with their printing capabilities.

The printer has been widely used in different industries. For example, Dr. Nader Salib uses its precision to create accurate dental impressions.

Print quality

The new Raise3D Pro2 Plus is an FDM 3D printer that can print incredibly thin layers at 10 microns. This way you can produce parts with smooth exterior surfaces. The rugged design, quality electrical and mechanical components with full warranty coverage, and smart features of the product deliver excellent print quality while ensuring increased stability, accuracy, and high repeatability. The multiple fail-safe systems allow completing your prints every time. The printer's electronic driven dual extrusion with retracting hot ends and 1.5 mm lifting distance between the idle printing nozzle and the printed object makes the printer more versatile and flexible.

The Raise3D Pro2 Plus has 4 print nozzles of 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 mm in diameter, giving you the best balance between speed and detail.

The print head runs on rods with linear bearings, making the design more simple, lightweight, and effective—all characteristics that are desirable in a 3D printer.

The Pro2 Plus utilizes the Atmel ARM Cortex M7.400 MHZ FPU as its motion controller. This allows the machine to deliver silky smooth movement, precise positioning, amazing accuracy, and absolute quality 3D prints at any resolution. The controller's exceptional repeatability and high reliability ensure the printer does not become misaligned during the back-and-forth movements while keeping its lightning speed of printing.

Materials

The Raise3D Pro2 Plus prints with a wide range of filament types, including PLA, ABS, HIPS, TPU, PC, PP, Nylon, TPE, FLEX, PETG, Metal PLA, Wood PLA, Carbon Fiber, and other materials. 

The extruder comes with a fan for 3D printing with PLA-type materials. By cooling the model down, it reduces warping, stringing and, generally, makes for higher quality of final products. Like its predecessor, the Pro2 Plus includes a HEPA filter to reduce the emissions and fan speed regulation for better control over the cooling process for each print job.

Unlike many FDM printers, the Raise3D Pro2 Plus has a heated aluminum build plate providing even heat distribution as well as enclosed print chamber alongside a full metal frame, which means it can reliably print with ABS-type materials. Indeed, the enclosure ensures temperature stability being perfect for temperature-sensitive filaments. Still, the print bed features a magnetic removal mechanism to easily remove the prints.

The Raise3D Pro2 Plus supplies its own branded filament as well as runs the open filament program, providing recommendations on which filaments perform best with the machine.  

Build volume

The build area of 12 x 12 x 11.8 inches (305 x 305 x 605 mm) lets you print just about anything. From big parts to tiny miniatures, just like these little components of a small pump.

Printer controls and software

The Raise3D Pro2 Plus 3D printer is controlled via PC or a fitted, 7-inch touch screen with a clear interface and decent resolution (1024 x 600). Extremely easy-to-use, the display offers great usability and user-friendliness throughout the whole 3D printing process. 

3D models can be printed from a computer via Wi-Fi, LAN, or USB. You can keep an eye on things via the printer’s built-in camera for efficient monitoring.

The printer is compatible with the IdeaMaker slicing software. It lets you handle almost any feature of the printer from a computer providing a smooth manufacturing experience. The IdeaMaker includes print settings management and print queue. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. With the IdeaMaker supported file types (such as STL, OBJ, and 3MF formats), one can work at any 3D model with convenience and ease.
