Check out the newer, more improved Prusa Bear MK3S+ 

 

The Original Prusa i3 MK3S+ is the latest version of Prusa's award-winning 3D printers. With a brand new SuperPINDA probe for improved first layer calibration, added high-quality Misumi bearings, and various useful design tweaks to make the printer easier to assemble and maintain. The MK3S+ includes all the proven features of the previous models, including the heatbed with removable PEI spring steel print sheets, automatic Mesh Bed Leveling, filament sensor, power loss recovery (power panic) and safety features. And it is still as silent as ever!

 

Main Features

SuperPinda Probe

SuperPINDA probe features a hiqh-quality sensor for a fully-automatic Mesh Bed Leveling process. Before every print, the MK3S+ probes the bed in several places and creates a virtual heightmap of the print area. This process ensures that the first layer will always be spot on!

Misumi Bearings & more

The MK3S+ features a new set of metal clips for the genuine MISUMI bearings on the Y-axis. The belt tensioning mechanism on the X-axis was reworked and the X-end plastic parts reinforced. The filament path in the extruder was altered for better support of flexible filaments.

Removable Print Sheets

Spring steel sheets are easy to maintain and make removing the printed object from the print surface a breeze. We offer three types of print surface: smooth, textured and satin to cover all your needs when printing from a wide range of different materials - most of which do not require any special separation layers or surface preparation.

High-Quality Parts

The MK3S+ features an aluminum extrusion Y-axis assembly. Thanks to the milled dural frame, the MK3S+ is stable, rigid, and easy to assemble. Combined with our internally developed extruder featuring Bondtech gears and the E3D V6 hotend, the MK3S+ can print high-quality objects up to 210 mm in height.

Power Loss Recovery

Are you afraid of a blackout ruining your 48-hour print? Worry no more - the MK3S+ can deal with that! The printer can fully recover from the loss of power and continue printing exactly where it left off. It detects power interruptions and shuts down the heatbed and extruder heating, and saves the last known location.

Filament Sensor

The MK3S+ further enhances the reworked extruder from the MK3S. The built-in filament sensor uses a reliable trigger system, which detects whether a strand of filament is inserted into the extruder. It can detect any type and color of filament and is not susceptible to mechanical wear.

Mesh Bed Leveling

Thanks to the SuperPINDA probe, the MK3S+ can use the Mesh Bed Leveling process to compensate for microscopic imperfections of the print sheet, and inconsistencies caused by the assembly and stacking of the manufacturing tolerances of various parts. Achieving a great-looking first layer is quick and easy.

Slice with PrusaSlicer

Our internally developed multiplatform slicer comes with in-house made and fully tested profiles for all of our 3D printers and a wide range of filaments. With built-in tools, such as advanced support generation, cutting, automated object distribution, ironing and many others, you will turn your 3D models into print files in no time!

Support for a wide range of Materials

The MK3S+ is fully compatible with a wide range of various types of materials. No matter whether you want to print something for fun from PLA and flexible materials, or you need to produce durable prototypes from PETG, ASA, Polycarbonate and Polypropylene - the MK3S+ can handle them with ease.

Engineering workhorse

By: on 9 August 2022
We use this for engineering and R&D and it has performed flawlessly straight out of the box, even with nylon composites. The support at 3DPrinterGear is worth even more than I paid for the printer.

A worthy upgrade

By: on 21 June 2022
I have multiple Ender 3's in my arsenal printing car upgrades for vintage vehicles. The Ender's were ok but I found they consistently needed attention hence an upgrade to the Prusa. After 3 months, The Prusa i3 MK3S+ prints just as well as it did on day 1.

Lives up to the hype

This is my 4th Prusa and I would not use anything else. There's a reason why they have so many awards and a ton of amazing review.

Better Than What I Expected!!

By: on 17 June 2022
Im new to 3D printing but have always wanted to delve into this new technology for my fashion design brand. After hours and hours of research I was torn between the popular Ender 3 Pro or the Prusa (from all the amazing reviews I had seen plastered across the web). After calling and voicing my concerns, Jeremy talked me through the differences and my reason for wanting a 3D printer to begin with. I stuck to my gut and went with the Prusa i3 MK3S+ mainly because I didn't want to waste any time on maintenance or upgrades or levelling the build plate. This printer just worked directly out of the box. I've been using it for a month now and honestly, it has been an absolute joy! I can focus on my design patterns and I know the printer will just perform every time I load in my designs. It was a great decision and hence I felt compelled to leave a review to voice this to everyone else! If you're thinking about it, just do it! If you have any questions just call them and they will explain everything!
