Wanhao Duplicator i3

3D Printer Overview The Wanhao Duplicator i3 3D printer is an entry-level printer built with Prusa technology. Prusa is an architecture and
frame type of 3D printers developed by Czech engineer Josef Prusa, today, 3D printers created using RepRap Prusa technology are the best-selling on the market due to low cost, reliable, and at the same time, simple design that provides high print quality, with minimal professional knowledge and experience.

In the box with the printer

The Wanhao Duplicator i3 3D printer comes with everything you need to start printing right after unpacking the printer from the box. The Wanhao Duplicator i3 of the first version were fully assembled, but in the Duplicator i3 v2.0 (version 2.0) version, the frame consists of two parts, but is easily assembled using eight screws and special hex keys that come with the printer. This made it possible to reduce the size of the box and make the packaging more reliable during transportation.

The Wanhao Duplicator i3 3D printer comes with: a microSD card with loaded 3D models for test printing, several sheets of special platform coating, a scraper for easy removal of the finished model from the platform. Power and USB cables and a small amount of PLA plastic with a diameter of 1.75 mm.

To prevent damage during shipping, all stepper motors are disconnected from the power supply, so you need to connect the power and control wires to the appropriate connectors according to the assembly instructions. The spool holder consists of two parts and does not take much time to assemble. No special tools are required for its assembly.


Interface & Software

The Wanhao Duplicator i3 3D printer has a bright LCD display mounted on the power and control box. The 3D printer can print from an SD card, or from a computer via a USB cable. Attention!, when printing via a USB cable, the computer must be constantly turned on and in active working mode. When the computer enters sleep mode, or is turned off, printing will stop. Easy to use and easy to manage, Cura or Simplify 3D software is fully compatible with the printer and the most popular computer operating systems. Programs allow you to customize: print quality, speed, print and table temperature, control cooling, adjust the percentage of filling the model, scale the model, select the type of plastic and much more.


Capabilities

Despite the low cost, the Wanhao Duplicator i3 3D printer offers no less than its more expensive competitors. The print area is 200 x 200 x 180 mm, this size is quite enough to print the most popular models, and solves most of the user's tasks. The size of the printer itself is 400 x 410 x 400 mm, so it won't take up much space on your desk.

The 0.4mm nozzle is the most popular diameter and is ideal for printing fine details at 100 micron resolution without losing speed or clogging the plastic in the extruder. Many users confirm the high quality of printing with basic 3D printer settings. Many websites list the maximum print speed of the Duplicator i3 as 100mm per second. But in our experience, a print speed no higher than 65 mm per second is the most suitable for this model. Increasing the print speed is fraught with the fact that the extruder may become clogged.

Wanhao MK10 extruder temperature can reach 260°C, although for most types of consumables, the extrusion temperature does not exceed 210°C, so the printer can print elastic and engineering materials.

The Heated Print Bed has a standard size of 200 x 200 mm and is heated to 100°C. The platform is fixed on four spring-loaded screws, which make it easy to calibrate the platform before printing.

Open source code

Many would argue that the Wanhao Duplicator i3 3D printer is just for beginners, but the printer's open architecture allows for upgrades and improvements. The Duplicator i3 entered the market quite recently, but many users are already sharing their experience and methods of improving both the mechanics of the printer, tap and its software. The open source Melzi control board makes it easy to upgrade and upload new control firmware.

Terminal

If you're looking for an inexpensive 3D printer, but don't want to mess with DIY kits to assemble, then the Wanhao Duplicator i3 is the one for you. Pre-assembled and configured, this printer is very easy to use. The steel frame ensures that it will run smoothly and you won't have to reprint and change plastic parts over time like on competitors' RepRap printers. But don't expect too much from a printer either. Start printing simple models at low speed, hone your skills and gain experience in both printing and modeling printable models. Learn, print, earn money with Wanhao Duplicator i3 3D printer.

Pros:

Low cost,

Easy setup,

Safe,

Sturdy steel construction.

Everything you need to print included,

Bright LCD display and standalone operation,

Open design.

Cons:

Extrusion speed is relatively slow,

Minor pre-assembly required.

Duplicator i3 v 2.1 - in the development of the new model, feedback from users of the previous version of the Duplicator I3 3D printer was taken into account.

Main differences from i3 v 2.0:

  • The printer now has the ability to adjust the position of the Z-axis limit switch. Thanks to this feature, the user can choose on which platform he will print, with or without glass.
  • The platform itself is heated from 60 to 100 degrees.
  • For the convenience of users, the software now uses open source.
  • The guides were replaced with LM8UU bearings with a diameter of 45 mm.
  • Increased fan size and shroud width for additional cooling.

    • Made a new and improved bottom bracket design.

    • The table can be adjusted with a hexagon and a lamb at the same time.

    • Provided the ability to adjust the limit switch along the Z axis, as well as put glass.

    Good day.

    Not so long ago, an updated version of the popular 3D printer in Russia - Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus, went on sale, in addition, sales of the latest Duplicator i3 V 2.1 modification began. We decided to figure out how the new products differ from previous versions.

    Features.

    As can be seen from the characteristics they are absolutely similar. Only the price differs.

    Appearance.


    If Wanhao i3 2.0 and Wanhao i3 2.1 are visually almost indistinguishable from each other, then in Wanhao i3 Plus the absence of a control unit is immediately evident. In the i3 Plus version, he moved under the heating table. This makes the printer more compact and the frame is more stable.

    Wanhao i3 Plus also got a convenient touch screen. (No, unfortunately not MKS-TFT32).

    Mechanics.

    I did not find any radical differences in the mechanics of the printer. The design of the carriage changes slightly. In v 2.1 the bearings on the X axis have been replaced.

    Airflow has changed compared to Wanhao i3 2.0. The fan has become larger, and the nozzle airflow shroud is wider.

    Although the blowing direction remained the same incomprehensible - above and to the right of the printed part. In general, few printers can boast of a competent airflow arrangement.

    Electronics.

    Wanhao i3 Plus has got an elegant cable that goes to the extruder instead of a bunch of wires.

    This is a slightly ambiguous improvement. Someone claims that the cable is less reliable than wires, someone vice versa.

    When I got to the insides of the printers, I saw that in principle there were no special changes in the "stuffing". Visually the same board. Only the model of the power supply changes slightly.


    Table calibration.


    In all Wanhao i3, the table is calibrated using 4 points.

    From the looks of it, everyone has handy knobs for leveling the table. But in Wanhao i3 2.0, the table has to be adjusted using a hexagon while holding the lamb with the other hand. It is very uncomfortable.
    Wanhao i3 2.1 and Wanhao i3 Plus no longer have this problem.

    Since Wanhao i3 2.1 version, it is possible to adjust the height of the limit switch along the Z axis. This will be useful for those who are used to printing on glass.

    By the way, Wanhao i3 2.1 comes with glass. Wanhao i3 2.0 and Wanhao i3 Plus do not have glass.

    Printer management.

    Wanhao i3 Plus turned out to have very convenient controls. If earlier you had to wander through the printer menu for a long time to find the desired item, now almost anything can be done in a few clicks.

    Added option to load/unload filament. A trifle, but nice.

    Wanhao i3 Plus has become much friendlier to the novice user compared to previous versions. This makes me happy.

    ABS tests.

    Wanhao i3 2. 0 and Wanhao i3 2.1 have an undeniable advantage when printing ABS - it is the ability to close the printer with a camera.
    In this case, the control unit with all electronics will remain outside and will not heat up additionally. I would be afraid to cover Wanhao i3 Plus with a “cap”.

    PLA tests.

    While printing, Wanhao i3 2.0 shows very large temperature jumps +/- 10-15 degrees on the display. Wanhao i3 2.1 and Wanhao i3 Plus no longer had this problem.

    Tests with soft plastic. (NinjaTek Cheetan)

    In the end, we decided to try printing with soft plastic. In principle, everything is excellent. Only the Wanhao i3 2.0 got a little undercooled when printing. Because of this, the outer contour is badly sintered.

    Total.

    It's nice to see that 3D printers are becoming more friendly and understandable to the novice user. Despite the fact that some decisions of the Wanhao i3 Plus are quite controversial, I think it will definitely find its niche among inexpensive 3D printers.
