Creality Acrylic 3D Printer Enclosure – Ender 5 S1

The wonderous box design of Creality’s Ender 5 S1 3D Printer has many advantages over other bed-slingers, like a greater stability and the opportunity to easily install an enclosure. The Creality team thought ahead and included all the assembly points you need to install your enclosure around the Ender 5 S1. The Creality Acrylic 3D Printer Enclosure consists of 4 panels that slot into each side with included brackets and screws. Just like that, your printer will be shrouded in a stylish black translucent case and have the ability to print more advanced filaments.

Start tackling those trickier filaments like ABS, Nylons and even Polycarbonate – all of which require enclosed printing environments to print effectively without curling or warping. The Acrylic Enclosure for Ender 5 S1 maintains a stable printing temperature inside its four enclosed walls by stopping stray wind from cooling your prints at crucial moments. Enclosures are often the key to consistent, high-quality prints with a wider range of filaments.

The black translucent panels encase your printer while still offering a clear view of your print. While the top of the printer remains open in this specific Acrylic Enclosure, this is actually a strength in the design as it allows easy accessibility and environmental control of the temperature fluctuations that usually occur from drafts from the sides. You can also reach your print by simply swinging open the front panel door. The installation of the Creality Acrylic Enclosure right onto the box frame of the Ender 5 S1 printer gives it a solid and stable structure that not only keeps toasty temperatures and noises inside, but also keeps dust and other potentially detrimental factors out.

Please Note: This awesome enclosure is compatible with the Creality Ender 5 S1, but is NOT compatible with the other Creality Ender 5 models.

Although Creality 3D have been working within the industry since 2014, their addition of the Creality CR-10 series is what really catapulted them to the front line of competition, as it offered substantially better quality compared to other 3D printers – while simultaneously reducing the cost and complexities of the machines.

The quality of Creality’s 3D Printers and accessories shows through in their market history, with the brand selling around 3000 printers in their first year on the market, followed by about 10,000 sales over the next year. Now, Creality easily sells around 30,000 or more 3D printers each year, with sales continuously rising as they bring out more models. These are impressive numbers when considering the fact that they entered the industry as unknown competitors, quickly rising through the ranks and now even competing with Wanhao and similar top brands.

If you are looking for excellent 3D Printers that offer affordability without compromising on quality, Creality 3D is certainly a brand that you should take note of. From the basic Creality Ender 2 all the way up to the large build volume Creality CR-10 S5, there are few other brands who are capable of offering such a refined package while still maintaining some of the most enticing prices in the industry.
