Creality Ender 3 V3 SE: a 3D printer to start with
The Ender 3 V3 SE is Creality's entry-level printer: a bed-slinger FDM machine with a 220 × 220 × 250 mm build volume, automatic levelling and a dual-gear Sprite direct extruder. It's a straightforward way into 3D printing, or a replacement for an old printer without the hassle of manual levelling, and the direct extruder handles flexible filaments with less fuss than a Bowden setup. It arrives as a kit you assemble yourself.
- Build volume of 220 × 220 × 250 mm, for 1.75 mm filament.
- Automatic levelling and a Sprite direct extruder; quiet 32-bit mainboard.
- Up to 260 °C at the nozzle and 100 °C on the bed: PLA, PETG and TPU are no problem; ABS or ASA are better with the printer sheltered from draughts.
- 180 mm/s print speed (up to 250 mm/s) and 2500 mm/s² acceleration, according to the spec sheet.
- 3.2-inch colour screen with a rotary knob, printing from an SD card.

How to choose the right one
If it's your first printer and a 220 × 220 mm bed is enough, it's an easy choice; if you want much faster printing or technical materials on a regular basis, look at an enclosed printer. Make sure you have room: it measures 349 × 364 × 490 mm and the bed travels backwards and forwards.
How we choose products
usi3d shows products from other shops for their compatibility with your printer, because they help with a fault, because they ship to Spain and because the shop is trustworthy. The commission does not decide what we show or in what order.
