The hotend has a 4mm bore allowing the PTFE to be fed directly to the brass nozzle. The high flow rate hotend is essential for large prints up to 300x300x400mm.

Worth Every Penny

This printer is worth every penny that you pay for. I've run hundreds of hours on this printer so far and the volcano hotend has proven to be reliable and has yet to clog. Definitely run with a glass bed.

V3

Posted by Nickels Novelties on Feb 19th 2021

Set up was pretty straight forward and easy to follow if you use the files from the flash drive. The build plate cover is very tacky but it is easily removable to ensure proper placement. the V3 has a good size for a variety of builds. I was under the impression all printers come with a slicer program so I did not inquire about it before purchase so I am using a program from my first 3D printer. over all It is a good printer.

Gear 3 WOW!

Posted by Chris Russell on Dec 14th 2020

I LOVE the gear 3 machine! I thave been 3D printing for about 5 years now and owned multiple other brands of machines that just can’t touch this one. I threw the cr-10 in the trash so it could live in the landfill ! The gear 3 is super fast getting prints done faster than any machine I’ve owned, and silent and simply prints great detail. It’s extremely easy to use and tune/ set up the way I wanted it. I could not be happier with Zytech products and their customer service and support is the absolute best. If you want a machine you can trust you can’t go wrong with a gear 3!
