Prusa i3 MK3s+
The Prusa i3 MK3s+ is a successor to Original Prusa i3 MK3 with hardware and software upgrades which lead to improved reliability and ease of use and assembly.
The Edge purchased 5 Prusa i3s printers to replace the ageing Up mini 2s.
Summary
- Build volume – (250(W) x 210(D) x 210(H) mm (11,025 cm3)
- 0.4mm nozzle
- PEI print surface
FILAMENT MATERIALS
In theory, the Prusa i3 Mk3s+ can be set up to print using a range of filaments including:
| PLA | Polylactic acid (Starch based) |
| ABS | Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene |
| PETG | Polyethylene terephthalate (Glycol modified) |
| Nylon | Polyamide |
| Composite Materials | Often PLA with carbon fiber, metal or wood fill |
| HIPS | High-impact polystyrene |
| PVA | Polyvinyl acetate (Water-soluble Print support) |
| PP | Polypropylene |
In practice, we control the types of filaments permitted for printing, due to the emissions they produce when melted. For the full range, see: Supported Filaments
