BQ Hephestos 2 3D Printer

BQ 3D Printers

The BQ 3D printer is the latest printer to deliver flawless results with the Hephestos 2. The extruder must always work at a specific distance from the bed. The Hephestos 2 3D printer includes a new inductive sensor that measures the precise. The sensor is made of an electric coil that generates a magnetic field and when the bed moves closer to the field, the sensor detects the distance and alerts you when in the correct position via a small red LED. This 2 printer lets you print 3D pieces with materials, such as bronze, wood or copper filament. The new extruder is 100% designed by BQ and includes a double drive gear traction system. This component consists of two gearwheels that press and pull the filament along through the hot-end with optimum traction and grip. By allowing the Hephestos 2 to print with flexible materials such as filaflex, you can achieve a larger printing volume, reaching (X) 210mm x (Y) 297mm x (Z) 220mm.
