Voxelab Aries 3D Pinter, Dual Z-axis Rails & Fully Assembled Semi-auto Leveling FDM Printer with Filament Sensor, Carborundum Glass Platform, Printing Size 200 x200 x 200 mm

Having cut my teeth on several anet a-8s, it was fun to literally open a box and start printing. The automated feed system saves ruining nozzles. I can’t count how many nozzles I went through with my anet no matter how well I cleaned them between prints. This printer heats to the appropriate temperature and removes and feeds so easily. I like it so much I bought two. A definite value for the price with amazing print quality and ease of use for novice or veteran printers. You want this printer!!!

quality and Shipping speed

The media could not be loaded.  I bought 1 about 2 weeks into it the printer wouldn't connect to my computer so I had 2 restart the printer 1, 2 sometimes 3x to be able to connect. I requested a replacement and they sent it, this printer worked 4 a total of 4 DAYS then the lift bed broke and it was unusable. Still waiting to get my money back!!! I sent it in. When the printer works it does amazing however it is very unreliable.

3D printing in general has a learning curve but this worked pretty well and straightforward as our first 3D printer. My only complaint so far is that occasionally it stops printing for no discernible reason (not a clog, perhaps heat creep?) --the fan turns off and the extruder stops heating. But it almost seems more like a software issue because it really bugs out after that. The temperatures and other stats on the screen go to crazy numbers and such. But this isn't really that huge of an issue anymore now that I have figured out how to continue a print that was stopped, by editing the gcode. This doesn't happen that often so it's not too bad. I have made a lot of really cool things so far with this, and definitely do recommend it.

UPDATE: They finally updated the slicing software. It works better on Windows 11, and I can finally snap a 3D model to the bed from any surface point of the model. I can also auto-center the model through the slicer. It's no Cura but this is much less frustrating. Unfortunately, it still disconnects from my computer randomly, forcing me to have to restart the printer to reconnect. Thankfully, when you first connect and start a print, the software uploads the print to the printer, so even if it loses connection, the print job will still finish.Initial review:When you can get this printer to print, it works wonders, but the software on the PC side can be frustrating.The Voxemaker slicing software has some good features, but it sometimes doesn't launch, especially on Windows 11, and it is missing some vital features, like leveling the 3D model to the print bed while adjusting it. It does an initial "snap to bed," but leaves you having to manually align a print to the bed afterwards. This can be frustrating as it will either prevent you from printing if the model is not on the bed, or it may inadvertently unlevel the print, causing the print to fail. Wish I could connect it to a better slicer like Cura, without having to deal with SD cards and such.Also, the wifi connection seems to crap out after virtually every print, requiring a reboot of the printer to resolve. There is no wired option to connect.When it does work, I've been able to print using PLA and TPU (with some hardware and software adjustments) just fine.

I bought this at the same time as a creatlity 5. This thing just works. I do recommend buying the liquid sticky stuff for the plate. The only problems have been the parts sticking to the plate and once their was a servo issue that I think came from an upgrade they pushed. Service response was great by email (obviously someone in China) they said "try it now" and it was fixed. The software is better than creality but there is a secret that you have to double click on the rotate icons on the left. The software is better behaved than others when you want to print multiple parts. The rafting feature you need to reduce the numbers or it is too thick. My Creality is a problem child and so is my daughters. Creality is ok if you want to spend time nursing it this just works.

This is my first 3d printer. My experience is only with this machine. So I have nothing to compare it too. But I'll give my honest review.It's nice that it comes prebuilt. All you have to do is make sure its on 110v for US electrical. The switch is on the back, pick it up and look, its a tiny hole.It only took a week for 2 fans to make a loud whinning noise. One to the right on the nozzle and one under the bottom plate. The hole point for me picking this one was to not have to open up and troubleshoot. But i did end up having to. So honestly go with a cheaper one you have to assemble yourself. Save the few bucks and spend that on a new nozzle and filament. The bronze one that came installed on mine didnt do so good and over cooked and stopped working pretty quick.I tried PETG, melted all over the nozzle, body, everywhere!I stuck with PLA and it works better. Some people use tape, others use glue. I use both and it prints really good quality prints. That's probably the hardest part. Thay first layer. Make sure it sticks! Also, in the parts department on Amazon. Nothing is Voxelab. It's all basically creality. So there is that. I'm learning if it all works the same. We'll see.So over all its a decent machine. Wish they put just a little bit better parts on for it to be solid. The touch screen is great! Leveling isn't too bad. It is a little loud. But again it's those fans.

I wanted a 3D printer for years and the first one was one that had to be self-assembled and missing pieces it was a nightmare. This one was perfect, already put together, and super simple to learn. I have printed a plethora of things in the months that I have had it and *knock on wood* no complaints yet, all prints have come out beautiful and it seems like recently I am doing decently sized prints multiple times in a week. It handles well. Looks sleek. Just great for its price.

Muy práctica y una gran excelente calidad de impresión

Ok, so I have had 3D printers from the days when the they were just a self built geek toy. My current stable consists of mostly DIY kit units, with two exceptions. A MonoPrice mini and now this VoxeLab Aries. I really like the MonoPrice but you need to be comfortable with tearing the thing apart every few months to address design flaws, otherwise it is an excellent machine with the 120 mm cube build area the main drawback.This machine has a build area of 200 mm cube. May not sound like much of an upgrade but trust me it is. There will be few things I want that I will be unable to print.The machine itself is very well built. When I received it I took the time to make sure the single common 'complaint item', that being the long throat to the extruder hot end being properly installed [It was]. So after leveling the build plate, super simple but I have never had issues with manual bed leveling, it just takes patience, I printed the test model [the gear].So how did it turn out? Exceptional! This printer is a joy to use and if you are a beginner or a bit longer in tooth, you can not go wrong purchasing this printer. The price, the quality and the functionality are all top gear.I am certain that the RepRap project members at the University of Bath in 2005 could never have envisioned a device as advanced as this printer is.If you want to see why 3D printing is revolutionizing art and industry get one of these things, pop over to TinkerCad and be astounded.

Good value for the money

Der Aries ist ein genialer Anfänger-Drucker um mal mit 3D-Print anzufangen.PLA ist er hervorragend. PETG auch.Das Glass-Druckbett hat das Alte Problem, das es nach einiger Zeit schlechte Haftung bietet. Daher sollte man überlegen, eine PEI-Auflage zu installieren.Der Drucker ist sehr Laut im Betrieb. Man kann ihn leiser machen durch Austausch des Netzteillüfters und der Druckkopf-Lüfter, sowie der Dämpfung des Extruder-Feeders. Die Rückwand aus Plastik auf der er verbaut ist wirkt sehr als Resonanz-Körper.Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit ihm als meinen Zweit-Drucker. Solide Arbeit, Voxelab. Gutes Konzept!

L'imprimante est belle visuellement, ça reste un carter plastique, l'écran en couleur et déjà assemblé dans la boîte.L'imprimante sonne pendant 10 secondes à chaque allumage ça devient vite embêtant surtout que le beeper est soudé sur la carte donc on ne peut pas le débrancher, il n'y a que 2 langues (anglais et chinois) donc pour une imprimante de débutant qui ne parle pas bien ni l'un ni l'autre ça va être un peu compliquer.ATTENTION les complications : Pas de profil CURA proposé le logiciel fournit est a même pas 10% de ce que CURA peut faire. Le bruit est horrible ! Un hélicoptère au décollage, est vu que le système est en 24v impossible de mettre du noctua pour que ce soit calme. L'imprimante est lente, très lente, j'ai pris la même pièce sur mon imprimante anycubic Mega elle a imprimer en 8h une pièce alors que celle ci annonçait 24h logiciel alors que a 50 % de l'impression c'était déjà écouler 14h30 et estimer encore 16h45 (l'impression c'est décollée) donc vraiment pas possible pour moi c'est retour direct.
