Any news on the Ender-5 max enclosure?

Now that the Ender-5 Max is available, I am very interested to find out more about its ability to print functional high-temp filaments like PA6-CF and PA12 based filaments.

To do so, it will need an enclosure and the preliminary info seems to indicate an enclosure is an option for the printer. However, when I went to check out the printer during the purchase process, I did not see any mention of ordering the enclosure.

Has anyone heard anything further about when that may be released? Thanks

Hi there, here is the link below

🔲 Optional Enclosure: Ideal for engineering filaments

Right, I understand that the printer is now for sale.

My question was “when I went to check out the printer during the purchase process, I did not see any mention of ordering the enclosure”

Are there any links to information about the enclosure features or pricing available?

If there are they are there they are very well hidden.

I believe this larger version is big enough to fit over that printer after checking the measurements…(Looks like it’s out of stock unfortunately)

Large Enclosure

Not quite as swish as the plexiglass version that the Max advert shows.

Definitely a lot nicer. Wonder why it’s not available to order…?

If it came as standard in that enclosure I would order one to replace my ender 5 plus.

Would be nice if it was included… :upside_down_face:
I saw some nice 3rd party enclosures but they want a boatload of money for them…

Like this one :arrow_right: Ender 5 Plus Enclosure

Back in the late 70’s early 80’s there was a TV programme called Blake7, that enclosure there reminds me of Orac, an annoying computer that knows everything. For that sort of money I could ZeroG, CoreXY, Linear rail my machine and possibly afford some kind of eddy current levelling.

Have a look for a scrapped DMC DeLorean,
I think they have them fitted for time jumping.

Not a Delorean something like Beacon or BigTreeTech Eddy. Anyway like the Ender 5 Max as a premise should be enclosed from the get go.

Hello @Bonfireman ,

You certainly do a lot of searching and research !

I had no idea “eddy current levelling” existed.
Now that I do, the concept makes technical sense.

Infact, I believe it should come close in cost for printer manufacturers to use that method rather than the probe idea !

Thanks for pointing it out.

I can’t see why it is not the way forward for next generation of printers.
