▼ This is the review of the Artillery Genius printer after I have been using it for a few months. In recent months I have mainly used the printer for printing production parts. These are parts of which I usually have between 4 and 15 on a print bed at the same time and which must be of such good quality that the client wants to purchase them.
The Artillery printer has always worked well in these months. I have encountered no problems such as nozzle clogs, no failed prints, or other problems. What disappointed me was the possibility to place a large spool of filament on the printer. It is not possible to place 4 kilograms of spools on the printer. The 2.5-kilogram spools also just didn't fit, and even worse ... The very small 0.5 kg filament spools also don't fit on the printer, so the adjustable spool holder on the printer can only be used for 0.8 to 1.5 kg rolls.
Just like the Artillery Sidewinder X1, the Artillery Genius is also equipped with a direct drive extruder, so that all types of filaments, from hard to very flexible, can be placed in a simple way. The printer also has a Volcano compatible nozzle and heat chamber, making it possible to print with larger nozzles, such as my beloved 0.6 mm nozzles. A larger nozzle ensures that you can print much faster, whereby the thickness of the filament flow is thicker, but the height of the layers can also increase. So you can really print a lot faster.
In a while, my FFF profile for Simplify3D will be ready. I will, of course, publish this profile on my website, https://www.3d-printcreator.com. There you will also find an easy-to-use search function per printer for all my YouTube videos.

▼ The Artillery Genius 3D printer that I unbox today is the little brother of the Artillery Sidewinder X1 printer, the 3D printer that I think is currently the best 3D printer of fewer than 1000 Euros.
I received this Genius from GearBest to make a review about it. Although I do not have to return the printer, no money has been paid for this review. All I say is my personal opinion and is based on my own findings.
In this video, you can see the unboxing and the first test print that I made with the printer. This is too little experience to make a complete review of this printer, it will be made at a later time. Keep an eye on my YouTube channel if you want to see more about this printer. In addition, I also have a lot of videos about the Artillery Sidewinder X1 on my channel, an almost comparable 3D printer.

In this video I show you 10 ways how to get high speed printing done with old bedslingers that you might still have, or that you have because you don't ...want to buy a Bambu Labs or any other Klipper machine.
I have tried this not only with my Longer LK5 Pro, but also with both my Artillery printers, my Kingroon KP3S Pro S1, my Creality Ender3 V2 and even my extremely old Creality Ender 2.

The 3D printers of the company Artillery 3D are so-called Direct Drive printers, which means that the extruder is directly above the hot end, and that no bowden tube is used between the extruder and the hot end.
A lot of users of the Artillery Sidewinder X1 and the newer Artillery Genius, complain that when they load new filament, they break off their lever for the extruder the moment they put a little force on it to take the pressure off the filament.
That this happens, of course, has something to do with the quality of the lever, but not everything. It is also really about wrong use because for removing and loading filament it is not necessary to operate this lever at all.
▼ Artillery Sidewinder X1 review | Is the Artillery Sidewinder better than a Prusa MK3?
The Artillery (or EVNOVO) Sidewinder X1 printer is a large format, super fast and extremely quiet 3D printer. The 3D printer is whisper quiet due to its modern stepper drivers ...and can print with all materials, thanks to the direct drive extruder.
After looking at various reviews of Joel Telling and Design Prototype Test, among others, I decided to buy this printer and start using it myself. This printer is therefore NOT sponsored and this video is not a paid review.
My findings are that this 3D printer is quiet and fast, and that the quality is far beyond expectations. The problems as found by other reviewers on the Internet, I could not find them myself, but this may be because I have received a version 4 printer, while most reviewers have received a pre-production model. At the time of writing, the printer as I tested it is the printer that you and I can purchase through AliExpress (the official Artillery3D store).
Also, keep an eye on this channel as I will make a lot more video's about the Artillery Sidewinder X1 printer soon.
Thanks for watching

Full disclaimer: This Artillery Sidewinder X1 was not given to me, I bought this printer with my own money, received from coffee donations on my website. I thank my supporters for helping me buy printers and parts to review.
In this video, I discuss the quality of my Artillery Sidewinder X1 after a month of intensive use. If you want to see earlier videos I made about this specific printer, please visit my website via this link.
The first prints I made with this printer were made with PLA. This material prints great and stays very well attached to the print bed. The adhesion is very strong, which sometimes caused exciting moments to release the print from the bed, but so far it has always gone well. You won’t have to be afraid that PLA starts warping as long as you use the heated bed to start the print.
I have noticed that the diamond glass bed is different from, for example, the printer beds that I know of the JGAurora A5 and the Anycubic I3 Mega. With the other printers, prints are easily released after the bed has cooled down, while with the Artillery Sidewinder X1, the prints remain firmly attached to the bed even after cooling.
You can see this as a disadvantage, because the print does not come off immediately, but it is also an advantage. For example, if the printer shuts off due to a power failure, you can easily resume the print after the failure, without the print coming off the bed. This is not possible with the aforementioned printers. Once the print has been released from the bed with these printers, you cannot resume printing.
Prints I made with NGEN, a very nice co-polymer from Colorfabb, came out perfect from this printer. The used temperature of 240 degrees on the nozzle and 80 degrees on the bed are reached quickly due to the mains powered heated bed and remain stable. The NGEN adheres perfectly to the bed and prints effortlessly. For me, NGEN is a perfect alternative to ABS because it prints with the ease of PLA, is very strong and can withstand UV light. Moreover, you can let it become much warmer than PLA so that you can also use NGEN for prints of parts that you use in a car behind a hot window.
When I started testing with PET and PETG I came up with an unexpected result. Normally, PET and PETG adhere far too well to a print bed, and you need to use glue or another dissolvable adhesive to ensure that you can dissolve the bond between the print material and the bed. In this case, the PET and PETG did not adhere to the bed at all. I have not succeeded in making a successful print with PET or PETG. This was not due to the ability of the printer to melt the material, but rather to the adhesion with the bed.
In the time that I have been using the printer now, I can only say that I am very satisfied with the result. The prints look good and are made very quickly because this printer is extremely fast. Wherewith other printers I use a speed of 40 to 60 millimeters per second, with this printer I crank it up to 100mm per second for parts that have to look nice. The printer can handle it easily and delivers perfect results.
What I find even more important, when we talk about speed, is the speed of the Z hop. This printer can move along the Z-axis so quickly that you can easily specify in the slicer that you want a Z hop with every move, without making the print much slower. This makes prints made much faster, and much nicer, than is the case with many other printers.
As for the leveling of the bed. I have only done this once since I got my printer. After putting the printer down, I set up the bed well and after that, I just didn't do anything about it, and now, more than a month later, I still print on the same bed without any adjustments. So far I only have one other printer with which this has succeeded, that is the Creality Ender 2, with its much smaller print bed.
In terms of maintenance, I have not come across any crazy things with this printer. The printer functions as it should and seems very reliable to me.
Recently, this printer also got a smaller brother, the Genius, and this printer is now also en route to my studio for testing. As soon as the Genius is here I will review it, but also compare it with the Sidewinder X1

After the first two videos about the Artillery Sidewinder, in which I review the printer and in which I create a profile for Simplify3D in combination with the Sidewinder X1, ...this time I used the printer to print a 28mm miniature and compare its quality with a RESIN print from my Elegoo MARS 3D printer.
Are you curious about which printer prints a better miniature? then watch this video.
