    The Differences between Ender5 with Ender 5 Plus with Ender 5 Pro
    03.18.2021 | Cherry Chen | News
    People might be curious about why Ender 5 comes out after Ender 3. Why there is Ender 5?  Right Now, there are lots of options on the FDM 3D printer market, Ender 3 can be described as a great success of Creality. Ender 3 series has become a star with its acceptable price and high printing precision since 2016. In 2018, Ender 3 was upgraded to be Ender 3 pro for more possible functions. and most people are suggesting making a box-like 3d printer, there’s why Ender 5 comes out. And it really impresses people with its unique compact frame. 
     
    After the birth of Ender 5Ender 5 Plus and Ender 5 Pro are also launched one after another. For these three products, you may be not sure how to choose. Here, we will introduce the differences between these three products in detail, so that you can fully understand the Ender 5 series products and make the best choice.
     
    Just as Creality brought Pro version of the Ender 3 to the desktop 3D printer market shortly after recognizing its initial success, the manufacturer has decided to revisit this strategy once again with the Creality Ender 5 Pro and Ender 5 plus for more updating funs. Next, there are some differences between the Ender 5 series products.

     
    The Difference between Ender 5 and Ender 5 Pro.



    The box-like printer has outer dimensions of 440 x 410 x 465 mm and builds volume of 220 x 220 x 300 mm – so better make some room on your workbench. While the X and Y-axis measurements are the same as the Ender 3, the new version provides more room for the Z-axis. Each of the axes has a dedicated stepper motor. In a quite unusual way, the Y-axis motor drives both sides of the gantry at the same time so you get an overall smoother movement. The Z-axis is mounted in the middle of the bed with a big 8-mm-rod.
     
    Overall, with a Meanwell 350W / 24 V power supply (also to be found in the Ender 3 Pro) lets you heat the bed up to 100 degrees faster. The cable management is good – no loose ends here, so to speak. The printer runs a modified Marlin firmware. And right now Ender 5 also can be added with BL touch for better auto-leveling. Ender 5 price is about $300 to $350. This price will be more acceptable for most people.

    Ender 5 Pro is an upgraded version of Ender 5. The machine parameters are almost the same. The only difference is that some major firmware has been updated. For example, the mainboard, extender frame, and filament tube.

    1. Ender 5 Pro is the new V1.15 silent mainboard with TMC2208 drivers. It’s much quieter and accurate when printing. This mainboard with Marlin 1.1.8 and Bootloader also has thermal runway protection enabled and provides extra protection in case the printer reaches unpredictably high temperatures. However, Ender 5 is the industrial circuit board and build-in motherboard.
    2. Ender 5 Pro is a highly durable metal extruder frame. This feature can provide much stronger pressure, while the filament is pushed through the 3D printer’s nozzle. It also can improve the printing performance of the printer. This upgraded metal extruder kit is equipped with an adjustable bolt so that you can adjust the pressure of the extruder gear to select the most suitable filaments. But Ender 5 is just the normal extruder frame.
    3. Ender 5 Pro also includes new and improved filament tubing. The Capricorn Bowden PTFE Tubing has a 1.9mm ± 0.05mm inner diameter, reducing any excess wiggle room and preventing the filament from buckling inside of the tube. The addition of this high-end tubing makes the printer better suited to print with flexible filaments and other exotic materials. However, Ender 5 is only a normal filament tube. Ultimately, if you want enhanced safety, more silent printing performance, as well as additional flexibility when it comes to filament selection, it’s worth shelling out the extra cash for the enhanced Ender 5 Pro. If you want to print with flexible filament, the Ender 5 Pro is also likely the right choice for you.

    The Difference between Ender 5 Pro and Ender 5 Plus



    Ender 5 Pro has a cube frame and a volume of 220*220*300mm to meet various printing requirements and diverse creations. Ender 5 Pro rolled DIY machine model and whole machine working into one with enhanced stability. A single machine, two different experiences. Independent development ultra-mute motherboard gives fewer noises and higher precision. The metal extruder kit is stable in feeding in filaments and wear-resisting so that the print quality is better. Ender 5 Pro also has a double Y-axis control system with the synchronous operation and stable output to avoid vibrations resulting from long-time printing.

    Ender 5 Plus is the upgraded version of Ender 5 Pro. Ender 5 Plus has made many promotions based on Ender 5 and Ender 5 Pro. There are some differences between Ender 5 Pro and Ender 5 Plus.

     
    1.Size: Ender 5 Plus(350*350*400mm) has a much larger size than Ender 5 Pro(220*220*250mm). The box design with overhead gantry and ultra-large printing format will meet more of your printing requirements. It can achieve better print results and a large print model at a time.
    2.BL touch: Ender 5 Plus with BL touch can auto bed level pre-installed. You just plug them in and start printing. It can precisely measure the tilt of the bed surface, offer the automatic compensation for the Z-axis for unevenness of the platform plate, easily solve the printing failure caused by the unevenness of the platform and provide reliable operation with all build surfaces. However, the Ender 5 Pro is not.
    3.Touch screen: Ender 5 Plus has a 4.3inch touch screen. It’s easy to operate. But the Ender 5 Pro does not have the touch screen.
    4.Updated Y-axis motor: Ender 5 Plus upgraded Y-axis motor. dual Y-axis is synchro and equipped with a 42-48 motor. Strong power support and smoother transmission, flexible and reliable.
    5.Dual Z-axis: Ender 5 Plus has the dual Z-axis. It's lead screw drives smoothly and steady. The movement of the build plate will be more stable.
    Filament end sensor: the function is to let you know whenever your filament breaks, runs out or gets tangled on the spool when you're not around the printer. The Ender 5 Plus has this feature, and the Ender 5 Pro does not have.

    The Difference between Ender 5 Plus and Ender 5

    Creality official DIY 3d printer Ender 5 plus made by 3d printing manufacturer, 350*350*400mm, Ender's cube frame, 4.3inch touch screen, ultra-large printing format to meet more of printing requirement, stable Z-axis, auto bed leveling pre-installed, maximum protection, easy to assemble, printing resume, filament end sensor and strong power supply.

    Ender 5 Plus has made many upgrades and improved some functions on the basis of Ender 5. there are some differences between the two printers.

     
    1.Platform:Ender 5 has the C-Magnetic sticker, and Ender 5 has the tempered glass plates.
    2.Size: Ender 5 Plus (350*350*400mm) has a super size than Ender 5(220*220*300mm).
    3.BL touch: Ender 5 Plus with BL touch can auto bed level pre-installed. You just plug them in and start printing. Although Ender 5 does not have a BL touch, it can buy a BL touch and install it by yourself. Ender 5 also has a large hand-turning nut, and it is ergonomically designed, and the leveling speed is fast, helps you get rid of the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive.
    4.Upgrade Y-axis: for Ender 5, the dual Y-axis motion control system drives the high-quality stable output of the two-sided timing belt, effectively avoiding the shock caused by printing. However, Ender 5 Plus has some promotions for the dual Y-axis. Ender 5 plus’ s dual Y-axis is synchro and equipped with a 42-48 motor. Strong power support and smoother transmission, more flexible and reliable.
    5.Dual Z-axis: Ender 5 Plus has the dual Z-axis. It's lead screw drives smoothly and steady. The movement of the build plate will be more stable than Ender 5.
    6.Touch screen: Ender 5 Plus has the touch screen, it is convenient to operate. But Ender 5 is LCD.
