Adventurer 3 V2 equips with a flexible build plate with an extra replaceable build plate, 0.4mm 240℃ nozzle, 0.4mm 265℃ nozzle, and 0.3mm 240℃ nozzle Creality’s Ender series has been a household name in 3D printing for some time now, and the Ender 3 is the most popular among budget FDM printers for hobbyists and enthusiasts alike.
In addition, the electrical components on this 3D printer include mechanical end-stops to inform the printer when it reached the maximum stroke; an intuitive touchscreen to calibrate the bed, load the filament, and control print jobs; and an in-built camera enabling remote monitoring and control of print jobs via FlashCloud.

As far as build volume goes, the Ender 3 is a clear winner. With its build volume of 220 x 220 x 250 mm, it dwarfs the Adventurer 3’s 150 x 150 x 150 mm. With a transparent front door, left side and top, it is very convenient to monitor prints. The singular printhead of the Adventurer 3 moves on the X and Z axis while the print bed, which is both heated and removable, moves on the Y-axis. According to the engineering team, this configuration can cause defects on objects due to inertia with the print bed. This is increased when the jerk of the machine is too high. However, on smaller machines, like the Adventurer 2, the risk is reduced and inertia is only a minor issue.Premium Option: If you’ve got extra money to spend and aren’t too impressed with the Ender 3 or others in its range, then the Flashforge Adventurer 3 is the better choice. Further delving into this system’s ABS capabilities, a larger bearded man bust model was printed in 10 hours and 48 minutes. The outcome was satisfactory as the layers were not visible and the model kept its original details. Yet, there were small delaminations on the head as well as minor adhesion faults. This is probably due to the fact that the left door was kept open and the printing temperature was not higher than 240°. The 3D printed bearded man bust.
Designed as a teaching tool, the Adventurer 3 will have even the completely inexperienced printing confidently in no time. Even the upgraded Adventurer 3 Pro has the same size build volume, making the standard Ender 3 an easy choice if larger projects are on your horizon.Do you have problems feeding filaments? With the Flashforge Adventurer 3, difficulties are a thing of the past. Simply insert the filament into the automatic filament feed. The Adventurer 3 takes care of everything else itself. Nozzle: detachable, remove nozzle just in one clip; stainless steel tube material, fast heating up to 200°C (392°F) in 50 seconds. Maximum printing temperature at 265 °C As an educational 3D printer, it’s a fantastic introduction to FDM printing that won’t leave you scratching your head. The Flashforge Adventurer 3 belongs to a new generation of intuitive desktop entry-level 3D printers. With the Adventurer 3 you can easily, inexpensively and conveniently achieve good 3D printing results. Thanks to the built-in camera, you can watch your 3D printer from anywhere in the world. Its outstanding properties make the device ideal for beginners. So while the build plate comparison here comes to a tie, the Ender 3 is your best call if you value speed.
With the integrated WLAN module, you can place your 3D printer in the right place without annoying cabling. Simply connect your 3D printer to your home network, computer or mobile device. As a teaching tool, the Adventurer 3 is invaluable, as it’s designed to be used by people of all experience levels and even in schools. The extruders for both the Ender 3 and the Adventurer 3 are comparable. Both have a diameter of 0.4mm and they both heat to the same maximum temperature of 240℃. The build plate can move around too much and cause the build to fail, and may need to be calibrated prior to printingA FlashForge Adventurer 3 review isn’t complete without going over the features. As soon as the Adventurer 3 arrives, you notice its lightweight compact design. It’s fully enclosed, minus a gap on the side where the filament is fed through a hole to the nozzle. The nozzle is easily detached which allows for easy replacement and cleaning. FlashForge also offers an upgraded nozzle with a heating wire to maintain consistent temperature settings for the filament; it’s useful when printing with ABS and other exotic materials. The circular trajectory test was done to further evaluate the capability of the system’s ability to print parts with circular sections. The model is composed of 3 circular sections measuring at 100mm, 65mm, and 20mm. The quality of this print was very good as the surface is smooth and the dimensions are accurate. The circular trajectories did not print in an oval shape as seen in the prior repeatability test suggesting that the printer copes better with larger diameters. The 3D printed circular trajectory test.
Overall, whether large or small, the Adventurer 3 was capable of printing good quality models. Long print jobs, in particular, are not an issue for this 3D printer, as the ABS Notre Dame model printed over 15 hours with no issue. As observed by team, part quality is excellent when all lids are closed making this a great machine for ABS prints. When working with more challenging materials such as ABS, spool storage outside of the system due to the small spool capacity can be a challenge, but affect on prints is negligible if the airflow is properly contained.

The Flashforge Adventurer 3 Lite requires semi-manual calibration to set the offset between the nozzle and the heated build platform. Some 3D printers (like the Monoprice Cadet and Prusa MK3S) use an inductive probe or other sensor to automatically set the offset, and others like the Creality Ender 3 Pro use a manual process that involves turning thumbscrews at the corners of the bed to adjust the offset. Finally, a crank flywheel model was printed to test the machine’s ability to produce mechanical parts in need of assembly. This model was manufactured successfully in 7 hours with very smooth surface parts which made the mechanism easy to put together. The 3D printed crank flywheel. While not perfect by any means, the large build volume and easily earned accolades make the Ender 3 a budget 3D printer fan’s dream.
In terms of repeatability, the Adventurer 3 performs well with standard deviations under 0.05mm, and at times it can reach 0.02mm.
