Özet
Three-dimensional (3D) printing has revolutionized manufacturing by enabling rapid prototyping, customization, and cost-effective production. Large-format 3D printers offer significant advantages in fabricating sizable components with improved structural integrity and reduced assembly requirements. This study presents an experimental comparative analysis of four widely used large-volume 3D printers: K1, CR-10SE, Ender-3S1 Pro, and Ender-3V3 SE. Unlike previous studies that rely solely on technical specifications, this research evaluates the real-world performance of these printers based on key parameters, including print speed (160-600 mm/s), nozzle and heated bed temperature capacities (260-300°C and 100-110°C, respectively), acceleration (up to 20,000 mm/s²), and material compatibility. Furthermore, benchmark geometry tests were conducted to assess dimensional accuracy, surface roughness, and total print time under controlled conditions. The results indicate that the K1 and CR-10SE models demonstrate superior high-speed and high-temperature performance, making them well-suited for industrial applications requiring rapid production cycles and multi-material printing. In contrast, the Ender-3 series offers a balance between affordability and functionality, making them ideal for educational and hobbyist use. This study provides a data-driven, experimental framework for selecting the most suitable 3D printer based on application-specific requirements.
