FlashForge Adventurer 5M 3D Printer
Printers at this level usually arrive as a box of parts and a weekend of levelling. This one turns up 95 per cent built and levels itself, so you can have something worth keeping off it the first evening. It is the open-frame Adventurer 5M, not the enclosed 5M Pro.
It builds up to 220mm in every direction onto a flexible PEI-coated steel plate. When the print finishes you lift the plate out and bend it, and the part comes away on its own — no scraping and no chisel.
The nozzle swaps in seconds without tools. A 0.4mm one is fitted, with 0.25, 0.6 and 0.8mm available, and it runs to 280°C, which is enough for PLA, PETG, TPU and the carbon-filled filaments. The CoreXY frame accelerates at 20,000 mm/s², which on a real part counts for more than a headline top speed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the 5M or the 5M Pro?
This is the Adventurer 5M. The Pro is a different machine with an enclosure, air filtration and a camera. None of those are on this one.
Does it need assembling?
No. It arrives 95 per cent assembled. There are four Z-axis transport locks to remove before first use, with the Allen key supplied.
What can it print?
PLA and PETG with the 0.4mm nozzle fitted. TPU and carbon-filled PLA and PETG with the 0.6 or 0.8mm nozzles. The nozzle runs to 280 degrees.
Is the 600 mm/s a printing speed?
That is the maximum travel speed, which is the speed the head moves between printing moves. Real printing speed is lower and depends on the part and the material.
How does it connect?
WiFi, Ethernet or USB, with the Flash Maker app for monitoring. Note the app needs an internet connection and will not work in LAN-only mode.

If your goods are damaged or faulty, we will replace the goods free of charge. If you do not want a replacement, delivery charges may be incurred to collect the item from you. Do not install any damaged items. This counts as acceptance of goods and the item is then non-returnable and non-refundable. Damaged goods must be reported within 48 hours of delivery, please contact us by emailing websales@beattys.ie or by phone on (091) 841403. In the event that goods are received in a damaged state please retain the product together with any packaging and contact us within 48 hours of receipt with photographic evidence. In the case of an item being faulty we may require an inspection by a manufacturer's qualified engineer to be carried out on the item in the location where it is installed. This is so the nature of the fault can be ascertained before we can arrange for a replacement.
All products leave our premises in perfect condition. The customer must notify the carrier (or postman) of even the slightest trace of damage (holes, signs of crushing, etc.) to the parcel, and refuse the package if necessary.
