Print 3X Faster without modifications | Creality Ender 7

[@ApexNick]

This printer used to be good, it's absolute crap now. They've replaced the high end dm542 x and y drivers with their own boards that limits current to 0.8A, put ridiculously large 60mm steppers on to compensate. They've changed the mainboard mount so you can't use aftermarket boards, they've removed the display header connector so you can't use an aftermarket screen. The video where they state 50mm^3/s flow is an absolute pipe dream. I benchmarked mine. -5% flow at 19, -10% at 21, -43% at 23mm^3/s (tested using eSUN PLA Pro (PLA+) at 230 degrees. My results are better than most I've seen with most people saying they are maxing out at 18. The Y axis linear rails are complete trash - even after a good cleaning and proper greasing with Mobil EP2, they feel like rubbing kitty litter across broken glass. It may be part of the reason I lost 2 steppers the first month. No excuse for the PSU fan failure, mainboard fan failure, or mainboard failure. Assuming yours doesn't self destruct the way mine has (I mean, who really expects to get more than 2 days out of a printer anyway) and you get over the z-axis flimsiness/wobble, you''ll get an honest 150mm/s out of this printer. Any more will require a new hot end. To the author of this video: I suggest you look into the facebook, reddit, discord, and even crealitycloud forum posts about this printer before touting it's merits - you are destroying your reputation and making yourself look rather foolish.

we are only repeating the stats given by creality and showing our own experiences...different users can get different results. we have personally printed with this printer as shown in the video without "self destruction"

This printer never used to be good, and was abandoned in record time. Waste of time, as even Creality stated in a podcast.
