CoreXY 3D printers at a glance

On CoreXY printers, only the light print head moves across the area, while the build plate lowers layer by layer. This allows high speeds and keeps tall, slender parts stable. The cube-shaped design is easy to enclose, which is why most enclosed printers are CoreXY printers.

What to look for?

High accelerations make the design fast, even with many small details.
Both drive belts must be tensioned equally, otherwise parts come out skewed.
