Lotmaxx SC-10

The Lotmaxx SC-10 is an FDM 3D printer from Lotmaxx with a 300 x 300 x 400 mm build volume.

Calibration

• Bed Leveling with the Single-Point Probe
• Procedure: Begin by heating the bed to 60°C and the hotend to 190°C. Use the printer’s touchscreen menu to initiate the auto-leveling routine. The probe will lower to the bed and measure the distance. If the printer fails to detect the bed, manually adjust the bed height using the adjustment feet. Repeat the process until the probe consistently detects the bed.

Common defects

• Hardware defects and mechanical weaknesses
• Symptom: The heated glass bed warps over time, leading to poor first-layer adhesion.
• Cause: The glass bed is not tempered and expands unevenly when heated.
• Solution: Replace the glass bed with a borosilicate glass alternative or add a PEI sheet for better adhesion.
• Symptom: The CoreXY belts stretch after prolonged use, causing misalignment.

What it is used for

The Lotmaxx SC-10 is a versatile printer suited for a range of applications, though it has limitations that users should consider.

1. Medium-Scale Prototyping

The printer’s 300 x 300 x 400 mm build volume makes it ideal for printing medium-sized prototypes, such as mechanical assemblies, enclosures, and functional parts.
