3.2 Large Build Volume
With a maximum build size of 11.8 x 11.8 x 15.7 inches (300x300x400mm), the Sidewinder X4 Plus is ideal for printing larger models. The stable triangular structure, reinforced by a rear side tie bar, effectively reduces vibration during printing, ensuring stability for large prints.

Figure 6: Illustrates the larger print volume capability, suitable for more model printing.
3.3 XY-Axis Linear Guides
The printer incorporates metal linear rails on the X and Y axes, providing highly accurate and smooth linear motion. This design ensures precise positioning and stability of the print head, leading to more accurate print results and improved wear resistance compared to traditional rubber rollers.

3.4 Extruder and Cooling System
The printer features an optimized dual-motor, dual-Z-axis motion structure with a direct extruder. An 8,000 rpm cooling system ensures efficient melting and rapid cooling of filament. The all-metal hotend supports printing temperatures up to 300°C, allowing compatibility with various filaments like PLA, TPU, PETG, ABS, and Nylon.

3.5 Automatic Bed Leveling
The 121-point auto-leveling system uses a high-precision sensor to collect deviation data across the print bed, automatically compensating for any unevenness of the hotbed. This ensures a perfect first layer and consistent print quality.

3.6 Connectivity and Control
The Sidewinder X4 Plus supports remote printing and slice preview, allowing for convenient operation from a computer or phone via WiFi link. The Klipper firmware's Resonance Compensation function intelligently adjusts motion control during X/Y-axis acceleration, reducing overflow and print resonance for smoother, clearer models.

4. Техникалык тейлөө
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your 3D printer. Perform the following tasks periodically:
- Басма керебетти тазалоо: After each print, clean the print surface with isopropyl alcohol to remove any residue and ensure good adhesion for future prints.
- Соплолорду текшерүү: Соплонун бүтөлүп же эскирип калганын мезгил-мезгили менен текшерип туруңуз. Зарыл болсо, алмаштырыңыз.
- Кыймылдуу бөлүктөрүн майлоо: Apply a small amount of lubricant to the linear rails and Z-axis lead screws every few months to ensure smooth movement.
- Желдетүүчү тазалоо: Use compressed air to clean dust from the cooling fans to maintain efficient cooling.

5. Кыйынчылыктарды
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Artillery Sidewinder X4 Plus. For more detailed troubleshooting, refer to the official Artillery support resources.
| Көйгөй | Мүмкүн себеп | Чечим |
|---|---|---|
| Printer Halted / Error Messages | Firmware issue, loose connection, or component failure. | Restart the printer. Check all cable connections. If persistent, consult Artillery support for firmware reinstallation or component diagnosis. |
| Poor First Layer Adhesion | Unleveled bed, dirty print surface, incorrect nozzle Z-offset. | Perform auto bed leveling. Clean the print surface thoroughly. Adjust Z-offset during the first layer of a test print. |
| Extrusion Issues (Clogging, Under-extrusion) | Nozzle clog, incorrect temperature, filament tangle, worn extruder gear. | Perform a cold pull to clear the nozzle. Verify print temperature settings. Ensure filament spool unwinds freely. Inspect and clean extruder gears. |
| Warped Prints | Insufficient bed adhesion, drafts, incorrect bed temperature. | Ensure proper bed adhesion (e.g., glue stick, hairspray). Print in an enclosed environment or away from drafts. Adjust bed temperature according to filament type. |
