Before becoming a popular manufacturer of printers, Sindoh used to make regular old 2D printers.
Over the years, it is working hard and earning a name in the field of 3D printing technology with its desktop 3D printers.
It is noteworthy how Sindoh has left the race of developing industrial 3D printers and is instead busy catering to the office environment.
The printer that we are going to discuss in detail in this article is a high-end desktop 3D printer with a closed frame and a heated print bed for obtaining optimal 3D prints in parts and functional prototypes.
Features
Apart from having a fairly large build volume Sindoh 3DWOX DP200 is very stylish, has a clean frame that houses everything neatly and tidily.
It is to be noted how its competitors are known to provided 3D printers which have a lot of wires and cables. In such a context Sindoh has done an excellent job of clearing all that out from its way.
Another interesting aspect of this printer is the big and best user interface which lets users interact and monitor the 3D printer easily.
Print Volume: Printing big items is always a top choice for all the 3D printing enthusiasts and this 3D printer by Sindoh does fulfill their top choice. By featuring a 210 mm * 200 mm * 195 mm build area Sindoh satisfies every expectation of small business owners as well as big manufacturers of parts and functional prototypes in various fields such as Aerospace, Medical, Jewelry, etc. Having said so, we do not intend to state that the printer has the largest build size on the market, but it is definitely big enough. Also, it is easy to print complicated prints too on this 3D printer. Cleanliness is where Sindoh truly steals the show.
Closed Body: Arguably, this feature has its own limitation, but then which feature does not? The design of the printer is to offer its user an enclosed structure for maintaining a consistent temperature throughout the 3D printing process. And by having a clean environment of 3D printing, in a closed frame, Sindoh 3DWOX DP200 becomes more eccentric than its competitors in the same price range. The exposure to all the moving parts of the printer is not as much as it is in other 3D printers which are open bodied, which expands the life-cycle of this printer.
Automatic loading of filament: Understanding the importance of lessening human intervention during manufacturing procedure, Sindoh has accommodated this important feature of taking in the filament on its own, rather than asking hands to do the duty. This reduces human effort by not letting one go through the painstaking duty of cutting, retrieving, as well as placing the new filament into small holes. Whenever you would place a new filament cartridge into this printer, the remaining duties would be done automatically. So, you may thank the printer if you wish to!
Assisted Bed Leveling: For calibrating the print bed Sindoh has guided you with an assisted bed leveling feature in their 3D printer. The benefits of leveling a printer’s bed before starting any printing process are huge. It allows one to print with an immense amount of precision especially while printing the first layer of any print. The software of this printer also works in coordination with the user in providing extremely useful information for turning how many screws, when, for calibrating the print bed of this printer. Whereas the user interface gives you a visual representation of what to do and also let you actively monitor the printing progress.
LCD Screen: The screen placed on this printer is extremely useful in various stages of the 3D printing process. Before printing it is helpful in checking various parameters of the printing procedure. During the time of 3D printing, it is useful for monitoring the 3D printing process. Whereas, the 3D printing process is helpful for assisting the one doing the post-processing procedure. The menus of the screen are clear, the navigation is simple, and the lucid language used on the interface provides ease in mentality. A preview of the file can be viewed using this touch screen, as well as one can live to monitor the 3D printing process.
Multiple modes of connectivity: For all those who wish to operate a 3D printer from many home devices that might be remotely present, not physically around the printer, congratulations, Sindoh is capable of doing so. You can connect to this 3D printer via a Wi-fi connection and then everyone who is present on the network will be able to access and use the 3D printer. Apart from the Wi-fi, you can also connect with the printer using a USB cable as well as printing from the USB stick. Overall, you are able to connect the 3D printer with any device you wish to.

First Impressions
The printer arrives at your place in a wooden crate which is different than any other 3D printer in the market.
There is hardly any safer material than a wooden crate for transporting a machine such as a 3D printer from one place to the other safely, so the manufacturer should be appreciated for this.
The complete box contains the 3D printer, and there is no junk material present inside it.
Setup
As mentioned above the printer has an assisted bed leveling feature that can be accessed anytime, and a part of this would require you to set up the printer before your first print.
However, this would not take much time. But it does require user input for adjustment of three thumbscrews.
The overall calibration is not much of a headache and turns out to be easy, Sindoh hasn’t got it fully automated for making the machine simpler.
There is a five-inch touch screen interface that is responsive and intuition acknowledging.
Also, there are greater calibration options such as Z-Axis offset whenever needed in any specific 3D printing project. After the bed leveling is done, one can easily print using this printer.
In case you wish to know how the 3D printer works with Wi-fi there is a complete page dedicated to this topic on the menu page on the printer.
For setting up the 3D printer you will have to connect a phone or laptop to this network and then find the SSID and enter your password.
Print Type/Cost
FDM 3D printing technology which is the most preferred technology is used to print parts and functional prototypes with Sindoh 3DWOX DP200.
This technology is believed to print at lower costs than other 3D printing technologies.
As printing happens layer by layer using 3D printer filament which is melted on the print bed of this printer.
Print Quality
