Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)3DGence INDUSTRY F350[1]QIDI X-Smart 3, listed in QIDI navigation as X-Smart3[2][3]
Release date (announcement and actual shipping)2021[1]Not published by QIDI on the pages checked (Aug 2026)[2][3]
Launch MSRP (USD)From $30,000 (Aniwaa quotes the same figure in EUR)[1]Not documented
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)Not documented$399 on QIDI's official US page, which routes purchases to its AliExpress and Amazon stores; checked Aug 2026[3]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Part of 3DGence's INDUSTRY line; Aniwaa's page covers only the F350. No live retail listing with a USD price was found, so the $30,000 figure is a starting price, not a street price[1]Entry model of the 3-series. Unlike the X-Plus 3 and X-Max 3 it has no heated chamber, a 300 °C rather than 350 °C hotend, a brass rather than copper-alloy/hardened-steel nozzle head, and no Ethernet. It shares the Cortex-A53 board with them, so control-board specs must not be read as shared print specs[2][4][5]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable40.46 L (340 x 340 x 350 mm)[1]175 x 180 x 170 mm advertised[2][3]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)1825 x 960 x 940 mm[1]370 x 362 x 397 mm[2]
Net weight (kg)335 kg[1]10.5 kg[2]
Frame construction & materialNot documentedQIDI publishes no frame-material breakdown for this model[2]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidEnclosed with a heated chamber[1]No heated chamber. 3DJake's table records "Heated chamber: No"; QIDI does not describe an enclosure for this model[2]
Passive chamber temperature reached (if enclosed; measured values preferred)140 °C maximum chamber temperature (manufacturer specification, actively heated)[1]Not documented
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Two extruders; kinematic layout not stated on the source checked[1]CoreXY[2][3]
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)Not documented<=500 mm/s (manufacturer claim)[2][3]
Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²)Not documented20,000 mm/s2 (manufacturer claim)[3]
Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s)Not documented30 mm3/s extruder flow (manufacturer claim)[2][3]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameTwo extruders[1]Direct-drive extruder, single, 1.75 mm filament[2][3]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Not documentedBrass nozzle head. 0.4 mm stock, 0.2/0.6/0.8 mm optional[2][3]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)500 °C maximum nozzle temperature (manufacturer specification)[1]<=300 °C claimed[2][3]
Stock nozzle material (brass / hardened steel / plated copper / composite tip)Not documentedBrass[2]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit160 °C maximum bed temperature[1]<=120 °C claimed[2][3]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedNot documentedDouble-sided flexible magnetic RF plate[2]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Not documented16-point automatic bed levelling per QIDI's US page; probe technology not named[3]
Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence)Not documented16 points (QIDI's US page). Not verified against firmware[3]
Filament Handling & Detection
Filament runout sensor (type, location)Not documentedFilament detection fitted; type and location not published[2]
Electronics & Power
Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded LinuxNot documentedCortex-A53 64-bit at 1.5 GHz, 1 GB DDR3, 8 GB eMMC[2]
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)Not documented100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz[2]
Total rated power drawNot documented350 W rated[2]
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not documentedKlipper[3]
Connectivity, UI & Camera

WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveNot documentedWi-Fi and USB. No Ethernet listed for this model[2][3]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listPLA, ABS, ASA, PET, PA6, PA-CF, PEEK and various composites[1]Not documented
Reliability, Support & Ecosystem
Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes)Not documented1-year coverage (QIDI standard store terms)[6]

Manufacturer claims, independent measurements, packages and test conditions retain their source wording. FDM linear speed and resin vertical speed use different units and are not directly comparable. Unknown values are marked “Not documented”. Prices and source dates remain historical snapshots; check the linked guide for product details. Differences highlight text, not a universal winner.
