The Magneto X from Peopoly was the company’s first FDM 3D printer. Furthermore, it included linear motors to do away with belts and pulleys. After examining the technical aspects of this system previously, I set out to give this machine a proper review. After many hours of tuning, printing and fitting updated parts, we aim to answer two questions. Is this printer ideal for engineering style filaments, and does it ‘just work’ or require a level of tinkering?

This machine was provided free of charge by Peopoly for the purposes of review. The previous, prototype Magneto X was donated to a school. This printer has been tested in accordance with my review policy. All opinions expressed are my own.
