Nervous about your first layer?
Beacon is so fast, it scans right before the first layer, measuring exactly what you’re printing on.
Fast Surface Mesh
Beacon directly measures distance for rapid mesh construction at up to 500mm/s, without ever moving the z axis.
Uncompromising Precision
Meticulously optimized to achieve 0.5um resolution at 1k samples per second with <350nm typical standard deviation.
High Temperature
Rated up to 115°C ambient and designed for minimal thermal drift and equipped with active temperature compensation.
On-Board Accelerometer
Klipper’s first high temperature rated accelerometer for simplifying resonance measurement and compensation.
2nd Generation Design
Optimized materials and design achieve +15% sensitivity, -40% thermal drift, and improved durability against minor abrasions.
Beacon Technology
Beacon uses eddy current to scan your print surface at the sub-micron level for consistent results and high repeatability.
