What is Enclosed?

Enclosed means the machine has a sealed housing around the working area, usually clear panels or a hinged lid, instead of an open frame. The enclosure holds back fumes, dust and moving parts, which matters indoors and around children or pets, and it normally adds to the price and the overall footprint. Every maker in this group sells an enclosed model: ACMER, ALTERNATE, Anycubic, Artillery3D and AtomStack. The trade-off is reach: a sealed bed is harder to load with oversized or awkward parts, so weigh that against the cleaner, tidier working area.
