Product description: Original Prusa MINI Enclosure - 3D printer enclosure
The original Prusa enclosure is an accessory that significantly improves the quality and comfort of the Prusa MINI+ printer . Thanks to its closed design, it minimizes the impact of external factors, such as drafts or temperature changes, which allows for stable printing even with the most demanding filaments . The enclosure is made of high-quality components - the metal frame ensures durability and rigidity, and the transparent PETG side panels allow for full visibility of the work area . Thanks to the passive heat retention inside the chamber, it is possible to print with materials with high processing temperatures, which significantly expands the printer's capabilities. The enclosure can be equipped with useful additions , such as an air filtration system with a HEPA filter, an LED strip or a mechanical lock, which will make it even more functional. The Original Prusa MINI Enclosure is supplied as a self-assembly kit . The 3D printer is not included in the kit.
Original Prusa MINI Enclosure - enclosure for 3D printer.
Main features of the case

Application in practice
The Original Prusa MINI Enclosure allows you to print with materials that would normally warp, such as:
- PC - resistant to temperatures and chemicals, ideal for utility items
- ASA - durable material resistant to UV radiation, suitable for outdoor use
- Nylon - strong and flexible, used in mechanical elements
- PP (polypropylene) - light and flexible, used in packaging and hinges
Additionally, the housing reduces the amount of dust that accumulates on the printer's moving parts, extending its lifespan and reducing the need for maintenance.
Optional accessories
The Original Prusa MINI Enclosure can be expanded with a number of accessories that increase its functionality and safety of use:
- Advanced Air Filtration System - Equipped with a 99.9% efficient HEPA filter, it reduces unpleasant odors and prevents the spread of ultra-fine particles (UFPS) in the air, which is especially useful when printing ASA, ABS and PC.
- White LED strip - provides excellent lighting inside the housing, improving the visibility of the work area and making it easier to monitor the printing process.
- Mechanical lock - additional security against unauthorized access, especially useful in public places such as schools, universities and workshops.
- BlazeCut Fire Suppression System - A self-contained tubular fire extinguishing system that automatically detects temperature increases and activates the extinguishing agent, increasing printer safety.
The manufacturer also allows the housing to be expanded with additional printed parts .
On the Printables portal you can find a special collection of useful 3D printed accessories.
