Creality K1 Max 3D Printer

It's the next iteration of 3D printer technology, with high-speed mechanics married to very clever software to get amazing printing speeds; up to 10x the speed of the previous generation. The Creality K1 Max can move up to 600mm/s - compare that to the Ender-3 Pro's 60mm/s!

And with a lightweight direct-drive extruder/hotend, it can accelerate at an impressive 20m/s² - that's twice as fast as the acceleration due to gravity! That means it can quickly get up to speed, then slow down again during a print, which is part of the reason it can print so fast.

Part of the magic of the K1 series is the software-to-hardware calibration. When calibrating, the system actually shakes the printer and measures how it responds, then the software incorporates these responses into the printing process so it best knows how to speed up and slow down the hotend for the best results.

In addition to all the great standard features, the K1 Max also ups-the-ante with LiDAR bed leveling precision, built-in monitoring camera, and a cavernous 300 x 300 x 300mm build volume!

Features:

• Ships practically fully assembled – remove a few shipping screws run the automatic self-test and calibration routine, and you're ready to print.
• Direct drive extruder rated to 300°C, capable of 32mm³/s of filament flow. That's almost a full cubic centimeter of plastic every 3 seconds!
• Automatic bed leveling uses strain gauges for an accurate and consistent first layer.
• 1µm resolution build-surface LiDAR (that's 1/1000 of a mm. Or about 0.000039 inch. It's high-resolution scanning!)
• Monitor print progress locally using the built in web interface or from anywhere using the Creality Cloud application.
• CoreXY mechanical movement system driven by the CrealityOS (which is a fork of the ground-breaking Klipper firmware) allows for fast prints without sacrificing quality.
• Fully enclosed metal frame makes ABS and other hard to print materials possible (and useful for those owning cats!).
• Dual part cooling fans – one on the hotend and another monstrous auxiliary part-cooling fan mounted inside the case.
• Plug-and-play optional accessories such as a camera and LiDAR for additional features.
• Light bar for illuminating your print progress.
• Load files over ethernet, Wi-Fi or via USB thumb stick – no more fiddly micro SD cards!
• Removable complete top cover for thermal control and easy maintenance access.
• Removable PEI powder-coated spring-steel build platform.

Differences from the K1:

• Bigger build volume of 300 x 300 x 300mm (vs the K1's 220 x 220 x 250mm)
• Ethernet connectivity in addition to just Wifi & USB
• Included USB monitoring camera (K1 is wired for it, but does not have the camera included)
• LiDAR surface sensor for precision bed-leveling and extrusion checking (for auto-tuning the filament flow rate). It actually lays down a zig-zag pattern and measures the "blob" at the corners to calculate the best flow-rate.
• Air filter included (rather than the K1's simple fan-exhaust)
• Glass top-cover (rather than magnetically attached plastic)
• High-speed AC-powered heated bed
