HALOT-X1 Resin Printing Flagship: Performance Beyond Specifications

In the resin printing realm, Creality unveiled the groundbreaking HALOT-X1. Featuring the world’s first dynamic light source + static build platform system, it stabilizes the model and platform while moving only the light source and resin vat—eliminating Z-axis vibration-induced artifacts. Its dual-linear rail, dual-lead screw system ensures industrial-grade precision. A twist-release platform enables damage-free detachment in seconds.

With 92-zone smart exposure, the load on the LCD screen is drastically reduced, doubling its lifespan while optimizing energy efficiency. HALOT-X1 delivers 16K ultra-high-resolution printing with 14×19μm micron-level accuracy. The chamber’s thermal circulation utilizes light source heat to maintain consistent printing, while a fast-release resin vat reduces handling time.

The optional AFU module offers automatic resin feeding, heating, RFID-based identification, and real-time resin level detection. Whether for high-volume production or fine-detail projects, HALOT-X1 consistently performs at the highest standard.

Creality Cloud: AI-Powered Experience with an Upgraded Incentive Ecosystem

The world’s most downloaded 3D printing app, Creality Cloud, now enters a new phase with Version 6.0, focusing on AI enhancements, user incentives, and holistic experience upgrades. Driven by user needs and co-creation, the platform reimagines the 3D printing ecosystem.
