At 8:00 PM on August 1, 2025, Creality officially launched the pre-sale of its latest FDM 3D printers — the K2 and K2 Pro — on JD.com, Tmall, and other major e-commerce platforms. As new members of the flagship lineup, these models join last year’s K2 Plus, creating a “three-pronged” portfolio. The K2 Plus, with its large-format build volume and near-industrial-grade performance, has become the “industrial necessity” for large enterprises and advanced R\&D teams. The addition of the K2 and K2 Pro further enriches the flagship family, covering a wide range of user demands for print quality, size, value, and performance.
Whether your priority is high precision, large build capacity, or a balanced approach between performance and value, the K2 Series has an option for you. The K2 Pro is the benchmark for professional-grade engineering — the “stable and durable” choice for SMEs, meeting core needs in precision and stability. The K2 is a lightweight entry-level tool — the “perfect beginner’s printer” — designed for ease of use and accessibility. Pre-orders open at 8:00 PM on August 1, offering an early chance to explore the new creative possibilities of the K2 lineup.
Unleash Color: Expanding the Creative Spectrum The K2 Series can be paired with Creality’s CFS Smart Filament Management System, featuring a four-spool design that supports automatic material feeding and switching. This enables effortless multi-color and multi-material printing. When four CFS units are linked, up to 16 colors can be used in a single print, unlocking unlimited creative potential. For support structures, the system can load dedicated soluble materials, which can be cleanly removed after printing without marring the surface finish, preserving fine details.
Beyond printing, the CFS features a sealed chamber with dual desiccant slots and temperature-humidity monitoring, ensuring optimal filament storage and consistent material performance.
Size Versatility: A Printer for Every Scenario * K2 Plus: 350 × 350 × 350 mm³ — the “size ceiling” for industrial applications, capable of printing large automotive molds, aerospace prototypes, and large jigs in a single piece. Perfect for batch production of smaller models. * K2 Pro: 300 × 300 × 300 mm³ — a balanced format suitable for most industrial prototyping and creative design needs, blending scale and flexibility. * K2: 260 × 260 × 260 mm³ — tailored for personal projects and home DIY, with practical value and easy placement.
To meet the structural demands of large-format printing, the K2 Series adopts a die-cast aluminum alloy frame for rigidity, effectively suppressing vibration during printing. The X-axis uses high-precision linear rails, while the Z-axis employs a dual-leadscrew and four-guide-rod design, ensuring precision and platform stability during high-speed motion, even for large, detailed models.
Material Mastery: Tackling High-Difficulty Filaments The K2 Series is built to handle demanding engineering materials, thanks to its custom high-temperature setup: * 350°C high-temp nozzle for ABS, ASA, and other heat-resistant filaments. * Hardened steel nozzle tip for long-term durability when printing fiber-reinforced materials like PLA-CF. * Optimized flow channel delivering a 40 mm³/s extrusion rate for smoother PETG prints. * Active 60°C heated chamber on the K2 Pro and K2 Plus to reduce warping and improve success rates for complex materials.
From heat-resistant to fiber-reinforced filaments, the K2 Series pushes consumer-grade boundaries toward quasi-industrial performance, offering dependable support for engineering prototypes and high-strength functional parts.
Precision Through Hardware–Software Synergy The K2 Series is equipped with servo motors on both motion axes and the extruder, ensuring stable, precise printing while reducing heat buildup and extending service life.
Its proprietary software algorithms are equally advanced: * Next-gen zoned leveling optimizes first-layer quality by intelligently targeting the relevant print area. * Anti-vibration algorithm actively compensates for inertial oscillations to prevent surface artifacts. * Micro-nozzle cameras (on K2 Pro and K2 Plus) with AI algorithms monitor extrusion in real time, auto-calibrating PA values and flow rates to prevent under- or over-extrusion.
Intuitive and Quiet: Printing Without Barriers With a “low-entry, high-experience” design philosophy, the K2 Series takes just 10 minutes from unboxing to first print, even for beginners. The built-in chamber camera detects printing issues early, supports timelapse capture, and documents the entire creation process.
Noise levels are kept below 45 dB even at 300 mm/s high-speed printing, thanks to servo motors, dynamic balancing fans, and the sealed chamber.
Creality’s full software ecosystem supports the experience: * Creality Print on PC features upgraded slicing algorithms, a model-sharing community, and remote-control functions. * Creality Cloud mobile app enables on-the-go print management.
In essence, the K2 Series meets multi-color, large-format, high-precision, and advanced material printing needs, while ergonomically refining user interaction and leveraging AI for higher print success rates. Whether for intricate display models, high-strength functional parts, or batch production — for enterprise or personal use — the K2 Series is designed to be your reliable partner in creativity.
