Description
The Creator 5 tackles multicolour printing differently. Instead of pushing every colour through one shared nozzle, it has four independent toolheads, each loaded with its own filament, that dock and swap automatically mid-print. Colour changes need no purging, so there is no pile of wasted filament, and multicolour printing is up to 500% faster.
All four toolheads reach the full 256 x 256 x 256mm build volume, and because each has its own nozzle you can mix materials as well as colours, including soluble PVA or BVOH supports for complex shapes. Fully automatic calibration, a built-in camera and dual-band Wi-Fi round off a serious step up for makers.
What stands out
Four independent toolheads
One toolhead prints while the other three wait in their docks, so every colour or material has its own nozzle. That means less filament waste, less colour contamination and faster switching than feeding every colour through one nozzle.
Zero purge waste
With no shared nozzle to flush out, switching colours or materials does not waste filament on purging.
Fast and precise
600mm/s travel, print speeds up to 300mm/s, 30,000mm/s² acceleration and a 32mm³/s maximum flow rate keep large multicolour models moving.
Calibrates itself
Automatic levelling, multi-toolhead offset calibration and dynamic flow calibration set everything up for clean surfaces and accurate colour placement, with no manual tuning.
Hardened nozzles, wide material choice
Removable hardened-steel nozzles reach 320°C and the textured PEI bed reaches 120°C, handling PLA, PETG, TPU, carbon-fibre blends, silk and soluble supports. With an enclosure, ABS, ASA and nylon composites are supported too.
Keep an eye on it
A built-in 1280 x 720 camera streams at 30fps for remote monitoring, alongside 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi, a 4-inch colour touchscreen and multi-printer management.
