Integrated all-metal construction with a robust portal for stable printing. The smooth surface of the portal appears simple and aesthetic. The all-metal Bowden extruder has a higher extrusion force and is more durable. An additional knob facilitates the smooth feeding and retracting of the filament.
3. Creality K1C
Creality K1C The K1C builds on the success of the highly praised Creality K1 and is a closed-core XY FDM printer with speeds of up to 600 mm/s. The K1C is designed to compete with the best 3D printers in the industry, setting a new standard with its all-metal hotend, improved motor system, and innovative build plate. The capabilities of the K1C extend beyond PLA, as it is specifically optimized for the use of carbon fiber filament - the "C" in K1C stands for Carbon. Additionally, the K1C hotend can reach and maintain temperatures of up to 300 degrees Celsius, and its direct drive system is designed to handle carbon fiber filament with exceptional performance.
New All-Metal Extruder Kit The extruder is optimized to tightly grip the filament without slippage. The copper nozzle with a steel tip is equipped with a titanium alloy to prevent heat buildup and allow for quick changes.
Use of CF Filaments With a 300℃ hotend and a hardened steel nozzle tip, the K1C can use carbon fiber-filled filaments to print 3D models with excellent mechanical strength as well as high wear and deformation resistance.
No Vibration at High Speed The K1C can print at speeds of up to 600 mm/s while avoiding vibrations. The metal frame is extremely stable, as it contains die-cast parts with fewer seams and connections. The print head fans are dynamically balanced to rotate smoothly while cooling the hotend and during 3D printing. Additionally, the G-sensor in the print head eliminates resonance with the input shaping. Therefore, your prints will not be affected by ringing or ghosting.
Silent Mode & Air Purifier Whenever you desire peace and quiet, simply switch to Silent Mode, where the noise level is less than 4 dB.
4. Creality K1C 2025 version
Ultra-Fast CoreXY System

Clog-Free Extruder & Tri-Metal Nozzle
The robust dual-gear extruder, reinforced with a spring and ball plunger, ensures a stable and consistent grip on the filament. The Tri-Metal "Unicorn" nozzle, featuring a steel tip, copper body, and titanium heat break, resists clogs and can be replaced in seconds.
Carbon Fiber Compatibility
With a hardened steel nozzle, enclosed build chamber, and 300°C hotend, the K1C 2025 easily handles abrasive carbon fiber filaments such as PA-CF and PET-CF, as well as high-temperature materials like ASA and PC.
Smart Features & Automation
From one-button automatic calibration and real-time monitoring with an AI camera to an integrated air filter and quiet mode (45 dB), the K1C 2025 is designed for a seamless printing experience. Creality OS, along with Creality Print and Creality Cloud, ensures easy control, connectivity, and workflow.
