Creality is a company specialising in the design and production of 3D printing related products. Undoubtedly, this company is known for having some of the best-selling 3D printers on the market, due to its great value for money. Creality offers a wide variety of quality 3D printer models that adapt to the user's needs and at a much lower cost than other brands.

Creality Ender-6 is a domestic FDM 3D printer with a closed cabin on the sides. Its print volume is 250 x 250 x 400 mm, so the user can print large parts.

High speed and precision

Creality highlights its Ender-6 model by achieving a print speed of up to 150 mm/s and an accuracy of 0.1 mm.

These features are made possible by its solid and robust metal cabinet, which has transparent covers on the sides for easy viewing of the printing process.

Materials

Creality 3D printers are Opensource, so they can print with materials of any brand. The Creality Ender 6, thanks to its enclosed cabinet on the sides, keeps the printing area free from draughts and sudden temperature variations. This makes it possible to use a wide variety of FDM 3D printing filaments.

Silent 3D printer

The Creality Ender-6 is equipped with an ultra-quiet TMC-2208 motion controller to keep the printing process quiet (below 50dB). In addition, its very solid structure prevents vibrations.

Ease of use

Creality Ender-6 has a carborundum glass printing surface that offers great adhesion to materials. In addition, once cooled, it allows for easy removal of 3D printed parts.

To reduce the print failure rate, the Ender-6 is equipped with an intelligent filament sensor that interrupts the printing process in case of missing or broken filament. At the same time, once new material has been inserted, it allows printing to resume at the point where it was paused. This function is also useful in the event of a power failure.

To enhance the user experience and make it easier to select functions and configure settings, Creality Ender-6 includes a 4.3" colour touch screen.

This 3D printer is ideal for home environments and users who are new to 3D printing. Thanks to its closed structure on the sides, the work area is kept clean, with no printing residue.

The user manual can be found on the SD card included with the 3D printer. In addition, Creality offers a multitude of content on its youtube channel, where the user can find tutorials on assembly, maintenance or modification of the 3D printer.
