Creality announces the $1,200 K2 Pro 3D printer — complete with dual AI cameras, smart bed leveling and support for up to 16 filaments via a CFS

Creality are a well known name in the 3D printing community. Over the years it has grown a steady, reliable 3D printing community alongside a line of products that recently has held a firm place at the top of our favorites’ lists. Today, Creality has launched a new CoreXY 3D printer. The printer isn’t out yet and we haven’t had a chance to review it just yet but we do have an idea of what to expect spec-wise. The new printer is known as the Creality K2 Pro and it has a product page listed on the official Creality store.

It’s important to note that there are reports from 3D Printing Industry of another 3D printer releasing alongside the K2 Pro known just as the K2. This printer appears to be a lower spec version of the K2 Pro, but, as of writing, we’re unable to find any official information about the K2 from Creality as the only product listing we could find is for the K2 Pro.

The Creality K2 Pro is an FDM printer with a heated chamber (up to 60C) for better temperature control while printing, important for filaments such as ABS of PPA-CF. The CoreXY design provides a stable print area and enables the extruder to move quickly around the chamber. Its not listed on the product page, but we are pretty sure that it uses a fork of Klipper, just like the K2 Plus.
