Creality CR-10 V2 3D printer assembly kit

With the Creality3D CR-10 V2, the Chinese company is delivering a continuation and improved version of the popular CR-10 3D printer. Together with the Creality3D 3D, the CR-10 is one of the most well-known and widely used printers on the market. This second version offers some advantages and improvements over the original original version.

Compared to the first CR-10, the CR-10 V2 has a second fan for model cooling. This, in combination with a new fan bracket, provides 55% improved cooling performance. The filament is heated to no more than 30°C during transport, which means that it only melts in the nozzle at exactly the right moment. Creality assumes that this design change alone will increase the precision of the printed products by approximately 10%.

Both the power supply and stepper motor drivers have been revised. The Shenzhen manufacturer now uses reliable Meanwell branded products and the quieter (under 50dB), more precise stepper motor driver TMC2208. The new drivers also enable seamless printing to continue after a power failure. The feeder (material feed) was also replaced with a new design, which consists entirely of metal. Finally, the new version of the CR-10 offers a more stable frame and comes from the house with a filament sensor.

Upgrade options for the Creality3D CR-10 V2
Thanks to the large community around the Creality3D entry-level 3D printers, there are various options for upgrading the printer over time and adding new functions. The manufacturer currently offers two upgrades. Both are not included with the printer, but can be retrofitted at any time. With the original BL-Touch sensor, it is possible to enable an active print bed leveling. The sensor measures individual points on the pressure plate and stores the coordinates. A possible offset is then corrected via the mechanics. The second possible upgrade is a E3D Titan Direct Drive extruder. This filament feed (feeder) can improve the performance of the 3D printer depending on the filament used.

Technical features of the CR-10 V2
The Creality CR-10 V2 has a construction volume of 300 x 300 x 400 mm, which is thus extremely large. Various applications can be realized with the help of the printer. The manufacturer speaks here of the architecture industry, the medical sector, figure printing and robotics.
An additional, diagonal support stabilizes the printer frame even better and thus provides for less vibrations and vibrations, which could ultimately also influence the print result. With the specially coated glass plate, the prints stick ideal without warping and can be removed easily at the same time. The pressure plate is also more heat resistant and durable than a comparable standard glass plate.
