Another Dual-Nozzle 3D Printer? Creality’s New Machine Leaked Ahead of Launch

A recently leaked image of what appears to be a new Creality 3D printer has sparked excitement in the maker community. The photo suggests the machine could feature a dual-nozzle system, similar to Bambu Lab’s H2D multi-color printing setup.

While it’s still unclear whether this printer will include additional functions like laser engraving or cutting, Creality has officially announced an 11th-anniversary event and spring product launch on April 9, where all details will be revealed.

1. Key Features of the New Machine (Speculation)

(1) Dual-Nozzle for Multi-Color & Multi-Material Printing

The leaked image hints at a dual-extruder design, possibly enabling multi-color printing or hybrid material compatibility (e.g., PLA + TPU).

Creality already has experience with multi-color solutions like the K2 Plus Combo and Creality Hi Combo, so this new model may improve filament switching efficiency and print reliability.

(2) High-Speed Printing & Smart Optimization

Recent Creality printers have pushed speed limits, such as:

• Ender-3 V3 KE (500mm/s)
• K1C (600mm/s, supports carbon fiber)

This new model could maintain high-speed performance while introducing AI-assisted calibration (e.g., vibration compensation, flow control) for better print quality.

(3) Expandable Functionality?

There’s no confirmation yet on whether the printer will support laser engraving or CNC cutting, but Creality already offers the Falcon laser module series, so future expansions via modular attachments remain a possibility.

2. What to Expect at the April 9 Launch Event

(1) Technical Specifications

• Will it support engineering materials like carbon fiber or TPU?
• Will the build volume be larger than competitors?
• Will Creality OS or slicer software (e.g., Creality Print 6.0) receive upgrades for multi-color printing?

(2) Ecosystem Expansion & New Products

Beyond the dual-nozzle printer, Creality may also unveil:

• New 3D scanners (e.g., CR-Scan series refresh)
• High-speed filaments (e.g., Hyper-PLA Pro)
• Smart accessories (auto-filament switching, AI monitoring)

(3) User Perks & Giveaways

Past Creality launch events included live giveaways (like free Ender-3 printers) and limited-time discounts, so similar promotions are likely this time.

3. Market Competition & Positioning

(1) Challenging Bambu Lab’s H2D

If this printer targets the consumer multi-color segment, it will need to compete on price (the K2 Plus was priced at ~$1,499) and user-friendliness (e.g., automatic switching, failure detection).

(2) Industrial & Educational Applications

Creality has been expanding into industrial uses (medical, footwear) while maintaining education-friendly features (safety, curriculum integration). This new model may cater to both markets.

4. User Expectations & Potential Challenges

• Multi-Color Performance: Can it reduce filament waste and switching time?
• Filament Compatibility: Will it require specialized high-speed materials?
• Pricing Strategy: Can it undercut competitors while offering similar features?

Final Thoughts: Stay Tuned for April 9!

Details remain scarce, but the April 9 launch event will provide all the answers. Follow Creality’s official channels or 3D printing news sites like Makerworld101 for updates.
