Unbox and Build and Ender 5 Max - new printer from

[@CRIZS_CREATIONS]

Looking forward to this printer. The only thing that I can add is I think Creality needs to improve on is the Extruder spring is set in place where as it needs to be adjustable that's the main flaw in the extruder. Without adjustment relying on a set spring is not great for course filament or tpu. Having a adjustment screw tensioner for the filament feed is a must. Which is a big reason why outside of Extrusion speed that users swap out the extruder.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

Are you going to add co-print to this one?

[@CRIZS_CREATIONS]

@kevin.at.Creality I most likely will being the Creality CMS is not supported it would be Epic to have a 8+ colour build on the Ender 5 Max. If Creality can Collab with me wink wink lol.I would definitely do a Ender 5 Max build with CoPrint Kcm. I have a spare kit ready to go on that CoPrint sent me.

[@randallbro6749]

This is the best ender period. Assembly required and accessories to add on is very welcome. Creality is hands down taking notes from the community and in my opinion the best competitor.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

That's a very nice comment - I am glad you like it.

[@digitaldragon72]

I have an Ender 5 Plus and this seems like a logical next step. A little bit larger print volume and lots of newer tech. I too would like to see this use the Creality Unicorn nozzle as it would reduce maintenance and minimize the chances of leaking filament or breaking a heatbreak when heat tightening the nozzle.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

i'm glad it's not just me! Heating up the nozzle and taking it off and putting it on - I broke my ceramic once. Now the unicorn gives me zero headaches.

[@LoriAnneBrown]

I really want this printer for sure. Glad to see it comes in pieces so I can carry it up to my 2nd floor print farm (ie spare bedroom) little bit at a time. I also want the color Hi. I have no need for enclosures and definitely wouldn't be able to get the K series up my stairs since it's just me and I'm going to be 62 soon.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

I am a fan of the Hi already too. Much easier to put together than this one haha

[@andymcdandycdn6808]

Great video Kevin. Here is a tip for everyone to make unboxing easier for heavy items. Tilt the box on it's side and open the bottom. Move the flaps out of the way and tilt the box back upright and pull up on the box. Gravity will unbox the item for you. That is how I do it like with I recently bought the K1 Max. Makes unboxing so much easier, especially when you are alone.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

That'sa great idea, I will do that at home when I am allowed to cut the bottom of the box lol

[@WARPAINTandUnicorns]

People who would want this: cosplayers that want large single colour prints they will paint will want this so that they don't have the slow print on a bed slinger anymore. Print Farms for sure! The flat pack shipping also reduces shipping damage risks. This is a big printer for big or multiple prints for sure.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

Yeah, flat pack is good for that - good point.

[@lornelorne5727]

Oof. What a difference compared to the K2 Plus! This is like stepping back in time a decade. Looks nice (if it were enclosed) but the setup is a huge step backwards. K2 Plus is the best.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

That's so good that you enjoy the K2 Plus. Thanks for the comments.

[@WARPAINTandUnicorns]

Definatly a Farm Printer for single colour set up. You could in theory set up a Co-Print but this becomes a speciallized build.

[@manuelamot4726]

Kiki and you did a great job! ;) Adding the audio afterward was a good idea, although I would have loved to eavesdrop. The Ender 5 Max really is a huge printer. Everyone would take longer with it compared to the Hi. ;) So many screws - good thing you had each other! And it's great that everything is so well labeled. I love assembling things, even Ikea furniture, lol. The print bed is truly impressive. It's amazing what’s possible these days. Looking forward to many more videos here!

[@kevin.at.Creality]

haha, Kiki is new so I really got to know her. I asked every imaginable question - maybe that should be our new segment: build a printer and interview a staff member at the same time.

[@manuelamot4726]

make a video of the build and show me how to do it better!

[@seraph4d88]

Plastic gears are terrible. The gears on my K1 max broke but I purchased the metal gears on ali express and the printer performs better now. 39:10

[@mycreativeprints9818]

Do you know when they will be released or shipped? I would like to expand my print farm before March… Can you show some more print sample videos?

[@Husky3DPrinting]

Big by huge. I don't need one at this time, but it's honestly nice to see that it's going to be available. I could actually scale up some of my products which would be really cool but I don't think there would be an audience for it... never know!

[@kevin.at.Creality]

I'm watching your channel for videos! Keep them coming!

[@Husky3DPrinting]

[@kevin.at.Creality]

We can print a Creality Hi on this one!

[@KatrinaLeFaye]

Kevin, thank you for your video, that is something I want in my house! How do you keep your hair that way? Much nicer table than I have for my Plus. For the base and supports just move a single corner over the edge of the table, totally doable with one person. Much nicer cable management than the 5 Plus.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

Agree, could do this alone if you had to. But with cameras and filming considerations I didn't want to drop anything. At home I would have built it on the floor - simple.

[@jcadult101]

Ender 5 build, so easy even Kevin can do it.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

Thats exactly what I was thinking too!

[@Walterz930]

Looks like a nice printer I will have to wait and see what I want after my two ender 3 pros with upgrades

[@kevin.at.Creality]

Always something new here at Creality!

[@Walterz930]

@ yah definitely I am going have to speak to the partner about something because after my accident I haven’t been able to work and managed to get the two ender 3 pros in the uk for 100 gbp

[@BlazeT3D]

I like it, I want it. And a k2 plus. Both for the big build volume.

Do you have the space for both of these? wow!

[@realxman2000]

@@CRIZS_CREATIONS thanks for the info, hadn't seen that. I think the more subtle point is the lack of an integrated filament cutter which would complicate using something like the CFS.

[@frisianfdm]

Its nice to have a fukky assembled printer but thats also a good thing to build it yourself so you know everything about evry parts, so that you really know your printer. Depending on the price of it maybe, it can be a good compromise for a farm than the k2

thanks for responding so quick my friend it me darrell aka newfie905 nice video

Hey Darrell - thanks for watching!

[@Burnstation3D]

looks like a v6 nozzle or similar to another printer i have...don't sleep on those nozzles..the long ceramic heater will help push some plastic. its reliable and battle proven hotend design.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

it is so simple and they work. My Ender 3 V3 SE never gave me any troubles with those nozzles.

[@freddes3385]

Im very interested in higher tempature printing, the K2 Plus is

[@kevin.at.Creality]

I think we will see a K2 line of printers. I have not heard anything but it makes sense. They started with one K1 and ended with 4 of them so it's not likely they will have just one K2.

[@mycreativeprints9818]

So what’s the difference between the K2 plus besides it’s bigger than the K2 plus…?

[@kevin.at.Creality]

This does not have an enclosure. Cannot do multi-material printing with the CFS. Enclosure and camera sold separately. No heated chamber like the K2 Plus. No unicorn nozzle like the K2Plus. And it is half the price of the K2Plus. Also this build took me over an hour - the K2Plus would already be done printing 2 benchys after being assembled. lol

[@oneanother1]

Why can't they do multicolor on the ender5 max? No klipper firmware?

[@kevin.at.Creality]

it is Klipper. But they did not make the cutter assembly and all the hardware needed for it. I'm not sure of why - I guess they will focus on certain printers for multi-filament systems and other printers will stay simple.

[@Spacer8D]

My cr-6 max died, I am hoping to replace it with one of these.

[@kevin.at.Creality]

this will be a lot faster - you may need to stock up on filament haha

[@lyndonfoster1090]

Hello, while it is a nice printer I do not understand why, today, some would want a big open frame 3D printer. Who is creality marketing this printer to as compared to the K2 plus? Yes it is a tiny bit bigger but it isn't enclosed . Guess I'll just have to see but with so many printer choices now I fear that creality will not be able to properly support them all and that will hurt them, which is too bad. Thank you for the video though

[@kevin.at.Creality]

Enclosure panels and top are sold separately - likely to keep the cost down for those who want it. Seems like this is aimed at print farms who want big and fast. I agree, I am hoping to make a lot of Ender 5 Max videos so they don't forget about it - totally agree.

[@ylexot007]

Print farms (and most consumers) are primarily printing PLA which doesn't need an enclosure.

[@ylexot007]

Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed in the tool head design. For a printer that is designed to be for print farms, the focus should be on reliability and ease of clearing problems (which are usually in the hot end and extruder). All the other new printers moved towards more reliable, user-friendly designs with the Unicorn nozzles, magnetically attached covers, and windows showing movement of the extruder. Not only did they not adopt those features, but they went backwards and now there are even more screws to remove to get to the extruder. So, it's big and fast, but going to be a PITA to work on. I guess not using the Unicorn means that the nozzles are cheaper to replace, but if it causes more problems (and failed prints), is that a good trade?

[@kevin.at.Creality]

I'm a big fan of the unicorn nozzles too - was very disappointed. And I agree with the thoughts on the magnetic cover and complicated removal of the extruder. Other users seem to like the older nozzles - tried and tested. I guess this is a good reason why we make so many different printers, because everyone has their favorites.

[@jeffamlwch]

The printer is not too big for your house, like me you just need a bigger house

[@kevin.at.Creality]
