"só que vejo algumas pessoas tendo sérios defeitos com impressoras da creality" Entra em grupos de outras marcas também que vai ver a mesma coisa kkk Eu já tive uma K1 e ela é bem chatinha mesmo, principalmente com PLA se inventar de imprimir com a porta fechada quando claramente tem um adesivo que

I was in the same boat as you. Almost got the Elegoo CC, then they went back on all their promises. Then I found the Creality K1 SE. It was $100 cheaper also. It's basically an updated version of the K1 and k1C, but it doesn't have an enclosure, side cooling fan, exhaust fan, and camera. Currently I

I got the K1 SE as my first printer, and I've had zero issues with it like everyone has been saying about Creality printers. The only issues that have come around have been my own mistakes. My printer performs even better than I expected, and has printed PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS and PC with no issues, ev

The answers to the PLA problems with Creality always seems the same. Open the top to let out the heat that collects up there. There is also a heatsink that can be added to the extruder motor on the K1, might be a gimmick, but it kept my motor a little cooler on my K1 SE. Another thing you might try

I did not buy the upgraded extruder, so I don't know if it works any better. I just bought new metal gears for the stock extruder and it fixed the problem for now. If it happens again I will buy the Creality Official Upgrade K1C/K1 SE/K1 Max Extruder On Amazon for $23 but the gears i bought were lik

Not bad. That's close to my K1 SE and K1 Max at PLA Temps. They didn't need much adjustment on the Belt SkipMy K1C was a Sky Ramp that bowed up on the sides. That took some skips to get right. It still is a little taco, but well with in tolerances now. May have to adjust a side down alittle, the fle

The original K1 max would not work. I upgraded to the 2025 versions on the PCB board and hot end. Works great now. I think there's something different about the pcb board other than the connectors for the hot end. Creality 2025 K1 Max/K1/K1 SE/K1C Hotend Upgrade Ceramic Heating Block, Official New V
