Creality K2 Pro Combo 3D PrinterCreality K2 Pro is a premium 3D printer created for the most demanding users - enthusiasts, engineers or creatives who expect excellent quality, reliability and flexibility. It combines high printing speed (up to 600 mm/s), actively heated chamber, intelligent AI systems and the ability to work with several colors of filament simultaneously (after installing the CFS module). In addition, it offers automatic leveling and a large workspace - as large as 300 × 300 × 300 mm. All this creates a complete professional 3D printing tool. The kit includes not only the 3D printer, but also one CFS module.Print in multiple colors and materialsThe new CFS (Creality Filament System) module allows printing with several filaments simultaneously. With one unit, the printer supports four colors, and when four are connected, up to 16 colors or materials. The unit provides automatic filament recognition, precise management, auto-addition, moisture protection, as well as real-time temperature and humidity display. As a result, the K2 Pro allows you to create complex, colorful models without interruptions or material waste. Note: you will find one CFS module included. To use more colors and materials, purchase additional units.High speed and precision printingThe K2 Pro achieves speeds of up to 600 mm/sec and acceleration of up to 20,000 mm/sec², which noticeably reduces working time while maintaining the highest reproduction quality. Step-servo motors on the X/Y axes and in the extruder, controlled by the FOC system, are responsible for smooth and precise movement. As a result, the printer runs extremely quietly and stably, and the surface quality of the models remains excellent - even at high speeds.Professional extrusion systemThe new direct extruder with filament positioning sensors ensures accurate material flow and feed control. It uses hardened steel gears capable of working with carbon fiber-reinforced filaments. A hotend with a flow rate of 40 mm³/s enables printing from a wide range of materials, while the modular design and magnetic cover facilitate quick head removal and maintenance.Stable construction and precision mechanicsThe printer's frame is made of durable aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, which guarantees rigidity and resistance to vibration. The steel X-axis guide features high precision and durability, and the dual Z-axis system supported by four linear rods ensures excellent stability of the work table movement without layer shifts. The result? Exceptionally smooth and consistent print surfaces!Active heating of the working chamberThe K2 Pro maintains a stable temperature in the chamber (up to 60°C), which allows you to print from demanding filaments such as ABS, ASA, PPA or PPS without any problems. Heating the chamber eliminates the risk of distortion, and a small auxiliary fan improves layer adhesion, which is extremely important when creating technical and usable parts such as phone holders or cup holders.Intelligent AI systems and automationThe K2 Pro is equipped with two AI cameras that monitor the printing process. A camera located on the nozzle regulates the flow of material in real time and detects potential blockages. The camera mounted in the chamber, on the other hand, controls the entire printing process, detects errors (for example, the spaghetti effect), checks the heating plate and enables the creation of time-lapse videos of the prints. Built-in automation systems also include intelligent table leveling. All this makes printing complex models easier and helps avoid the most common problems!Extensive software ecosystemCreality OS software provides full control over K2 Pro features, expert mode and the option to manage multiple filaments. And the completely redesigned Creality Print software offers more than 40 ready-made presets to match different materials, a 3MF multi-color mode, and LAN control of different printers. Also at your disposal is the Creality Cloud platform on your computer or smartphone, which gives you access to an extensive library of 3D models, cloud printing and an online community.Comfort and safety of useThe printer is equipped with an air purifier that removes volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and has a built-in RFID reader for recognizing filaments. In addition, it supports Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity for fast data transfer. Also noteworthy is the 32GB internal memory, which allows for convenient management of large projects.Large working area and simple operationThe working area of 300 × 300 × 300 mm allows you to print larger items or many smaller models at the same time. What's more, the printer is ready to use almost immediately after unpacking and installing the touchscreen. Just use the short guide and automatic calibration to quickly move on to creating a variety of projects!IncludedCreality K2 Pro 3D printerCFS module ManufacturerCrealityNameK2 Pro ComboModel1202080047Working field300 × 300 × 300 mmDevice dimensions445 × 477 × 573 mmWeight23.7 kgMaximum printing speed600 mm/secMaximum acceleration20,000 mm/s²Maximum nozzle temperature300°CMaximum table temperature110°CMaximum chamber temperature60°CType of motorsStep-servo (X/Y axes and extruder)Belt tensioningManualAuxiliary fan1Air filter1Automatic levelingYesFlow calibrationYes, via AI camera on nozzleChamber camera1x 720p/30FPSRFID readerYesAudio alarmsYesTouch screen4 inchesConnectivityWi-Fi (2.4G) / Ethernet (RJ45) / USB / Creality 485 portInternal memory32 GB EMMCRated power of the hotend70 WSoftwareCreality OS / Creality Print / Creality Cloud

Seven years ago, Dr Shea O'Halloran experienced an unexpected and horrendous pain unlike anything she had ever known. It felt as if she were being tortured. Eventually the pain disappeared, but Shea never forgot. She has since devoted her life to trying to understand the cause of the rare genetic blood disorder that is slowly killing her. The answers to some of Shea's questions start to reveal themselves when she is approached by two men, who accuse her of being a vampire. Shea runs for her life and - following a feeling she can't explain - her desperate wanderings lead her to Romania. The ancient one known as Jacques Dubrinsky can explain. Seven years ago, Jacques was captured, tortured and buried alive by several humans and a Carpathian betrayer. The years of extreme pain and lack of sustenance that followed have nearly driven Jacques insane. He has been using what is left of his powers to psychically draw Shea to the region. But is Shea to be his healer or his prey?

Peter Marralwanga (1916-1987) was a leading figure in one of the great art practices of the world. He grew up in western Arnhem Land surrounded by artists painting in rock shelters and he learned to paint this way himself. The subjects of his paintings were the Djang who made his country and placed the spirits of people within it. Marralwanga's story highlights the way bark painting became important as a way of evading assimilation policies rife within Northern Territory towns. Marralwanga established an outstation at Marrkolidjban where he could teach his children how to properly care for Ancestral lands, with part of this care involving a knowledge of how to paint. As a senior person who had travelled widely in his youth, and gained extensive ceremonial knowledge, Marralwanga was highly influential among a broad group of painters. Ivan Namirrkki, a painter of note and Peter Marralwanga's son, has provided here his own account of his father's life.This book tracks Marralwanga's life of learning about country and conveys the religious meaning of numerous major works, offering outsiders a richer understanding and appreciation of Arnhem Land art. It also shows the crucial role of individuals working for the community arts cooperative Maningrida Arts and Culture in facilitating Maralwanga's rise to recognition as a major Australian and world artist.Extensively illustrated, Peter Marralwanga: Painter of the Djang of western Arnhem Land, is a study of unique knowledge and beauty.
