If you have heard about 3D printing at all you have likely heard of Creality, the maker of 3D printers and printing accessories that has become a favourite for newcomers and veterans in the maker space since its inception almost a decade ago in 2014.

Creality is known for its now legendary Ender Series of 3D printers that routinely tops yearly charts and listicles for best machines you can buy to either start your 3D printing journey or add to it with a dependable machine that has remained a fan favourite ever since its launch in 2018. The Ender is so popular that it has created an entire subculture that creates content for this printer series alone, making it the de facto gold standard for 3D printers.

The community adoption of not just the Ender Series but all of Creality’s products means that you will be in good company once you jump on board. One of the best things about the 3D printing scene is its community which is always there to help you from your first unboxing to super specific questions and tiny tweaks which make good printers even better.

Now in 2023, the company is stronger than ever and offering South African enthusiasts world-class products for home, school or hobby use.

Products like the Creality K1 and the Creality HALOT-MAGE are pushing the boundaries of what personal 3D printers can do. Both of these printers are breaking the norm of what people expect from 3D printers with the K1 offering immense speeds of up to 600mm/s at max speed and the HALOT-MAGE challenging the quality of the competition with its resin prints of 8K (29.7μm) resolution.

Check back to Hypertext soon where we’ll have dedicated features on each of these machines which challenge the misconceptions people may have about 3D printing when it comes to the speed and quality of what you can make.
