Four colors might sound modest—but it's smarter than it looks. Based on extensive testing and real-world use, 4-color setups like AD5X already cover most of common multicolor print needs, from character models to educational tools. It strikes the best balance between speed, color expression, and system stability. Four colors, endless creativity.
Integrated IFS, Built Right In
Integrated IFS, Built Right In
AD5X includes the Intelligent Filament System (IFS) as a standard feature—fully integrated into the printer with no need for an external feeder box or add-on. IFS automates filament switching and handling, making multicolor printing smooth, reliable, and cost-efficient, so you can focus on fun stuff.
Stable Core-XY Motion System
Stable Core-XY Motion System
The AD5X's Core-XY structure keeps things steady, even when you're printing tall models, running long jobs, or pushing higher speeds. No weird shifts, no leaning towers, no stringy spaghetti monsters—just clean, reliable layers from bottom to top.
Real Multi-Color, Truly Under Control
Easy to use
Automatic Filament Switching
When printing a single-color model, once one spool is used up, it automatically switches to the next spool. Print with peace of mind.
Quick-Release Nozzle
The nozzle design has been adjusted from the 5M series, ensuring performance while reducing costs by 30%.
Unbox and Assemble in Three Easy Steps
Simply install the screen, filament holder, and multicolor printing module. All is done.
