Flashforge Creator 4-HS professional 3D printer

Flashforge Creator 4‑HS – industrial 3D printer for composite materials

Flashforge Creator 4‑HS is a robust professional FFF 3D printer designed for industrial use and serial production of functional parts. It is based on the Creator 4 platform but is equipped with HS type extruders (High Speed / High Strength) designed for carbon and glass fibers and other high-performance technical polymers. Thanks to the large print volume of 400 × 350 × 500 mm, closed and heated print chamber 65 °C and independent dual extruders (IDEX), the Creator 4‑HS handles everything from precise functional prototypes to small series of production fixtures and end-use parts.

Main advantages for professionals

• Optimized for composites – HS extruders with max. nozzle temperature 360 °C for materials reinforced with carbon and glass fibers.
• Large industrial print volume – 400 × 350 × 500 mm allows printing of large parts or multiple smaller pieces at once.
• Independent dual extruders (IIDEX/IDEX) – mirror, duplicate, dual‑color, support modes for higher productivity and flexibility.
• Heated closed chamber up to 65 °C – significantly reduces warping for ABS, PC, PA, composites and increases dimensional accuracy.
• Heated bed up to 120–130 °C with a flexible magnetic plate – easy removal of prints and better adhesion.
• High print precision – linear guides in X/Y axes, print accuracy up to ±0.2 mm.
• Intelligent material management – automatic adjustment of extruder and chamber temperatures to the given material, filament sensor, recovery after power failure.
• Industrial integration – network connection (Wi‑Fi, Ethernet), remote monitoring via camera, compatibility with FlashPrint software and other slicers.
