Creality Rotatable Spool Holder Kit

As fans of the Creality 3D brand, we like to keep up to date with all of the cool new models of 3D Printers they produce, especially since each model typically brings one or two (or more) new features that either improve on quality or convenience. One such feature that we’ve been quite impressed with is the new style of Filament Spool Holder on the Creality CR-6 SE, which is rotatable to up to 90° and conveniently clips directly onto the side of aluminium extrusion, and we’re happy to let you know that we now stock these separately, both as replacement parts for the Creality CR-6 SE, but also as cool little upgrades for many other 3D Printers within the Ender Series of models.

This Creality Rotatable Spool Holder Kit is primarily designed for the Creality CR-6 SE, but due to the relatively simple but clever mounting style, it can realistically be installed onto pretty much any 3D Printer with a 40x40 extrusion. It uses what Creality are calling the “Snap-in Type Gripper” to mount into the extrusion profiles where it can be swivelled 90° to the back, with a handy rubber foot to keep it in place once you’ve got the right angle. We love this design, and feel that it’s much better than previous simpler designs, as the swivelling motion helps to maintain the perfect filament pathing you need, while also tucking out of the way or unclipping from the side when you’re storing or moving the machine.

Although Creality 3D have been working within the industry since 2014, their addition of the Creality CR-10 series is what really catapulted them to the front line of competition, as it offered substantially better quality compared to other 3D printers – while simultaneously reducing the cost and complexities of the machines.

The quality of Creality’s 3D Printers and accessories shows through in their market history, with the brand selling around 3000 printers in their first year on the market, followed by about 10,000 sales over the next year. Now, Creality easily sells around 30,000 or more 3D printers each year, with sales continuously rising as they bring out more models. These are impressive numbers when considering the fact that they entered the industry as unknown competitors, quickly rising through the ranks and now even competing with Wanhao and similar top brands.

If you are looking for excellent 3D Printers that offer affordability without compromising on quality, Creality 3D is certainly a brand that you should take note of. From the basic Creality Ender 2 all the way up to the large build volume Creality CR-10 S5, there are few other brands who are capable of offering such a refined package while still maintaining some of the most enticing prices in the industry.
