CR-10 SE
The CR-10 Reinvented for the High-Speed Era.
Micro-lidar hands-free leveling, Sprite direct drive, a 300°C high-flow hotend, and 500mm/s capable motion — the CR-10 SE brings the iconic open-frame CR platform fully up to speed.
Everything You Need. Nothing You Don't.
The key features that make the CR-10 SE stand out in its class.
Micro-Lidar Hands-Free Leveling
An optical laser distance sensor maps the bed surface non-contactally before every print. No probe offsets to calibrate — the lidar creates a dense compensation mesh that produces reliable first-layer adhesion across the full 220×220mm surface every time.
500mm/s High-Speed Motion
Input shaping and resonance compensation enable 500mm/s peak print speeds on the CR-10 SE's open cartesian frame. Practical production speeds of 150–250mm/s represent a genuine 3–4× throughput improvement over standard Ender-class machines.
Sprite Direct Drive Extruder
The Sprite direct drive places drive gears millimetres from the melt zone — enabling reliable TPU and flexible filament printing that was impossible on Bowden CR-10 predecessors. Direct drive also improves stringing control and extrusion consistency at high flow rates.
300°C High-Flow Hotend
The high-flow hotend sustains the volumetric extrusion rates needed at 500mm/s without under-extrusion. The 300°C ceiling unlocks ABS, ASA, and nylon printing from the CR-10 platform for the first time at standard desktop pricing.
Power Recovery & Runout Detection
A filament runout sensor pauses the print and prompts a swap the instant the spool runs empty. Power-loss recovery saves print state to flash — the printer resumes exactly where it left off after any power interruption.
Intuitive Colour Touchscreen
A clear colour touchscreen provides straightforward access to print settings, live progress monitoring, and parameter adjustment — no PC required for day-to-day operation. The familiar CR interface keeps the learning curve low for users upgrading from older CR machines.
Open Frame Accessibility
The open cartesian frame design means every component is directly accessible for maintenance, modification, and upgrades. A large and active CR community provides extensive resources, custom mods, and tested print profiles.
Multi-Material Capable
With a 300°C nozzle and direct drive extruder, the CR-10 SE handles PLA, PLA+, PETG, ABS, ASA, and TPU. The Sprite system's short filament path makes flex material printing dependable without the tuning demands of Bowden predecessors.

Common Questions
Micro-lidar leveling uses an optical laser distance sensor to map the bed surface before each print without physically touching it. It creates a dense compensation mesh for consistent first-layer adhesion, and works equally well on glass, PEI spring steel, and standard heated bed surfaces — without requiring probe-to-nozzle offset calibration.
