How Does CFS Configure Creality K2 Plus

The Creality CFS (Creality Filament System) launched for pre-sale on the Creality store on November 11 and is currently compatible only with the K2 Plus printer. This multi-color printing system supports RFID material recognition and can be expanded to up to four modules, allowing for the automatic switching of up to 16 spools of different colors or water-soluble filaments. It features multi-color printing, automatic material replenishment, and auto-feed and retract functions, offering users a more efficient and convenient printing experience.

How can you connect the CFS to the K2 Plus to achieve multi-color printing? Below is a detailed step-by-step guide, including instructions for adapting a single CFS multicolor box to the K2 Plus as well as configuring multiple CFS multicolor box for use with the K2 Plus.

CFS - Creality Filament System: $299.00 Extra 3% off on K2 Plus Combo with code K1EM 【Multi-Color Printing, Up to 16 Colors Using 4 CFS】 【Snap-away Support Enabled】 【Sensors for Advanced Intelligence】 【Auto Filament Identification| Mapping| Switch & Relay】 【Moisture-proof Filament Storage】 Prepare Tools for Configuration Here are some tools you may need to prepare before your configuration:

CFS Multicolor box Buffer 485 wire

Notes:

The longer PTFE tube (a) is used to connect the CFS and the buffer, The shorter (b) is used to connect the buffer and the K2 Plus printer. The shorter 485 cable (c) is used to connect the CFS and the buffer, The longer (d) is used to connect the CFS and the printer. Connecting a Single CFS Multi-color Box to the Creality K2 Plus 1. Install the filament buffer on the two holes reserved on the back of the printer and tighten it with two buffer screws; pay attention to the direction of the buffer, do not install it a wrong direction, and ensure that the four air pipes are facing correctly.

2. Connect the Teflon tube (longer a) on the right side of the buffer to the CFS hub pneumatic interface, where the filament will enter the buffer.

3. Connect the Teflon tube (shorter b) to the printer's pneumatic interface on the left side of the buffer, where the filament will enter the nozzle.

4. Connect the 485 cable (short line) to the port on the top of the buffer to connect the buffer

Connect CFS and buffer : Note that the elbow is inserted into the buffer position c, and the straight head is inserted intothe CFS position d;

5. Connect the 485 cable (long wire) to the port on the lower part of the backplane to connect the K2 Plus printer

Connect CFS and K2 Plus: Both ends of this line are 6-pinstraight heads, one end is inserted into the CFS position e, and the other end is inserted into the machine interface position f.

6. Multi-color filament Settings appear on the print home page, that is, the Settings are successful

Connecting Multiple CFS Multi-color Boxes to the Creality K2 Plus Note: A buffer can only support 4 CFS, that is, 16 colors

1. Insert all CFS tubes into the pneumatic interface of the buffer

2. Connect all CFS multicolor boxes with 485 cable wire.
