QIDI Box: Advanced Multi-Material Filament System for 3D Printing

The Qidi Box is a smart, sealed filament management system designed for multi-material and multi-color 3D printing. It keeps materials dry at up to 65 °C while printing, identifies spools via RFID, monitors for tangles, clogs, and run-out, and can automatically switch to a backup spool so your print keeps going. Connect multiple QIDI Box units to print in up to 16 colors, all while maintaining consistent filament quality and clean toolpaths.

Multi-Color and Multi-Material Capabilities

Expand your creative horizons with the QIDI Box's advanced multi-material extrusion technology. Supporting up to 4 filament slots per unit, you can chain up to 4 boxes for an impressive 16-material freedom, perfect for complex, full-color prints.

Benefits for Creative Projects

Imagine printing detailed models with snap-away supports or dissolvable filaments for effortless post-processing. The QIDI Box makes it simple to achieve clean, professional results without compromising on material variety, ideal for custom toys, prototypes, or artistic pieces.

Use Cases for Designers and Hobbyists

From family crafting sessions to professional design workflows, this system handles a wide range of filaments like PLA, PETG, ABS-CF, and more, allowing you to mix colors and materials seamlessly for unique outcomes.

Powerful Dual-Gear Extrusion System

Equipped with hardened steel dual gears and four 42-stepper motors, the QIDI Box ensures stable filament feeding even with challenging materials such as carbon fiber or fiberglass composites.

Enhanced Durability and Reliability

Enjoy long-lasting performance that minimizes clogs and tangles, thanks to built-in detection for filament run-out, tangles, and blockages. This means fewer interruptions and more consistent prints every time.

Applications in Advanced Printing

Perfect for engineering projects requiring high-strength parts, the dual-gear setup supports tough filaments without sacrificing precision, making it a go-to for makers building functional prototypes or durable tools.

Integrated Filament Drying and Storage

Keep your materials in optimal condition with real-time 65°C drying that works simultaneously during printing. The sealed storage design, complete with desiccant support, maintains low humidity for superior print quality.

Convenience for Continuous Workflow

No more pausing prints due to moisture issues—the QIDI Box's auto-reload feature switches spools seamlessly, reducing waste and ensuring nonstop operation for large-scale projects.

Ideal for Humid Environments

If you print in varying climates, the temperature and humidity monitoring, viewable on the screen or via QIDI Studio software, helps you maintain filament integrity for filaments like PVA or nylon that are sensitive to moisture.

Smart Features and Safety Protections

Experience hassle-free setup with NFC intelligent recognition that automatically detects and configures QIDI filaments. Comprehensive safety includes a smart PTC fuse and dual temperature sensors for real-time monitoring and auto-shutdown if anomalies occur.

User-Friendly Operation

Individual indicator lights for each filament channel provide at-a-glance status, while the manual exhaust vent and RFID support streamline your printing experience.

Safety for Home and Studio Use

Whether in a family home or busy workshop, these protections ensure safe, reliable operation, giving you peace of mind during extended print sessions.
