KCM SET

Nowadays, thanks to 3D printers, we have made significant progress in terms of production. So why not take our production to the next level? You've probably imagined the monotonous look of single-color prints. Why don't we find a better solution to this process, which is very difficult and tedious to paint? When producing a product, not every part has the same characteristics. While some parts need to be made from strong materials, others need to be made from flexible materials. How can we solve all these problems? A printer that can print in different colors and multiple filaments can easily solve this issue. However, we already have a 3D printer, or color printers are too expensive or not the type of machine that meets our needs. If you think like this, I would like to introduce you to a set that can make any printer you want colorful, fast, and more trouble-free. The KCM set for Klipper printers. For other printers, there is the ChromaSet and ChromaPed, which allow you to manage all your printers from a single source. In this article, we will talk about the KCM set. You can find detailed information about ChromaSet and ChromaPed here.

What is this KCM Set? Learn to 3D Print in Different Color

The KCM set is a set that makes your Klipper printers suitable for color printing quickly and easily. This set consists of four main components: the KCM module, ChromaHead, ECM, and CX-1 extruder. The KCM module can control four extruders via the Klipper Chroma Module, thus allowing your printer to print in four different colors. It can connect with ChromaHead and manage your prints easily. Have you ever witnessed your printer shaking too much, resulting in poor print quality? It allows you to add the ability to use Input Shaper in your 3D printer, which prevents vibrations caused by motor movements, resulting in smooth prints.


ChromaHead supports up to 20 colors and can be used for 3d print in different color projects. By supporting ECM entry shaper and ECM connection, it allows prints with up to 20 filaments with a total of four ECMs. The CX-1 extruder is our specially designed extruder for color printing.

KCM

If you want to turn your Klipper printer into a color printer, the first thing you need is a KCM. You can connect the KCM directly to your printer. It provides easy adaptation by working with Klipper-based pads created using Raspberry Pi and similar boards. You can also easily connect it to your ChromaHead.


You can design them according to your printer and environment. You can place it on your desk, on your printer, or anywhere your imagination allows. This is entirely up to your imagination…

ECM

Four different colors are not enough for you? We are aware of this, so we made a crazy development that allows you to use 20 different filaments in a single print. You can add 4 different filaments with one ECM module and additional extruders. You can perform this operation a total of 4 times, allowing prints with up to 20 different colors and filaments. It provides an ideal solution for multi-color/multi-material projects, enabling you to 3d print in different color seamlessly.

CX-1 Extruder

The CX-1 extruder offers strong grip and pushing power thanks to its titanium gears and dual-drive system, providing smooth filament movement. It delivers high performance with high torque and filament drive power, while the side-mounted filament release lever makes filament loading and changing extremely easy. Compatible with a wide range of printers, the CX-1 is simple and quick to integrate with different printers and profiles. The large diameter gears ensure high torque and precision, allowing the filament to be held at multiple points. The CX-1 stands out for its durability and reliability, being made of high-quality materials for long-term use. Its special gear design provides a stronger grip on the filament, pushing it steadily and quickly towards the hotend. The improved stepper motor provides three times more power, offering excellent performance and exceptional torque.
