Removes 99% of particulates and VOCs generated during printing. One of the strongest air filtration systems in the consumer printer category.
Nozzles snap in and out without tools or heating. Swapping between 0.25, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8mm nozzles takes seconds — ideal for classrooms and multi-user environments.
Full enclosure in a compact body that fits comfortably on a desk — unusually rare at this price point.
The Max4 offers the largest build volume in Qidi's lineup — enabling large functional parts, architectural models, and production batch runs that exceed Plus4 capacity.
The Max4's closed-loop XY adds positional feedback for improved accuracy at high speeds — a differentiating feature at this price tier that reduces dimensional errors on large prints.
Qidi's proven active chamber heating technology scaled to a 390×390 mm bed — critical for consistent ABS, ASA, PA-CF, and PPS-CF results across the full build plate.
