How to unbrick your Creality Box:
In many cases, the brick of a box is caused by a power failure or the card removal, so the box will not be turned on anymore.
Please follow the procedures below to fix the bricked Creality Box.

Ender-3 V2 3d printer got total pre-orders of 8,000 pieces within in two weeks since its release. In this July, Ender-3 V2 achieved a total sales volume of over 40,000 pieces.
Users are quite excited to seize the chance ordering on Ender-3 V2. Up to now, we’ve quite a lot of 3D print sharing in Facebook user's groups. Let’s probe into some Ender-3 V2 3d printer reviews in detail.
3D Printed Lithophane by Leif
“Did another lithophane. The thing came out perfect.” is what Leif said in his Facebook post. The result is just true to what he said.
Lithophane is a 3D print of a photo that uses the thickness of the print to show varying shades of grey when illuminated from behind. When making this Lithophane, Leif changed orientation to the front to back instead of side to side and printed with side supports.
The plain white Lithophane photo was printed 4mm thick instead of 3mm, which effectively adds some old-timey vibe to it.
Ender-6 has created such a huge craze in the 3D printing community since its release. As the first Core-XY 3D printer, Ender-6 has been confirmed to unleash 3 times faster printing speed without sacrificing print quality. During the past few weeks, the most frequently discussed topic about Ender-6 is the available date and the price tag, which will be clearly stated in this article. Besides that, it will be a comprehensive product review and review on Ender-5, Ender-6, and CR-5 Pro, helping users to get hold of the major differences.
Ender-5
Ender-5 takes a clear departure from the compact frame used for the Ender-3. The box-like printer has outer dimensions of 440 x 410 x 465 mm and builds volume of 220 x 220 x 300 mm – so better make some room on your workbench. While the X and Y-axis measurements are the same as the Ender 3, the new version provides more room for the Z-axis. Each of the axes has a dedicated stepper motor. In a quite unusual way, the Y-axis motor drives both sides of the gantry at the same time so you get an overall smoother movement. The Z-axis is mounted in the middle of the bed with a big 8-mm-rod.
Overall, the printer makes a sturdy impression. A Meanwell 350W / 24 V power supply (also to be found in the Ender 3 Pro) lets you heat the bed up to 100 degrees faster. The cable management is good – no loose ends here, so to speak. The printer runs a modified Marlin firmware.
The price of Ender-5 oscillates from $320 to $350. On Creality’s official online is providing a discounted price at $319. For wholesalers who are interested in distributed Creality products, please contact us at info@creality.com
Ender-6
Ender-6, the Core-XY machine borrows technical aspects from the popular Ender-5 family, adds extra build volume, an enclosure, and several improved components. In terms of size, the Ender 6’s build volume of 250 x 250 x 400 mm puts it right between an Ender 5 Pro (220 x 220 x 300 mm) and the CR-10 series, which starts at 300 x 300 x 400 mm. This should suffice for the majority of your daily print jobs.
Moreover, the surprising improvement that Ender-6 brings to the Ender series is acrylic plates on the four sides of the machine, which makes Ender-6 a semi-enclosed machine capable of extending the filament options. A simple mechanical bracket system holds the acrylic walls in place. The top of the machine isn’t covered as the print head is mounted here. Two front doors give you room to pluck your parts off the print bed once they’re finished. In addition, Ender-6 revamps its print bed with a Carborumdom glass platform, which is supposed to give users smoother first layers.
Ender-6 revamps with a new look— an integrated all-metal chamber body and strong Creality-blue corner connectors, making the machine appear in quite an exquisite appearance.
Furthermore, Creality provides another option for users who have requirements in printing a wider range of filaments. Ender-6 will be available in two versions, the one in open structure and the other with Acrylic plates in an enclosed structure. With Acrylic plates added on the four sides of the printer, Ender-6 will do better in preserving temperature within the print area, which will extend the filament choice from PLA to ABS, TPU, and more. Meanwhile, the transparent plates can still allow real-time monitoring on 3D printing process from 360° all around.
Differences between Ender-5 and Ender-6
The major difference between Ender-5 and Ender-6 is a mechanical arrangement. Ender-6 is utilizing a Core-XY structure, which means the machine is having a bottom-to-top moveable print bed, and utilizing two stepper motors to drive the motion in X-axis and Y-axis. The special mechanical structure makes it possible for Ender-6 to improve print speed without sacrificing print quality, and supply the exact same build volume while having smaller overall measurements.
Ender 5 model offers a majority of the same capabilities as the Pro version. Plus, with the Ender 5 Pro on the market, the stock Ender 5 is prone to be discounted. For those looking to make a bang for a buck, this might be an opportunity. Ender-6 becomes such a powerful workhorse in the Ender series as it has inherited strengths from its predecessors and taken in new breakthroughs. It shall be an utmost choice for professionals, hobbyists, beginners, and everyone else to enjoy premium-quality 3D printing right out of the box.
CR-5 Pro
CR-5 Pro is the more recent version of the basic Creality CR-5, which was launched in 2019 and also noted the company's foray right into the globe of specialist 3D printing. It is a desktop-sized consumer-friendly 3D printing device efficient in creating industrial-grade prints while staying available to both specific makers as well as small companies. The machine is actually quite attractive in design. Its light-colored frame distinguishes it significantly from many of Creality’s other machines, which tend to be black in color.
CR-5 Pro is a plug-and-play 3D printer that comes pre-assembled and is supposed to deliver ready-to-use quality prints right out of the box. It sports power-off print recovery, filament-run-out detection, and onboard operation guide. The all-metal case makes it sturdy and long-lasting.
CR-5 Pro is having an enclosed build chamber, which captures heat to reduce or eliminate warping. The build chamber is not explicitly heated, but instead collects heat generated by the print surface and the hot end.
Another feature is the general robustness of the entire system. They have built a sheet metal body that resists wobbling, and even include belts made by Gates of the USA. The result of these changes means the motion system can achieve an XY axis accuracy of 0.012mm.
The processor in the CR-5 Pro’s controller board is an ATMEGA 2560, which is capable of providing “smooth motion” and “precise voltage control” during print operations.
CR-5 Pro is designed to be a consumer-friendly machine that incorporates a number of important features that make it fit for families, schools, and individual makers. Operating in a print area of 300225380MM, it bets that CR-5 Pro will deliver industrial accuracy on your desktop.
Differences between CR-5 Pro and Ender-6
In terms of the targeting market, CR-5 Pro is designed to a semi-industrial 3D printer, confirmed to be capable of delivering industrial level accuracy on desktop; Ender-6 is a workhorse capable of delivering quality results at a 3 times faster print speed.
CR-5 Pro is a cartesian axis system machine with a print volume of 300 x 225 x 380 mm. Ender-6 is a Core-XY 3D printer with a print volume of 250 x 250 x 400mm.
Though CR-5 Pro and Ender-6 are both cubic design 3D printers, CR-5 Pro comes a pre-assemble machine, and Ender-6 comes in a semi-assembled kit which means that Ender-6 requires simple assembly before printing. Ender-6 could be a really great choice for hobbyists, and the CR-5 Pro shall be really suitable for schools and educational institutes.
