Just released — full support runway ahead
Best for: Professional makers who want the X1C's footprint with true dual-material capability, an active heated chamber for engineering filaments, and improved filtration — without stepping up to the larger, pricier H2 series.
Full details →First-generation product — recently released, still early days
Best for: Professional makers and small studios who need the maximum enclosed build volume in Qidi's lineup for large engineering parts, architectural models, or batch production — at a price point below the Bambu H2S.

A second Bowden-fed nozzle enables two-material prints and soluble supports without a purge tower, in the same compact 256 mm class as the X1C it replaces.
Unlike the X1C's passive chamber warming, the X2D actively heats to 65°C — enough for the bulk of engineering filaments including ABS, ASA, and nylon.
Improved filtration and a toolhead-mounted camera add safety and monitoring over the X1C's chamber camera.
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.
