PETGTougher and slightly flexible — good for functional parts, moisture-resistant
ABSHeat and impact resistant — needs enclosure to avoid warping
ASALike ABS but UV-stable — good for outdoor parts, needs enclosure
TPUFlexible and rubber-like — great for phone cases, gaskets, wheels
PANylon — strong and wear-resistant, absorbs moisture, needs dry storage

💡About the Qidi Tech Plus5
Who is it for?Makers and small businesses who need a large enclosed build volume for engineering materials at a prosumer price — particularly those printing PA-CF, ABS, and PC at scale.
Key strengths
- 320×320×300 mm build volume
An 18% larger build volume than the Plus4's 305×305×280 mm, in the same enclosed prosumer class.
- Active 65°C chamber heating
A 550 W third-generation chamber heater holds 65°C for PA, PA-CF, ABS, ASA, and PC with minimal warping across the build plate.
- 370°C bimetal hotend
Handles high-performance engineering composites including carbon- and glass-fiber reinforced filaments and PPS-CF without a separate hotend upgrade.
The Qidi Tech Plus5, released August 5, 2026, is the successor to the Plus4 and Qidi's current Plus-series printer. It has a 320×320×300 mm build volume — 18% more than the Plus4 — with a 550 W third-generation chamber heater reaching 65°C, a 370°C bimetal hotend, loadcell leveling, a three-stage air filter with H12 HEPA, and an AI camera. It is sold standalone at $749 or as a Combo with the Qidi Box multicolor system at $899.
❓FAQs
Plus5 vs Plus4 — what changed?
The Plus5 has an 18% larger build volume (320×320×300 vs 305×305×280 mm), a 550 W third-generation chamber heater (up from 400 W), loadcell leveling, H12 HEPA filtration, an AI camera, and dual-band Wi-Fi. Chamber temperature (65°C), hotend temperature (370°C), and top speed (600 mm/s) are unchanged. Qidi does not offer an upgrade kit from the Plus4.
Is the Plus5 good for PA-CF and composite filaments?
Yes — the 370°C bimetal hotend and 65°C active chamber are well-suited to PA-CF, PET-CF, and PPS-CF. Dry your filament before printing and let the chamber reach temperature before the print starts for best results.
What is the difference between the Plus5 and Q2?
The Plus5 has a larger build volume (320×320×300 mm vs 270×270×256 mm) and costs $250 more ($749 vs $499). For most users, the Q2 is the better value. The Plus5 makes sense if you specifically need the extra print area or are running high-volume production where the larger bed matters.
Does the Plus5 support multicolor printing?
Yes. The Plus5 Combo includes one Qidi Box for 4-color printing, and the printer supports up to four Boxes for up to 16 colors. A Qidi Box bought for the Plus4 needs the Qidi Box hub and signal cable to work with the Plus5.
