No wipe tower, no piles of plastic around the printer
The INDX is an extremely fast, highly efficient toolchanger system with up to eight independent toolheads that seamlessly integrates with your CORE One+ 3D printer. Each material gets its own dedicated path, so you can combine rigid and flexible parts, use easy-to-remove or dissolvable supports, switch nozzle sizes in the same print, and print multi-color models without throwing half of the spool to waste.

Multi-material goes beyond colour. It lets you build functional parts that combine properties no single filament can deliver.

Keep all the features of your CORE One+, like high-speed printing and a smart ventilation system, and give it a massive boost with this extremely fast tool-changing system. The INDX toolchanger achieves unbeatable results thanks to rapid induction heating of its nozzles. It doesn't waste time on wipe towers. Only with the INDX, you'll get beautiful, multi-material 3D prints faster than ever before - and with all the benefits only a toolchanger can provide.
We measure toolchange time from the last extrusion on one material to the first extrusion on the next, on the model itself. This avoids inflated and misleading numbers based on partial steps. The ~12 seconds per change for PLA is the time between when one nozzle leaves the printed part until the second nozzle starts printing.
Nearly all multi-material systems place a block in the corner of your print sheet where the nozzle purges excess filament. The INDX doesn't do that. You can use up to 248×205×270 mm for your prints!
Many enclosed printers require you to keep the chamber door open when printing PLA or PETG, eliminating the benefits of the closed chamber. The INDX retains the unique ventilation system, so you can keep the doors closed.
The INDX is not limited by storage options or proprietary RFID chips. You are completely free to use any spool you like, including all the materials you already know and love.

This is how multi-material should be done.
Nearly every multi-material solution on the market produces excessive plastic waste during filament changes. A cheaper machine might save you money on day one, but you'll pay the difference in wasted filament by month six.
When INDX swaps materials, it purges around 13 milligrams of plastic (0.013g) to stabilize the pressure inside the nozzle. That means no huge purge structures, no large piles of filament “poop,” and absolute minimum wasted material across long and complex prints. The INDX produces 5× less waste than the most efficient systems and 30× less than standard filament rewinding systems.
Zero attention required even during long print jobs
The advanced nozzle wiper for induction nozzles helps remove any residue left on the nozzle before printing resumes, improving cleanliness during swaps and reducing the risk of stray blobs affecting print quality. The nozzle wiper is located on a purge collector, where the nozzle deposits the micro-blob of plastic, smaller than a grain of rice.
Less than a grain of rice (13 milligrams)
The INDX Smart Head contains an induction coil - just like an induction cooktop. When it picks up a toolhead, it generates a high-frequency magnetic field that heats the nozzle from cold to printing temperature in seconds. When the tool is parked, it cools rapidly. No oozing, no stringing from idle nozzles.
Using passive tools without any electronics is a massive advantage: they are less complex and more reliable. Adding a fifth, sixth, or eighth tool means adding a nozzle and a parking dock - not another full print head. The standard nozzle is a hardened 0.4mm CHT (high flow) - the ultimate combo.
Soft materials need a gentler grip than rigid, fibre-filled ones. The INDX features a unique mechanism that adjusts the drive gear tension automatically, so you can move from TPU to rigid engineering filaments without stopping to retune the extruder.
Load four/eight filaments, install different nozzle sizes from 0.25 to 0.8. When you start a print, everything's already ready and loaded. Just pick the right tool. If you like to use different filaments and nozzles, and hate constantly swapping everything around, the INDX is the solution for you.

The INDX is available as a conversion kit - that means you need to start with a CORE One+ 3D printer. Then, follow our detailed and illustrated assembly guide that will walk you through the entire installation process, step-by-step. Everything's in the box!
