Description
PioCreat G12
A 1200 × 1000 × 1000 mm build volume, a 450 °C screw extruder and up to 3 kg/h of output, fed from a 25-litre hopper of 2–5 mm pellets.
A pellet 3D printer (FGF, fused granular fabrication) melts plastic granules in a heated screw extruder instead of pushing filament through a hot end. Pellets cost far less per kilo than filament and a screw delivers much higher flow, which makes large parts, moulds and recycled-plastic printing practical.
The PioCreat G12 is PioCreat's largest FGF printer: an enclosed industrial cabinet with a 1,200-litre build volume, a zoned heated bed up to 130 °C and 120-point laser levelling. It is built for moulds, sculptures, architectural components, furniture and other large parts. PioCreat (Shenzhen PioCreat 3D Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, China; founded 2015; a wholly-owned subsidiary of Creality) designs and manufactures the G12. Eolas Prints, in Reocín, Cantabria (Spain), supplies the machine and the pellets it prints from one place: PLA, PETG, ABS and TPU pellets in the same grades Eolas uses to manufacture its own filament, plus recycled rPET pellets.
What makes the G12 different
1,200-litre build volume
1200 × 1000 × 1000 mm for full-size moulds, sculptures, display props, furniture and architectural parts in one piece.
450 °C segmented screw extruder
Upper zone up to 440 °C, lower zone up to 450 °C. A retractable printhead keeps extrusion steady and helps prevent nozzle clogging.
Up to 3 kg/h
High-output extrusion with nozzles up to 4.0 mm for large, thick-walled parts.
Zoned heated bed
Heating zones switch on only where the model sits, up to 130 °C, which saves energy on smaller jobs. The flexible build plate releases parts by bending.
120-point laser levelling
Non-contact laser measurement maps the bed before every print without touching the model area.
Monitoring built in
Hopper level sensors raise a run-out alarm, the transparent 25 L hopper shows what is left, and a magnetic camera records time-lapses.

Source: PioCreat's G12 product page and user manual (V6.2, January 2026). Where they differ we use the official manual or spec table: the manual lists 1.2–4.0 mm nozzles and 0.6–2.0 mm layers (the web page says 0.8–4.0 mm and 0.2–2.0 mm), and the spec table gives 90 mm/s (the page highlights say 220 mm/s). Reseller figures for weight (850/1050 kg), a 150 °C bed and a 60 °C heated chamber are not confirmed by PioCreat.
Materials and Eolas pellets
PioCreat lists PLA, PC, ABS, PETG, PA-CF, PETG-GF, PP, TPU, ABS-CF and PC-CF for the G12, and the manual adds PVC, PA, HDPE, EVA, PC+ABS, fibre-filled PA and WPC (wood-plastic composite), all as 2–5 mm pellets.
Eolas Prints supplies PLA, PETG, ABS and TPU pellets, the same grades it uses to manufacture its own filament, plus recycled rPET pellets, all in 1 kg bags and all within PioCreat's 2–5 mm pellet range. For production volumes, ask us about larger quantities:
| Eolas pellets | Pellet size (Eolas spec) | Price per kg | Status on this printer |
|---|---|---|---|
| PLA pellets | 3.1–3.6 mm | €10.99 | Material listed by PioCreat |
| PETG pellets | 2–3.5 mm | €18.90 | Material listed by PioCreat |
| ABS pellets | 2.8–3.2 mm | €10.99 | Material listed by PioCreat |
| TPU pellets (93A) | 2.7–3.2 mm | €18.90 | Material listed by PioCreat |
| rPET pellets (recycled) | 2–3.5 mm | €15.99 | PET not named by PioCreat: PETG-class, test first |
PLA, PETG, ABS and TPU pellets are virgin material; rPET pellets are recycled from post-consumer PET bottles. Moisture-sensitive materials such as PETG, TPU and PET print best dried. Browse all Eolas pellets.
Pellets vs filament: cost per kg
At up to 3 kg an hour, a G12 can use hundreds of kilos a month, so price per kilo decides running cost. Using Eolas Prints' own prices:
| Material | Eolas filament | Eolas pellets | Pellets cost less by |
|---|---|---|---|
| PLA | €19.90/kg | €10.99/kg | 45% |
| ABS | €22.11/kg (€19.90 per 900 g) | €10.99/kg | 50% |
| TPU 93A | €39.99/kg | €18.90/kg | 53% |
| PETG | €25.50/kg | €18.90/kg | 26% |
| rPET (recycled) | – | €15.99/kg | 15% below virgin PETG pellets |
Example: a G12 printing 500 kg of PLA a month from pellets instead of filament saves about €4,455 a month in material, which matches the machine's price in about 9 months. Treat this as an illustration: it ignores purging, drying and failed prints.

Questions about the PioCreat G12
How big can the PioCreat G12 print?
Up to 1200 × 1000 × 1000 mm, a 1,200-litre build volume, in one piece.
What is the G12's maximum output?
Up to 3 kg/h of extruded plastic, according to PioCreat. The spec table gives a maximum print speed of 90 mm/s.
What power supply does the G12 need?
It is rated at 7000 W on single-phase AC 220 V, with an AC 110 V version for the US. The manual calls for a 3-core 4 mm² cable wired to the circuit breaker and a compressed-air supply above 0.6 MPa.
How is a G12 delivered and installed?
As a complete machine on pallet freight; PioCreat gives 750 kg net and 1285 kg gross, and the machine has lifting rings for unloading. Outside the EU we ship DAP, so the recipient pays duties and import taxes. Installation and training are quoted per project.
What nozzle sizes does the G12 use?
The manual lists 1.2–4.0 mm, and the G12 ships with 1.2, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 mm nozzles. Larger nozzles give more output and thicker layers; smaller ones give finer detail.
