Bambu Lab is back with another exciting product announcement: Colorful 3D printing for everyone. They recently teased these statements on their Twitter profile:
"Bambu Lab will once again light up the entrance to the realm of 3D multi-color printing on September 20th. Stay tuned!"
"Rethink automatic flow dynamics calibration.🧐 Stay tuned for September 20th Bambu Lab new product release to witness the dawn of next generation flow control solution."
" Keep Quiet! Fast 3D printing is ongoing! Stay tuned for the September 20th Bambu Lab New Product Release to see how we can "Magically" tune down the noise."
Their homepage also features the following teaser image:
Bambu Lab is planning on making a big splash with this announcement. So far we can only speculate on some recently leaked rumors.
It appears that Bambu Lab will be releasing a new lower cost "bed-slinger" 3D printer with its own multi-color print capabilities. They are calling it the Bambu Lab A1 and its estimated to retail for around $499 USD (or less). We not too sure on whether or not this printer will actually be a bed slinger. It doesn't seem to be in Bambu's ethos to not be exceptionally innovative.
9/12/23 Update: We can confirm there will be 2 new 3D printers. Whether or not they are slightly different versions of the same printer, we have yet to see.
Confirmed: The build surface area is smaller than the current Bambu Lab printer lineup.
How do we know its called the Bambu Lab A1?
Bambu Lab officially filed for the trademark "Bambu Lab A1" on July 11th, 2023. It is registered under the category "3D Printers". Other names that have recently been trademarked include: the Bambu Lab X1E (Europe?) and the Bambu Lab X1S. It is unlikely that this release is another variation of the X1 models.
