The H2C's Vortek system swaps hotends wirelessly — no filament purging, no switching waste. Each material has its own dedicated nozzle, enabling true multi-material production including soluble support combinations.
With up to 6 active hotends and the Vortek architecture, the H2C supports 7 simultaneous material slots — the highest material count in Bambu's lineup.
At $2,399, the H2C is positioned above the H2S as Bambu's flagship professional tool-changer — targeting studios and engineers who outgrow filament-switching AMS multicolor.
The P2S enclosure maintains a more consistent chamber temperature over the P1S, reducing warping on long ABS and PA prints.
PLA through PC — the P2S handles the entire engineering filament spectrum with reliable results.
The P-series CoreXY enclosure design strikes the best balance of price, speed, and material capability in Bambu's lineup.
