This printer is no longer sold new. It has been replaced by the Bambu Lab H2S.
Best for: Professional makers and small studios who need dual-material printing for engineering parts with soluble supports — or true dual-color without purge waste.
Full details →First-generation product — recently released, still early days
Best for: Professional studios and engineers who need true multi-material production with dedicated nozzles per material — enabling soluble supports, multi-material composites, and high-throughput professional output without purge waste.

The H2D prints two materials simultaneously from two nozzles. This eliminates purge tower waste and enables true dual-material prints including PVA/PLA soluble support combinations.
350×320×325 mm gives more print area than the standard 256 mm Bambu models — suited for larger professional parts.
The H2D supports a wide range of engineering filaments including PA-CF, PETG-CF, and PC with its enclosed chamber.
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.
