First-generation product — no release history to base predictions on
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 →Just released — full support runway ahead
Best for: Professional makers who want the X1C's footprint with true dual-material capability, an active heated chamber for engineering filaments, and improved filtration — without stepping up to the larger, pricier H2 series.

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.
A second Bowden-fed nozzle enables two-material prints and soluble supports without a purge tower, in the same compact 256 mm class as the X1C it replaces.
Unlike the X1C's passive chamber warming, the X2D actively heats to 65°C — enough for the bulk of engineering filaments including ABS, ASA, and nylon.
Improved filtration and a toolhead-mounted camera add safety and monitoring over the X1C's chamber camera.
