This printer is no longer sold new. It has been replaced by the Bambu Lab H2S.
Best for: Professional makers seeking the X1C should now consider the H2S (current flagship) or P2S (prosumer enclosed). Clearance X1C units offer the LiDAR and AI monitoring features at a reduced price.

The X1C's LiDAR sensor maps bed surface deviation and adjusts in real time — the most reliable first-layer consistency in its class.
The built-in camera with spaghetti detection pauses prints automatically when failures are detected — critical for unattended production runs.
The X1C uses a die-cast metal frame and carbon-fiber-reinforced structure for rigidity at high speeds.
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.
