The CORE One+ matches Bambu CoreXY speed (600 mm/s) while keeping everything open source — firmware, hardware, slicing profiles.
Unlike Bambu's closed ecosystem, every component of the CORE One+ can be modified, repaired, or community-improved.
Existing MMU3 units and the new MMU3 for CORE One bring 5-color multicolor printing to the CoreXY platform.
Removes 99% of particulates and VOCs generated during printing. One of the strongest air filtration systems in the consumer printer category.
Nozzles snap in and out without tools or heating. Swapping between 0.25, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8mm nozzles takes seconds — ideal for classrooms and multi-user environments.
Full enclosure in a compact body that fits comfortably on a desk — unusually rare at this price point.
