Overview
- Bambu Lab unveiled the H3C as a tool‑changer‑first desktop printer built around a nine‑tool Swaptek system that keeps nozzles loaded and preheated so the company says material changes take under six seconds.
- The AMS 3H chamber holds nine spools in a sealed environment and includes a drying module rated to 85°C that can run during prints to reduce moisture problems with hygroscopic and engineering filaments.
- A new FlexFeed extruder accepts 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm filament on the fly and is presented as capable of reliably extruding very soft TPU down to about 75A for mixed‑flex prints.
- Bambu Lab promotes higher raw speed and temperature range with a lighter motion platform, quoted accelerations up to 25,000 mm/s², peak tool temperatures to 350°C for high‑temp polymers, and nozzle options from 0.2–0.8 mm.
- The H3C AMS Combo is listed at US $2,499 on Bambu Lab’s store and early hands‑on testing from Creative Bloq praises the machine’s multi‑material performance while noting that broader long‑term reliability and large‑scale user data are still emerging.
