Bambu Lab's new H3C 3D printer features nine hot-swappable 'Swaptek' tools, each with its own built-in nozzle and dedicated filament path, making it the company's fastest multicolor printer yet. It ships with a standard 2.85mm tool for soft TPU filament used in 3D-printed shoes, alongside the option to buy a 1.75mm tool for $59, and will support add-on cutting, drawing, embossing, and foil-transfer tools in the future.
Bambu Lab has launched the H3C, a large-format 3D printer equipped with nine separate nozzles that can print different colors, materials and filament sizes simultaneously. The machine starts at $2,500 and ships with Bambu Lab's Automated Material System built in as a required component rather than an optional add-on. A CNET reviewer who has used it for several weeks reports it is large and tall but straightforward to set up with help from a second person.
Bambu Lab has unveiled the H3C, a $2,499 home 3D printer that uses a 'Swaptek' toolchanger system to switch between nine different print heads in six seconds. The printer can load nine spools of filament at once, letting users combine colors, mix rigid and flexible materials, or blend different nozzle sizes within a single print job, though it still deposits only one material at a time.
Bambu Lab has officially teased its H3C tool-changer 3D printer, confirming a launch date of November 3. The machine uses a Vortex-style rack mounted on the front of the chamber holding nine tools, and a short teaser video shows the rack dropping down with tool heads stored above the build plate.
