โšช Bambu Lab A1 Update

We would like to let our customers know that our new and improved A1 heatbed is under production and will be shipped by air towards our global warehouses by the end of the month, according to schedule.

Once it arrives, we will contact every A1 owner who opened a ticket and chose to replace the heatbed individually, to arrange the shipping gradually according to the order of submitted tickets.

The guidance for how to perform the replacement has been completed, to help assist you with this process. Our CS team is also ready to assist with this process, should you have any questions. We greatly appreciate your patience and prompt replies to our ticket inquiries so we can send you the item and voucher in the shortest time possible.

The A1 will also be available to purchase again from our Bambu Store in April. For now, we don't have an exact date for when this will happen, but we are working around the clock to bring it back as soon as possible so everyone can enjoy it. Until that happens, our R&D team is also working on the firmware update for it, to bring further bug fixes and improvements.

Thank you for your patience in solving this problem!

๐Ÿ”น Don't miss out on the Filament Purge Contest!โœจ

    While we work on further reducing the waste generated during multi-color and multi-material prints,  we've come up with an exciting idea for our newest contest: recycling purged filament and transforming it into new designs

We would love to see various ideas for reusing and incorporating the purged filament into different new uses.

Check it out in the link below:  https://makerworld.com/en/contests/20?orderBy=hotScore#tab-Entries
New contest @Bambu MakerWorld - Join now!
๐Ÿ”น Major Update To Reduce Purge Wasteโ€”โ€”Save up to 25% ๐Ÿ‘ โค๏ธ ๐ŸŽ‰

    We're excited to introduce a significant update to the AMS aimed at reducing filament purge!

Our new "Long retraction when cut" feature can save up to 25% of filament purge volume during filament change. For now, this feature will be available as a public beta release in Bambu Studio, supporting Bambu PLA Basic and Bambu PETG Basic on X1-Carbon printers by default.

We plan to expand compatibility to include all X/P series and other filaments in future updates.

To experience this update firsthand, download the public beta version of Bambu Studio at [Reduce Purge Waste] and update your X1C printer to firmware version 1.07.03.00.  Special thanks to LeonFisherSkipper on GitHub for sharing this brilliant idea with us!
๐Ÿ”น Embracing OpenSCAD community: Introducing the Parametric Model Maker! ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐ŸŽ‰

    Parametric Model Maker is the latest addition to the MakerWorld suite of tools, now live in MakerLab! https://makerworld.com/en/makerlab/parametricModelMaker

If you're new to OpenSCAD, itโ€™s a script-based modeling tool that empowers creators to design 3D objects using code.
Unlike traditional CAD tools, OpenSCAD's parametric designs allow for dynamic adjustments of parameters pre-export, giving you full creative control.  https://github.com/openscad/openscad/

With Parametric Model Maker, you get a straightforward way to change those parameters, an instant preview of what your model will look like, and then turn OpenSCAD scripts into models you can print. Start with the community-contributed examples to get the hang of it!

Coming Soon: Parametric Model Maker will be further integrated with MakerWorld's Models very soon. Models with OpenSCAD scripts will be customizable by users with a fluid and immersive experience.

If you like making things with OpenSCAD, now is a great time to upload your designs for everyone to experience & explore!โ€‹
๐Ÿ”น Update for the A1 Heatbed Recall in Europe

    First of all, we sincerely apologize for the unexpected information provided to EU customers. However, please rest assured that regardless of the specific requirements, we will make every effort to alleviate the burden and assist A1 users throughout the process, taking responsibility for the recall.

Here is a brief explanation:
When we announced the comprehensive recall on February 4th, with a sense of responsibility towards our A1 users, we promptly initiated a voluntary recall and provided what we believed to be reasonable options for users to choose from, to avoid any risk concerns and provide the quickest solutions to everyone.

We have to admit that, at that time, we did not have enough time to carefully study the specific regulatory requirements in various regions, and we failed to provide specific instructions tailored to users in different regions.
At that time, we only mentioned in the official blog that in some countries, due to regulations, this self-replacement of the bed by the customer may not be an option.
During this optimization period, we have been dedicating our efforts to both technical improvements and testing validation of the heatbeds. Additionally, we are actively seeking legal compliance advice regarding the recall in relevant regions.

Our goal is to complete the recall in a lawful and compliant manner, ensuring the protection of users' safety and legitimate interests.
Based on the professional legal opinion and comprehensive evaluations, we have the obligation to truthfully inform European users about the inspection requirements of the machine after repair due to the requirements of the EU EN50678 standard (General procedure for verifying the effectiveness of the protective measures of electrical equipment after repair) or any applicable local equivalent standard.
In short, the EU EN50678 standard aims to ensure that the essential protective measures continue to function after a repair.
For the A1 heatbed replacement scheme, the crucial point is to ensure that the heatbed power wires, electrical wire insulation and the yellow-green ground wire, which serve as a protective measure, are correctly reconnected.
Therefore, as a corporation, it is our duty to ensure that the relevant procedures are carried out effectively.
This is also the rationale behind our request for you to take photographs.

Additionally, we would like to explain that we encourage users to take three key photos during the replacement process, of the aforementioned locations.
This will give us an opportunity to assist in confirming the correct procedure for the entire replacement process, thereby avoiding any unforeseen issues or risks in future usage.

If you are unsure whether your cable connections are correct, we are here to provide continuous assistance.

We have urgently sought out institutions with the appropriate qualifications to help everyone.

Please rest assured that all related expenses will be covered by us, and the promised new heatbed and corresponding discount code will be sent to the customers.

If you need assistance, please reply to us on the original ticket, and we will provide specific instructions.
๐Ÿ”น Show out the precision and creativity of 0.2 mm nozzle!โœจ๐Ÿคฉ

Step into our world of precision and creativity!

After investigating users' preferred nozzle sizes, we discovered that most lean towards the 0.4mm option. But hold onto your hats because we're about to highlight the incredible capabilities of the 0.2mm nozzle with our Bambu Lab printer. ๐Ÿ˜

The 0.2mm nozzle takes things to the next level, allowing for intricate structures and complex miniatures that truly showcase the precision of FDM printers.

Don't forget to showcase your prints via real photos or videos to win a share of $1800 in prizes!
