Bambu Lab postpones release date of high-end 3D printers to 2025 | VoxelMatters - The heart of additive manufacturing
Bambu Lab has revised the timeline for the release date of its highly anticipated high-end 3D printer series, pushing the launch to early 2025. The decision to postpone allows the company to integrate several innovative features and ensure that the product upholds its rigorous standards of quality and performance. Bambu Lab’s new flagship printer offering was initially planned to be released in 2024.
Dr. Tao, CEO and Co-Founder of Bambu Lab, expressed confidence in the revised timeline, stating: “We’re building something that’s going to push the boundaries of what’s possible in consumer 3D printing. This extra time ensures we deliver on that promise, with a product that’s fully ready and supported worldwide.”
According to Bambu Lab, the release date delay reflects the company’s commitment to delivering a high-performance product without compromise. The additional time will be used to fine-tune both the hardware and software, ensuring that the new series meets the expectations of prosumers demanding top-tier performance. Quality remains the top priority, and Bambu Lab aims to ensure that every aspect of the product is optimized before it reaches the market.
The upcoming 3D printer series is set to sit above Bambu Lab’s current X1 Series, targeting prosumers who demand print quality, speed, and more innovative features. With this new release, Bambu Lab aims to push the boundaries of what is possible in consumer 3D printing, bringing unprecedented technological advancements to the table. Rumors also hint at a large build volume and swappable tools.
The company emphasized that the extended timeline is not solely about product development. Bambu Lab is also using the extra time to ensure global readiness, focusing on building sufficient stock, securing spare parts, and establishing robust logistics across all regions. The goal is to ensure a smooth experience for customers worldwide from the moment they receive their printers. The company experienced some unexpected and significant challenges when it had to recall the A1 printers due to a faulty heatbed cable.
A spokesperson from the company told VoxelMatters that Bambu Lab is excited about the progress being made and looks forward to sharing more details about the new series in the coming year. The company appreciates the support of its community and believes that the additional development time will result in a product that exceeds expectations. More updates will follow as the release date approaches.
