Bambu Lab Unveils the A1 Mini 3D Printer and AMS Lite

In the dynamic world of 3D printing, innovation never stops. Bambu Lab, a renowned name in the industry, has recently unveiled a game-changing duo, the A1 Mini 3D Printer and the Multicolor AMS Lite. Let's delve into the details.

Product Features

• AMS lite supported, up to 4-color printing.
• Pre-assembled, pre-tuned, pre-squared, plug-n-play.
• Active Flow Rate Compensation (Auto-calibrated Pressure Advance), precise extrusion at every corner.
• Active Motor Noise Cancellation, under 48dB in silent mode.
• Filament tangle and runout monitoring, all-rounded ensuring filament feed.
• Full-metal linear rails and rigid frame, robust quality from day one to beyond.

Active Flow Rate Compensation: The A1 Mini redefines flow control in 3D printing by incorporating a high-resolution, high-frequency eddy current sensor to monitor nozzle pressure. Bambu Lab's advanced algorithm dynamically adjusts the flow rate based on these measurements, ensuring precise extrusion.

Active Flow Rate Compensation: The A1 Mini transforms flow control in 3D printing through the integration of a cutting-edge, high-resolution eddy current sensor that continually monitors nozzle pressure. Our sophisticated algorithm adapts the flow rate in real-time, guaranteeing exact extrusion.

Plug-N-Play: The A1 Mini arrives at your doorstep fully assembled, calibrated, and squared to perfection. Setting it up for your inaugural print is a breeze and typically takes just 20 minutes.

Active Motor Noise Cancelling: The A1 Mini can fine-tune parameters to accommodate slight variations among individual drive motors, effectively mitigating undesirable motor noise.

Bed Slinger, with CoreXY Speed and Quality (High-Speed Precision): The A1 Mini boasts a robust construction with full-metal rails, a rigid frame, nozzle pressure sensor, accelerometers, a powerful MCU, and, most importantly, an advanced motion control system that seamlessly combines these elements to produce a high-quality 14-minute benchy print right out of the box, adhering to all speed benchy rules, all without the need for specialized filaments.

Sync with Bambu Studio and Bambu Handy: Take charge of your printer from afar by using Bambu Studio or Bambu Handy for remote control and monitoring. Additionally, utilize the built-in camera to capture captivating timelapse videos.
