Designed for Speed
|
Advanced materials for advanced projects.The Bambu Lab X1 Carbon features enhanced cooling, a hardened steel nozzle, and reinforced drive gears, enabling reliable printing with a broad range of materials, such as PA, PC, PET, and TPU while excelling with carbon-fiber and glass-fiber reinforced polymers. |
 |
 |
Multi-Colour 3D PrintingWith the Bambu Lab Automatic Material System (AMS), you can seamlessly print using multiple colours and material types without the hassle of manual changes. |
Vibration Compensation & Extrusion CompensationThe active vibration compensation (XY) algorithm, combined with precise extrusion compensation, ensures smoother motion and consistently high-quality prints. |
 |
 |
Dual Auto Bed LevelingThe Dual Auto Bed Leveling system enhances reliability by using both lidar and analog force sensors, which cross-verify each other to provide an added layer of precision and redundancy. |
Al inspected first layerNo more babysitting your first layer—the X1C's lidar sensor handles the checks for you, so you can focus on whatever you’d rather be doing. |
 |
 |
Spaghetti detectionBuilt-in AI monitoring detects pesky “spaghetti monsters,” letting you rest easy knowing your prints are safe. |
Sync with Bambu Studio & Bambu HandyTake full control of your X1 Carbon wherever you are—use Bambu Studio or the Bambu Handy app to monitor prints remotely, record timelapse videos with the onboard camera, and explore new projects from the MakerWorld library. |

What is the recommended ambient temperature and humidity for the X1 series printer?
The recommended ambient temperature of the P1 series printer is 10℃ - 30℃ (50°F - 86°F). The recommended humidity level is under 85%.
Is the heated chamber of the X1 series actively heated?
No. The chamber temperature increases based on the temperature set for the heated bed and cannot be precisely controlled.
Is the filament buffer needed for single filament printing? (For X1 or P1 Series)
When printing with a single spool of filament, the buffer is not needed, since the filament spool itself can be considered as a 'buffer'.
What kind of maintenance is expected for the X1/X1C?
The X1/X1C doesn't need a lot of maintenance. Here's a link to a complete list of parts that can be consulted in this link.
What is the function of the X1 Series's buttons on top?
The left button is used to wake up the screen, and the second button is used to stop a print.
Are other slicers compatible with the X1/X1C?
Yes, third-party slicers are supported, but they are not compatible with some functions of the printer like First Layer Inspection and AMS. We strongly recommend using Bambu Studio for the best print results.
Is the LED light needed for the AI stuff to work?
Yes, vision inspection needs to be performed with LED light, but its accuracy is affected by factors such as ambient light, algorithm accuracy, sensitivity settings, etc., making it difficult to achieve 100% accurate identification. We will continue to improve the precision of our algorithms.
Can I upgrade my X1C to the X1E? If so, what accessories will I need to purchase?
Unfortunately, the X1C can not be upgraded to X1E using accessories.
The X1C printers do not support the installation of the chamber heating module and the wired network module. Additionally, the hotend assembly of the X1E, including the heater, NTC, and thermal grease, is not compatible with the X1C.
