Is The A1 Worth It? Diving Into Bambu Labs Newest 3d Printer

[@Engineeringchaos]

For me I am going to get a P1S since it looks nicer, is enclosed and has the normal AMS. But the A1 is probably my new exclusive recommendation for starting out.

[@ModBotArmy]

P1S is awesome. I really like mine and if I had the choice between the two would also go that route.

[@HenrySavinon]

I have one in my closet but during these cold winter days I’ve been having many failed prints unsticking to the build plate. Seems like I need an non-textured plate with glue to combat this.

[@ianmcleod8898]

If you let the bed cool before removing print I see no need to remove the build plate. This is where it tests your patience 😆.

[@LorenzoStinsfire]

What material is used in this video? At the end he said that cooling is not a issue if you use PLA or PETG, but what material is used in the video that needs additional cooling?

[@StrifeJester]

There is a printed part out there to fix the plate registration that goes where those guides are for the other printers. I wonder if it will work for the A1.

[@pieronompleggio3910]

What do you suggest between A1 and A1 Mini? You seemed more enthusiastic in the A1 mini video 😄

[@ModBotArmy]

I think that may be because the A1 mini was the first in their A1 line so it was a lot of new things while this carry’s much of that over. Main perks of this one is 100c bed and bigger build volume. No bed tab issues on the mini but a lot of it comes down to space. The minis really won me over but for $100 difference the bigger size and two towers for z probably makes more sense for many.

[@pieronompleggio3910]

@@ModBotArmy thank you very much for the answer, now I have a Neptune 3 Pro and give me problems and I want go with a bambu because I want to print and not think about anything else. I'm very undecided between the a1 and the a1 mini, and also whether or not to get the ams which perhaps I would never use 😅

@@ModBotArmy do you mean selling the ama light? Play with bambu studio with a1 and a1 mini profile I notice that for some models the a1 mini is faster than the a1, it’s because it have less travel to make?

[@ModBotArmy]

Yeah exactly I mean to sell it locally if you end up not wanting it. Versus not getting it and decided to buy it later at $100 more. I haven’t compared profiles between the A series.

[@brianwaterman8185]

How much tweaking to your profile in your slicer did you need to do to dial in silks? Getting frustrated with the lack of profiles in cura or prussa for the Anycubic kobra neo 2 and the anycubic slicers is limited on parameters. Wondering if the A1 would be an upgrade or not.

Bambu must have sent one of these to every 3D printing KZbin channel! My feed is flooded with A1 reviews from everyone. This is the first one with any negatives about it. I recently bought an Elegoo Neptune 4, but this series bears paying attention to for my next upgrade purchase.

[@ModBotArmy]

Yeah, I have no idea how many received test units but definitely quite a few. It is odd that I notice some cooling issues with the prints since the A1 Mini is running the same toolhead and fan but I did not see this. I will have to compare the profiles, maybe they are pushing quicker speeds with the A1. The tabs is a bummer, I had this happen early on and reached out to let them know. I am hoping some sort of mod or slight revision to the bed housing is possible.

[@dan-nutu]

With the bed confirmed going up to 100°C and the nozzle up to 300°C, what is still not clear to me WRT printing high temperature filaments (ABS, ASA, PC) is why Bambu Lab are saying on their wiki/FAQ page for the A1 that "We don't recommend enclosing the A1" - any ideas? Could it be due to insufficient cooling for the electronics, or maybe issues with softening the Z axis timing belt? I am asking because I've built my own perfectly sealed enclosure (a lot of sweat went into making it) and I'd rather use that with the A1 if possible than pay for the P1S, especially since the A1 has the quick change nozzle and no "no build areas". Bambu Lab mention they don't recommend printing high temperature filaments on the A1 due to the lack of the enclosure (the A1 is therefore not able to ensure the required higher chamber temperatures and also not able to contain the toxic VOCs), but they never explain why they recommend against enclosing the A1.

[@Fuzzv]

The A1’s mother board isn’t built for high temps

[@Smedleydog1]

I still think that mounting the AMS on top of the printer will add vibration artifacts to the print. It has to with all that mass mounted that high. Input shaping can only account for so much vibration.

[@car_tar3882]

The things these a1s have makes me very exited for the x2 and p2 series

[@KennyGarland]

Based on what the P1 is to the X1 and these A1s are to the P1s, expect more corner cutting and a reduction in overall quality in upcoming models.

[@rattyboots]

@@KennyGarland Of course there is corner cutting. The P1 is 2/3 the price of the X1C, the A1 is 1/3 the price of the X1C. How could you possibly expect there not to be corner cutting? Thats like saying Addi cut corners with the A1, compared to the R8. When you cut the price, you lower the spec. The print quality per £ is the important thing and Bambu Labs have hit the mark with each series.

[@tek9058]

good bedslingers are sometimes the better option. when you print with >1.0mm nozzle and can't go super fast anyway, or when you print small objects. biggest complain i have is the space bedslingers need. my cr10s pro v2 demands ~90cm movement space, my k1 max only needs 60. you can stack them up much better

Id love to see a hueforge video with this printer ❤

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

I waited 2 years to finally buy into bambu. When they came out with the X1 I was one of the haters since it was all proprietary and not open source. I was just waiting for the bad reviews and reasons to bot buy. But those never really came aside from 1 small network security issue they had. It wasn't until last week that I actually looked into them with a neutral point of view and I was actually blown away at how cheap their parts are and just how good the machine as for their price. I then looked into long term reviews and again very few negatives. I have seen people replace their prusa print farms with these machines and put thousands of hours on them with no issues. So I pulled the trigger on an A1. Got it setup and printing tonight and wow. Coming from a sidewinder x1 to this is night and day. I had it setup and printing in 15 minutes that includes slicing my own test print in their slicer which I had never used. My only regret is not going with the P1P over the A1 but its not a big regret since the A1 was all I could afford. However if they ever release a P1P XL that works with the AMS lite I will buy it. I really hope they make their future machines work with both AMS versions.

[@eyeduart]

Hi i bought one recently and i was impressed but lately i heve been having a issue that i can not fix it and its hapening all the time. basicaly im using winkle filament and it doesnt print properly. its always clogging even though i tried to calibrate it... does anyone knows what i can do?' like someone is having this same issue like me with other filaments??

So, can dry boxes be used with this system, and have you printed using dissolvable PVA filament? What is your recommendation. I am looking to use a dessolvable for support filament.

Hello and thank you for your excellent comment, I hesitated to take the P1s , but I ordered the A1 that I have not yet received, I print only pla and I look for the quality of prints, I wonder if I did not make a mistake, Many people say it’s worse than p1s in terms of print quality, will I be able to change my A1 to P1s if I’m not satisfied? Are there any problems with bambu lab returns (I am French)? Thank you in advance for your answer, thank you again...

[@ModBotArmy]

I am not sure what the return policy is like especially outside of the US. Worst case I would think you can sell it locally for at least very close to what you purchased. Honestly if quality is your biggest want you just may need to slow down the speeds a bit. P1S has added cooling and a more rigid frame so yes you will be able to go faster and maintain quality but at the increase in cost.

[@Jbobonline]

Yep. Hue forge is cool. Do a video 🙏🏻

[@collect3d]

I see a lot of creators showing Z banding, and cooling inadequacies. Was excited for this model, but most likely going to stay away, I don't see anything special here, except ease of use. Was hoping the quality would be just as good as the X1 but it does not seem to be the case.

[@ModBotArmy]

I would definitely say print quality is better on the CoreXY printers at least if you are trying to print at these higher speeds. A more conservative profile will definitely help. The Z banding is odd, I printed a tall cube to see if I could spot it but did not see any at all. The silk filament seemed to maybe have some but I actually think it was caused by the infill pattern.

[@TheMidnightSmith]

Keep in mind these videos were made before a lot of firmware updates. The banding has been pretty much eliminated now. Yes a 5mm round 200mm tall tall rod will probably still wobble, but that's a part issue, not a printer problem.

[@LuckyDroneOK]

Excellent video, thanks! Looking to buy an A1 soon, any idea if I can upgrade and add the AMS at a later date or do I need to purchase them together?

[@ModBotArmy]

Yes ams can be purchased separately afterwards. It does cost more that way though.

[@frankcastle2814]

Don't use a metal scraper on those PEI sheets. I switched to the plastic razor blades to prevent damaging my sheets (like the metal one has).

[@ModBotArmy]

I haven’t had an issue with it but you definitely don’t want to apply force. It can glide and get under things easily but if your not careful there is risk. I may try the plastic blades just to compare.

[@LSEngraving]

i actually sharpened my scraper to be like a wide razor blade, and since then, i havent had any issues using metal on PEI. YMMV

[@11290slk]

This is one of the better reviews I've watched for this printer, however, it seems that all the reviews have "omitted" the actual speeds that they were running the test prints. Was this on purpose? Seems that would be valuable information to those watching to decide on purchasing.

[@richou5721]

he mentioned slicer defaults which for the A1 is roughly 200mm/s with 7k accel but you can go a fair bit faster without dropping quality if you dont mind adding brims (bedslinger moment)

If you want perfect quality at speed you still need to buy the non- bed slinger versions IMO. And I'd rather have an enclosed AMS to help prevent moisture which makes a big difference to quality.

I know the A1 is a good price but personally I'd rather save up for one of the other versions from Bambu.

So far all the PLA i use in my A1 is not from Bambu and it works fine. you can use generic PLA or create customized settings in the slicer for certain makers, like Inland or others.

[@TheFighterX4]

What if you have mixed color Pla? Sparkle, rainbow, glow one?

[@normang4]

@@TheFighterX4 If you go into Bambu Studio, and select to add a custom filament, you can chose from a reasonable list of vendors, though no where near all of them that are out there probably. Then you then chose the type of filament ie, PLA,PETG, TPU, ABS, more etc. then you define whether its basic, matte, Silk, Marble etc, then you can chose settings from an existing preset or generic for standard settings. So far for most any filament I've used Generic PLA, with other defining factors has worked fine. Bambu Filaments if using the AMS, reads information somehow from the reel to setup up what it is, color, and other settings automatically. When you switch colors on the AMS, it purges of the nozzle of the previous color before resuming printing. This many consider to be wasteful, however I like being able to have color models, not a single color for some models not all., However when doing color, if I can do it with a reasonable number of color changes during the print. I will, and Bambu Studio tells you all these details. Considering how much filament I've tossed even before color., and perhaps many others as well from failed prints, waste all a matter of perspective. It would be nice if some filament companies could setup a recycling program to recover filament from failed prints and using color. Not aware of any yet..
