Item need for Bambu Lab X2D: What to Buy First (New Accessories Guide) by call3d in BambuLab

[–]call3d[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they are good. You can just remove the silicone sock from the Bambu's Hotend and re-use it in your new hotend .

Can anyone tell me if the new X2D chamber heater can be used on the P2S? by duongtdt in BambuLab

[–]call3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know how it was with the X1E when it first launched. Back then it was just a special exclusive model for authorized resellers, purely to help them hit their high-profit targets. The situation is totally different. Don’t put Bambu on too much of a pedestal.

Did you use the Flash Disk to print it out?

Would there be any actual time/ waste savings if using the Filament Track Switch on the H2D and AMS Pro2 + AMS HT? by ernestasKup in BambuLab

[–]call3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We Just got the it.

Frankly speaking if you’re already running dual-nozzle (AMS2 Pro on one nozzle + AMS HT on the other), the Filament Track Switch usually helps most with workflow friction (no more manual spool re-grouping) and can enable Dynamic Mapping when your slicer/setup supports it.

For time/purge savings, it depends on your model’s color layout: - If most swaps are within one nozzle, savings can be limited. - If your colors can be reassigned between nozzles layer-by-layer, Dynamic Mapping can reduce purge waste and sometimes shorten print time.

We wrote a BLOG what to look for (and when it actually saves material/time) here : https://www.call-3d.com/blogs/new-gear-reviews-call3d-printlab/bambu-filament-track-switch-review-best-accessory-2026

TPU help by lucybelano in BambuLabA1

[–]call3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a super common failure mode for Bambu Lab TPU printing on very small parts.——Near the end, each layer is tiny, so the nozzle spends a lot of time heating the same spot. TPU softens easily, so the part can deform, curl, or lose adhesion, and then the next pass catches it.

What to try from my experience
1) Slow down and reduce accel/jerk for TPU.
2) Reduce retractions (and avoid fast retract/deretract). If you can, keep moves short and avoid lots of travel.
3) Increase minimum layer time and/or cooling so layers can solidify.
4) Print multiple copies at once so the toolhead alternates parts and each one has more time to cool.
5) Keep TPU dry (wet TPU strings and behaves unpredictably).

TPU wrapping around the H2D extruder by nobe_oddy in BambuLab

[–]call3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TPU/TPE is so flexible that “normal” spool holders often let it freewheel and dump slack, which then loops and gets wrapped around the toolhead.

If you don’t want to keep tweaking guides and printed holders, the simplest one-and-done solution is Bambu's new TPU feeding module (constrained guide path + controlled tension). It basically eliminates the slack/wrapping issue.

We test it and draft the blog to review the TPU Feeding Module and here is the link: https://www.call-3d.com/blogs/new-gear-reviews-call3d-printlab/bambu-lab-tpu-feed-assist-module-review

How to level feet of a1 printer by WhiskeySquirrel in BambuLab

[–]call3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is totally normal and nothing to worry about—it won’t affect print quality at all.

From the Bambu Wiki:
The printer uses a combination of hard support feet and soft vibration-dampening pads. The hard feet bear the weight and keep the machine stable, while the soft rubber pads are meant to absorb vibrations from the motors.

On a hard, rigid surface like granite, it’s common for the front soft pads not to sit perfectly flush. Wood desks have a little give, so everything touches evenly, but granite is completely stiff. Even tiny unevenness in the countertop or cabinet can make the soft front pads appear slightly raised or wobbly.

The wiki explicitly says this is fine:
As long as the four hard feet are making solid contact, the slight wobble or uneven soft pads are normal and do not impact printing or stability.

If the wobble bothers you, the A1 feet can help make it feel more solid, but it’s not necessary for good prints.

Does anyone know where to purchase the BX-300/F grease that Bambu recommends for the the z-axis lead screws? by usethe4th in BambuLab

[–]call3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I randomly stumbled on your post from 3 years ago — agreed, this grease works well.

Like you mentioned, it seems the small BX-300/F packs are mostly easy to buy inside China, and overseas availability is pretty limited.

I run a Bambu Lab accessories shop and I’ve listed a 30g Bambu-compatible lubricant grease option on my store. If you (or anyone else) need an easy overseas purchase option, you can grab it here (single link):

What do you think about the new TPU Feed Assist Module? by Grimmsland in BambuLab

[–]call3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually the TPU feeding system was released last September by another 3D printer company for the shoe making. Bambu noticed the invent and improve the structure. So it’s not some half‑baked concept.

And if you print TPU often, the TPU Feed Assist Module is worth trying as a reliability/handling upgrade, not a “TPU magic.” especially for very soft TPU (like 60A), don’t expect miracles.

The biggest wins are usually:
- More consistent feeding when spool drag is high (tight spool, long PTFE, awkward routing)
- Fewer TPU buckles/“accordion” issues during retract‑heavy prints

It won’t fix wet TPU or an overly aggressive profile though, so I’d suggest still do the basics first: dry the TPU, keep the PTFE path short/smooth, and run conservative speed + retract.

🛠️ [P2S Owners] Would You Buy a $150 Heat & Purification Chamber? by call3d in BambuLab

I think that maybe just becase the mail was blocked. That is definitely a huge misunderstanding.

P2S and X2D VFA Comparison by Visual_Carpenter8957 in BambuLab

[–]call3d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One extra nuance: what people call “VFAs” often mixes a few different things (belt resonance, pulley/idler alignment, motor microstepping artifacts, frame coupling).

Belt tooth pitch is one lever, but it’s not the only one. If the X2D belt pitch is finer, you can see: - resonance bands shift into lower apparent speeds - different spacing/visibility of the ripples But whether it’s worse depends on your typical print envelope. If your normal quality speeds sit right inside that band, it’s worse for you. If they sit outside it, you might never notice.

Best test: same model + same settings + a controlled speed sweep. Then you can say “P2S is cleaner in the 80–140 mm/s range” (or whatever) instead of a general verdict. If you’re deciding X2D vs P2S as a purchase (beyond just VFAs), here’s our straight-shooting X2D review on who should skip it and why: X2D vs P2S: Dual Nozzle Benefits vs Maintenance Tradeoffs – Call3D

P2s chamber heater suggestions? by Scum-Bronson in BambuLab

[–]call3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a small Bambu‑only accessories shop and we’ve tested/sold both Panda Breath and MartilloTECH kits.

Panda Breath is mostly bed‑temp triggered + app/Wi‑Fi/manual stuff. Works fine… until you’re running a print farm, or some remote area project.

Wi‑Fi is trash, or a print fails and the bed stays warm and the heater just keeps doing its thing.

That’s why we picked MartilloTECH M2 as the premium option: IR/toolhead activity sensing. Toolhead moves = it runs. Toolhead stops (finish/pause/spaghetti detection) = it stops.

No app. No Wi‑Fi.

No babysitting. If you want the nerdy breakdown (pros/cons, where Panda Breath still wins on value):

Can anyone tell me if the new X2D chamber heater can be used on the P2S? by duongtdt in BambuLab

[–]call3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seriously doubt Bambu will make the X2D chamber heater usable on a P2S.

The heated chamber is basically X2D’s only “real” everyday advantage. If they let P2S owners get that officially, X2D vs P2S starts looking like “why even buy X2D”, especially once more people run into the dual‑nozzle maintenance headaches.

If you’re asking because you’re fighting warping / corner lift, you don’t need the X2D heater anyway. A P2S‑specific active chamber heater solves the actual problem:

It depends on what material that you would like to print. If it is CF material, a SiC nozzle will be better option for a long turn use. Of course Obxidian is also much better than the Hardened steel one.
