The Bambu Lab A1 Mini: The Brand’s Best Features in an Even More Affordable Package

Since its entry onto the desktop 3D printing market, Bambu Lab has been making waves with its solutions including of course the original X1 as well as the P1S and P1P 3D printers. Now the manufacturer is back with yet another solution: the Bambu Lab A1 Mini. This bed slinger has been designed to be fast and will be the cheapest among Bambu Lab’s already affordable 3D printers.

We have already told you about Bambu Lab’s solutions before. Indeed, in our most recent review we took a closer look at P1S to see if it was worth the hype (be sure to check out the article to enter the giveaway to see for yourself!). But the Bambu Lab A1 Mini is already looking a little different. For one, it is a bed slinger. For those who may not be aware, bed slingers are one of the most common forms of lower-cost desktop FDM 3D printers, and are often compared to the more conventional CoreXY technique which is widely praised for its speed, stability and ability to print even high vertical pieces.

Indeed, Bambu Lab from its first marketing put having no more bed slingers as a key goal in their journey. The A1 Mini obviously diverges from this. Though, Bambu Labs claims that this particular bed slinger will have CoreXY-speed and quality for high-speed precision. This is thanks to a number of features including a rigid frame, full-metal rails, a nozzle pressure sensor, accelomaterors, powerful MCU and an advanced motion control system. All these have poised the machine to be a highly anticipated, low-cost offering on the market.
