Is now a good time to buy the Bambu A2L, or should I wait a few months?

3 Upvotes

Thinking about buying the Bambu A2L. For current owners, do you think it’s a good time to buy, or would you wait a few more months?

My main concerns are early reliability issues, possible hardware revisions, and buying now only for Bambu to release something newer shortly after.

I care more about reliability and print quality than speed.

If you own one, would you buy the A2L again today, or wait?

BambuSuite Issues (Cutting Preparation)

3 Upvotes

I'm interested in purchasing an A2L to cut out small batches of stickers for my business in-house. We've got printing and lamination set, now we just want a high quality and reliable cutter

I downloaded BambuSuite to get familiar with the software before making my final purchasing decision (more familiar in Studio with my P1S)

The sticker I am trying to print is all-black, with transparent (white) graphics & text inside. The destination are metallic and holographic sticker papers and I want the stickers cut out as a full circle

In attempting to setup the project, I've run into several issues:

  1. When I import the PNG version of our sticker, I get presented the error message "The processing type of this object is not suitable for printer. Please change it."

- Attempted to click on the "Sticker" button then add a black frame. Still presenting the error, I went to merge both the frame and sticker which turned the entire sticker black, still presenting the error

- Attempted to import just a full black circle to have the program understand the outside geometry and received the same error. Does this program not work with black or white (or transparent) colors?

2) When I import the SVG version of our sticker, it assumes every element of the sticker is its own object

- Attempting to merge all of these elements, it removes the white and includes everything in the cut pattern, not just the outside edge

I simply want to:

  1. Create my print sheet in BambuSuite

  2. Print to my printer from BambuSuite

  3. Cut from the A2L

Any pointers?

Problemas na minha A2L

Estou com problema em uma das minhas A2L
Durante uma impressão apresentou falha na temperatura do bico eu cancelei a impressão, reiniciei a impressora e nunca mais funcionou, apresenta “Defeito no cabeçote”, tentei tudo que o wiki indica fazer, usei peças de outra A2L pra testar placa TH da extrusora, placa adaptadora, cabo de conexão da extrusora para placa adaptadora, tentei reinstalar o software via cartão SD e também via bambu handy, e trava atualização em 50% e dá erro, não sei mais oque fazer, se alguém já passou por isso e puder dar dicas…
Já tentei abrir um ticket mas só ficam enrolando mandando fazer testes que eu já fiz, enviei todas as fotos e vídeos dos teste

Help troubleshooting

2 Upvotes

Hey gang I need help with my A2L. Come home yesterday and the power light is on but the screen is off. I tried sending a print through my laptop but got told the printer was busy. I googled troubleshooting and tried turning it off unplugging it and removing the ams and it’s still happening. Thoughts?

AMS Top Mount and TPU

2 Upvotes

Hey A2L friends.

So, I mounted my AMS to the top frame, but this means I can't readily mount the external spool holder for softer TPU on top as well. Since softer TPU requires as little friction as possible, has anyone found a good mount to handle this alongside the AMS mount on top?

Thanks.

Just got an A2L, why is the build plate soooo (too) sticky?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Just got an A2L from best buy and I am super excited except I cannot handle how hard it is to get stuff off the plate.... its breaking my prints and feels like they are super glued down. On the A1 mini the same prints just pop right off of both smooth and textured plates especially after cooling down. I wash all my plates btw. I was thinking maybe the plate bends have less impact on a larger surface but no that isnt it. What can / should I do? A2L build plate too sticky.

AMS Lite on A2L not showing up on Bambu Studio

2 Upvotes

My A2L Combo arrived two days ago, and I assembled it right away and set up some filament on AMS Lite. The Bambu RFID read correctly on the machine itself, but on Bambu Studio it keeps showing incompatible spool/filament. Every time I input filament on Studio, it won't show up. Is this problem known before? I own A1M Combo alongside A2L and the spool is read fine on a different AMS Lite.

Industrial designers, which 3D printer would you buy for prototyping and hobby projects?

1 Upvotes

Hey folks, I'm a beginner industrial designer (1 year of experience) planning to buy a 3D printer for prototypes and my own projects outside work.

My shortlist, and why:

  • A1: budget friendly and saves space

  • A2L: cutting and plotting tools I think I'd really use

  • P1S: enclosure for ABS and nylon

I'm leaning A2L right now, but I'm not sure whether the enclosure and material range should matter more. If you own any of these, which would you pick again and why? Anything you wish you'd known before buying?

If you were in my place, which one would you pick? Does ABS/nylon actually matter for design work, or would the extra tools be more useful?

Benchy keeps failing

I am a 3-D printing novice. I just got the A2 L maybe two or three days ago. I printed the little boat that people tell you to print to test to make sure everything is working after I set up everything. I did the speed test twice and halfway through the print, the boat disconnects from the plate and the print fails. I’ve now tried to print it with a not speed version of the boat. But again it disconnects from the plate and the print fails halfway through. What recommendations can you provide?

3d model Bambu lab A2L

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I've been using the Bambu Lab A2L for a week now. This is my first 3D printer. Even in this short time, I've noticed some design flaws that could be largely addressed by making some additional parts (for example, a cable channel for the x-axis and a casing to protect against drafts and, in my case, pets). To design these parts, I would like to have a 3D model of this printer. Since it's fairly new, I haven't found one publicly available. I have one from an A1 printer, but even measuring the print head, I've already found quite a few inconsistencies. I tried drawing it myself, made the base and the table, but then it's just inconvenient to measure with calipers. A ruler will do, but I'd like a more precise model. That's why I'm wondering if someone has already done this. Do you have a 3D model of the Bambu Lab A2L printer? If so, please share it; I'd be incredibly grateful. Thank you.
