Professional and Engineering-grade 3D Printer
Why buy the X1E over the X1 Carbon?
- Longer software support timeframe than the X1 Carbon.
- Substantially more connectivity features with WPA2-Enterprise and EAP-PEAP, TLS, and TTLS support, and an RJ45 socket for wired connections.
- Far more robust air purification capabilities.
- Active Chamber Heating reduces warping and improves bonding capabilities between print layers, resulting in much greater print quality.
- Greater max nozzle temp makes it possible to print higher performance materials such as PPA-CF/GF, PPS, and PPS-CF.
Suffice it to say, if you're a small business owner, professional 3D printer, or possibly even need a printer for engineering purposes, the X1E is the right printer for you.
Enhanced And More Connection Options than the X1 Carbon
Stable Ethernet Connection, WPA2-Enterprise Authentication Wi-Fi Connection
The X1E offers the option to connect to your devices through its newly added Ethernet port, ensuring robust network communication in complex environments. Ethernet connectivity can also be used in crowded wireless signal environments. Additionally, the X1E provides WPA2-Enterprise Wi-Fi Authentication (EAP-PEAP/EAP-TLS/EAP-TTLS) and individual physical kill switches for both Wi-Fi and Ethernet, meeting stringent network security requirements.
Off-Cloud Operation
Fully Functional With LAN Only Mode
The X1E can operate independently without a connection to Bambu Cloud Service, fully functional within your local network. Customers can remotely control the X1E through LAN communication without requiring an Internet connection.
Heavy Duty Air Filtration
Effectively Filter Particulates And VOCs Generated by 3D Printing
We combined a G3 pre-filter, an H12 HEPA filter, and a high-quality coconut shell activated carbon filter to provide optimal air filtration. Enhanced filtration can effectively reduce excessive odors and particulates when printing in less ventilated environments.
Active Heating And Controlled Chamber Temp
Reduce Warping, Improve Layer Bonding
The X1E can actively heat and regulate the chamber temperature. Accurately controlled chamber temperature (up to 60°C or 140°F) improves print quality, especially for filaments prone to warping such as ABS and PC.
320 °C (608 °F) Nozzle Temp
More Heat For Higher Temperature Materials
Higher nozzle temperature make possible to print higher performance materials such as PPA-CF/GF, PPS and PPS-CF. These new materials have better dimensional stability, heat resistance and mechanical performance.
Robust High Speed CoreXY
Super Fast And Rigid Structure For Continuous High Speed Printing
The superior carbon-fiber rods in the CoreXY motion structure enable the X1E to achieve a toolhead acceleration of 20,000 mm/s² by reducing the weight of moving parts. This faster acceleration allows the X1E to maintain its maximum travel speed of 500 mm/s for longer periods, significantly reducing overall print time.
Vibration And Extrusion Compensation
Stable & Quality Prints Even At Higher Speeds
X1E can actively compensate for XY-axis vibrations and extrusion issues to ensure exceptionally smooth print quality. All measurements are fully automatic, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
AI Failure Detection
Reduce Filament Wastage And Machine Downtime
The X1E's AI algorithm can detect first-layer imperfections and spaghetti failures with the assistance of Lidar and computer vision. It then automatically pauses the print to prevent catastrophic failures.
Intelligent Filament Management
Supports Auto Filament Reload and Enables Multi-Material Printing with Support Material for Improved Surface Quality
X1E can parallel connect 4 Bambu AMS systems to print with up to 16 spools of filaments, good for printing dedicated support materials for seamless surface and printing multi-color. The AMS system also supports automatic filament reload to make sure you use all the filament on your spool before switching to a new one.
In conclusion, the Bambu Lab X1E is well-suited for professional, small business, and engineering use cases, in many ways that the X1 Carbon simply is not. For more information, please see the Specifications tab above.
