This AI 3D Printer Can Now Design Your Parts, Too. I Have Questions.

The new Aurora 3D printer can turn a photo, a few words, or a voice command into a finished part without CAD or slicing software. I'm struggling to believe it. I'm also rather desperate to see it.

Mix It Up
The H3C isn't the only Bambu Lab news for today.

The new printer brings nozzle mixing – using multiple sizes of nozzle in a print – with it, but soon all of the company's multi-nozzle machines will be able to do it. Starting later November, the H2D will be able to do it. In February and March 2027, the H2C and X2D will follow (including for printers using the filament track switch).

Well, Color Us Impressed
The H3C: nine heads, one seriously impressed editor.

We've had the new Bambu Lab H3C toolchanger in the All3DP Lab for weeks, and keeping quiet about it hasn't been easy. Now that it's officially launched, the gag order is off and the gushing is on. Our senior editor Matt can finally tell you why there's plenty to get excited about, especially about the H3C's ability to print flexible filament. Who needs shoe shops when you can print your own kicks? Stay tuned for our full hands-on review on All3DP. Spoiler: we like this one. A lot.

Weekend Poll
Is your 3D printer an only child?

Bambu Lab's R1 laser cutter and Elegoo's M1 Ultra scanner are the latest signs that 3D printer brands want to pack out your workbench with more than just 3D printers. Lasers, scanners, UV printer and CNC machines increasingly come from, or are planned to come from, the same companies that make our printers.

How far have you followed them? Has your printer picked up some company along the ways, or is it still the only maker machine in the house?

Some Assembly Required
We gave our lab 3D printers an actual job. Things escalated.

For once, All3DP's lab printers aren't being put through their paces for reviews, tortured with benchmark prints, or feeding our increasingly concerning fidget spinner addiction. Instead, our senior editor Matt has commandeered nearly every printer in the lab for one gloriously oversized mission: creating a nearly three-meter-wide 3D printed assembly for our Craftcloud by All3DP booth at Formnext. Because why start small when you have an entire room full of 3D printers and questionable impulse control?

See it for yourself at Formnext in Frankfurt, Nov. 17–20, Hall 12.1, Booth E66.

A Sneaky Little Leak
New Bambu Lab P3C: Seven heads, zero details.

What do we know about Bambu Lab's next 3D printer? Not much, but the company has apparently left us a few breadcrumbs. Photos from certification filings reveal the P3C, a seemingly compact, enclosed P-series 3D printer with what looks like a seven-head tool-changing system. Think P2S, but with a serious case of multiple personalities. Pricing and launch timing remain a mystery. Seven heads are better than one, but none of them is talking.

How the Turntables
Creality modders and tinkerers take note.

Channeling the hackability of the original Ender 3, Creality has started to release STEP files and, eventually, code for its SparkX i7. The great irony? It's using Prusa's tactically developed, anti-clone Open Community License – a license developed to fence Prusa's work off from the companies it complains exploited it – to do it. You can adapt, change, and use the files all you want – just don't try to sell what you build. Creality is, of course, within its rights to use the license. It doing so gives weight to the source-available hardware framework Prusa is championing.
