Technical Specifications:

Bambu Lab's documentation confirms these core specifications; the A1 Combo package dimensions are listed separately because the AMS Lite is included.

AMS Lite – Multi-Color Printing

The main advantage of the Combo version is the included AMS Lite.

You can load up to 4 different filaments and the printer automatically switches between them during a print. This is useful for:

• Multi-color models
• Logos and text
• Decorative prints
• Figurines
• Multi-material projects
• Support-material workflows

A1: Printer only
A1 Combo: Printer + AMS Lite

Supported Filaments

Ideal:

• PLA
• PETG
• TPU
• PVA

Bambu Lab lists ABS, ASA, PC, PA, PET and carbon/glass-fiber-reinforced polymers as not recommended for the A1.

Automatic Calibration

The A1 Combo is designed for a highly automated printing experience. It performs calibration for important parameters including bed leveling and flow-related settings, reducing the amount of manual tuning required. Bambu Lab specifically highlights full-auto calibration and active flow-rate compensation as key A1 features.

Smart Monitoring

The printer includes:

• Monitoring camera
• Timelapse
• Filament run-out detection
• Filament odometry
• Filament tangle detection
• Power-loss recovery

The camera supports up to 1080p at a low frame rate.

Applications:

• 3D prototyping
• Product development
• Engineering models
• Robotics parts
• Educational models
• Toys and figurines
• Architectural models
• Replacement parts
• DIY projects
• Multi-color decorative printing
• Small-batch production
