Bambu Lab H2D 3D Printer Combo with AMS 2 Pro
Share on social media:
Two independent nozzles solve the problem of printing a structural material and a support material without sharing a hotend. An AMS 2 Pro solves the separate problem of switching colours and materials without manually reloading spools. The Bambu Lab H2D Combo with AMS 2 Pro puts both in one box, so dual-material printing and RFID-tagged multi-colour switching work from the first job, with no second purchase or pairing step in between.
For engineers running structural and support materials side by side, sign makers and product designers who also want the optional laser and cutting modules, and small print farms avoiding a separate AMS purchase, this combo is the complete version of the H2D rather than a starting point.
Dual independent nozzles, 350°C | AMS 2 Pro included, 4 spools | RFID auto filament recognition | 350 x 320 x 325 mm combined build volume | 1000 mm/s toolhead speed | Optional 10W/40W laser and digital cutting modules
Who the Bambu Lab H2D Combo with AMS 2 Pro is built for
Engineers running dual-material parts
A bracket with dissolvable supports or an overmoulded grip needs two materials in the same job. With independent nozzles and the AMS 2 Pro already wired in, you load a structural filament like PC or PA in one nozzle and a dedicated support filament in the other, switching spools automatically instead of manually reloading between jobs.
Sign makers and product designers
Laser engraving, digital cutting, and multi-colour 3D printing usually mean separate machines and separate material handling for each. The included AMS 2 Pro keeps colour changes automatic, and fitting the optional laser and cutting modules turns the H2D into one workstation for a printed enclosure, an engraved nameplate, and a die-cut overlay in the same project.
Small print farms and production users
Buying a printer and an AMS as separate line items adds cost and setup time across a fleet. This combo removes that step, and the AMS 2 Pro's RFID recognition sets drying and print parameters automatically, so operators are not reconfiguring settings between jobs while the dual nozzles keep material changeovers free of purge waste.
What sets the Bambu Lab H2D Combo with AMS 2 Pro apart
Two nozzles that do not have to share a job
The H2D runs two independent hardened steel nozzles, each rated to 350°C. A support filament runs in one nozzle while a structural material like PC or PA prints in the other, with no purge waste from flushing one colour to make way for the next, and support material that separates cleanly from the finished part.
An AMS 2 Pro that reads filament for you
The included AMS 2 Pro holds 4 spools and reads RFID tags to set drying temperature and print parameters automatically, no manual profile hunting between materials. Its drying system reaches 65°C with auto-rotation and electromagnetic air venting, and a brushless servo motor feeds filament 60% faster than the previous AMS generation. The buffer connects up to 4 AMS 2 Pro units and 8 AMS HT units in total, 24 filament slots across both nozzles, without the separate AMS hub the X1 and P1 series needed.
Print speeds that change how you plan your week
The H2D reaches 1000 mm/s toolhead speed with 20,000 mm/s² acceleration, and its high-flow hotends hold up reliably at a recommended 600 mm/s for demanding materials. Combined with the 65°C actively heated chamber, engineering filaments like PC and PA print without the warping that ruins parts on unheated machines.
A laser and a cutter built into the same frame
Fit the optional 10W laser module and the H2D cuts up to 5 mm of basswood plywood and engraves at up to 400 mm/s, while the 40W module cuts up to 15 mm and pushes engraving to 1000 mm/s, both using a 455 nm blue semiconductor laser. The digital cutting module adds a 45-degree, 0.35 mm blade running 50 to 600 gf of pressure across a 300 x 285 mm mat, for vinyl overlays and templates cut on the same machine that printed the part they attach to.
An AI vision system that watches the print, not just the camera feed
A 4K BirdsEye camera, a toolhead camera, and a nozzle camera with a macro lens work together for Live Spatial Alignment accurate to 0.3 mm, useful when a laser-engraved or die-cut feature has to line up with a printed base. The nozzle camera's AI tracks extrusion in real time, flagging material build-up or filament deviation before it turns into a failed print.

Materials and software
Filaments this printer handles
- PLA: around 190-220°C. Reliable first try, best for quick prototypes and low-load parts.
- PETG: around 230-250°C. AMS 2 Pro drying keeps it free of the moisture that causes stringing.
- ABS and ASA: around 250-270°C, heated chamber on throughout the print to stop corner lift.
- PC (polycarbonate): needs the full 350°C hotend and 65°C chamber, plus thorough drying beforehand.
- PA (nylon) and PPA: highly hygroscopic. RFID-tagged spools trigger the AMS 2 Pro's drying cycle automatically.
- TPU: prints reliably in either nozzle, but drop speed well below the printer's maximum.
- Carbon and glass-fibre composites: abrasive. Hardened steel nozzles are fitted as standard on both toolheads.
- Dedicated support filament: run it in the second nozzle alongside a structural material so overhangs separate cleanly instead of tearing the surface they supported.
Slicers and software
Bambu Studio is the native slicer and the only way to reach the H2D's full feature set, including dual-nozzle routing, AMS routing, the laser and digital cutting modules, and AI monitoring. OrcaSlicer, its open-source fork, supports dual-nozzle FDM printing but not the laser or cutting modules. Cura and PrusaSlicer can generate compatible G-code for basic jobs, but without Bambu's module or AMS integration.

Ordering, shipping and support
The Bambu Lab H2D Combo ships nationwide by courier from 3D Printing Store's branches in Centurion and Boksburg, with collection available from either. It is covered by Bambu Lab's manufacturer's warranty, handled locally through our service team, covering both the printer and the AMS 2 Pro. If you already own an AMS, the standalone H2D is also available, along with laser modules, digital cutting modules, and compatible filaments.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Combo with AMS 2 Pro better value than buying the H2D and AMS 2 Pro separately?
Yes, in most cases. Bundling the AMS 2 Pro with the printer works out cheaper than buying the two separately, and it arrives pre-configured with no manual pairing step. Buy the standalone H2D only if you already own a compatible AMS unit.
Can this combo print two materials and multiple colours at the same time?
Yes. The two independent nozzles handle two materials in the same job, structural and support for example, while the AMS 2 Pro feeds each nozzle from up to 4 spools, so colour or material switching within a single toolhead's job is automatic.
How long does it take to set up the H2D Combo out of the box?
Around 40 minutes for most buyers, longer than the standalone printer because the AMS 2 Pro needs positioning and its tubing connected to both nozzles. The printer arrives factory levelled, and Bambu Handy walks you through Wi-Fi setup and first-time calibration.
Do the AMS 2 Pro and the laser or cutting modules need separate maintenance?
Yes. Check the AMS 2 Pro's desiccant indicator occasionally and recharge it when it changes colour. If you add the laser module later, wipe the lens periodically since dust reduces cutting power, and the digital cutting blade wears with use and can be swapped when cuts stop coming out clean.
Does this combo come with a South African plug and local warranty support?
Both units auto-switch across 100-120V and 200-240V, so the combo runs on South Africa's 220-240V supply without a converter. Warranty claims for both are handled locally from Centurion and Boksburg, so you are not dealing with international shipping for a repair.
