Pre-Release of Bambu Studio on Windows(V1.0.10)
Pre-releaseThe source code of the Bambu Studio was released, and this received quite a lot of attention.
To make it easier for everyone interested to try the new Bambu Studio, we are now sharing a simple to use installer for Windows.
Please note that this is a pre-release version of Bambu Studio for Windows. It is only available for testing.
A stable release for both Windows and MacOS will be available soon.
Unfortunately, the Linux version is still not available, as we don’t have enough resources to dedicate to all operating systems at once.
Differences between the files:
As you can observe, we have three packages included and there’s a reason for that.
Bambu Studio is a stand-alone project-based open-source slicer that is compatible to all 3D printers that read standard g-code.
We are providing both the compiled package and the installer here. We use a proprietary plug-in to implement the connection and remote-control interface for different printers. Right now, only the plug-in for Bambu Lab printers is ready. In this release of Bambu Studio, you can install the plug-in by running the separate plug-in installer. Bambu Studio will support other plugins in time, but we don’t have a timeline for that yet.
- Bambu_Studio_v01.00.10_win64_20220716145347_installer.exe
This is the installation tool for Bambu Studio. - Bambu_Studio_v01.00.10_win64_20220716145347_plugin_installer.exe
This file is the plug-in installer that adds the remote-control and cloud connection functionality to the studio for the Bambu Lab X1 series. It is recommended to install the plugin right after installing the studio for Bambu Lab users. It is not necessary for any other printers. - Bambu_Studio_v01.00.10_win64_20220716145347.zip
If you don't want to use installers, and you are looking for an easy way of testing Bambu Studio, here is a standalone package which can be simply unzipped and will be ready to use.
Bambu Studio Features
- Multiple plate management will help with managing and printing a large project made from multiple pieces by splitting them into multiple plates.
- Support for arc path (G2/G3 commands) to allow smoother print results for models with curved surfaces.
- Support for STEP file format to make importing high-res files from 3D design software easier.
- Auto-arrange and Auto-orient objects
- Hybrid / Tree / Normal support types, Customized support
- Multi-material printing with various painting tools available
- Assembly & explosion view
- Granular slicing parameters at Global / Object / Part level
- Advanced cooling logic for dynamically controlling fan speed and print speed to ensure the right amount of cooling is used depending on the printing scenario.
- Auto brim generation according to mechanical analysis to avoid wasting material while also providing the best adhesion.
- Flushing transition-filament into infill/object during filament change to auto-estimate the amounts of purge needed depending on the color, and to allow the use of purging inside the model as infill.
- Remote control & monitoring (only available for the Bambu Lab X1 series for now with the plugin)
