Bambu Lab
Bambu Lab is an Additive Manufacturing company founded in 2020 and based in Shenzhen, China.
Bambu Lab was founded in 2020 in Shenzhen, China, by a team of former DJI engineers led by CEO Ye Tao, who previously headed DJI's consumer drone department. It also has offices in Shanghai and Austin, Texas. Its debut printer, the X1, launched in May 2022 after a Kickstarter campaign, and the lineup spans the X, P, H and A series of enclosed and open-frame printers with multi-color material systems. The company earns revenue from printer hardware, accessories and filament sold through its own online stores, and runs the free MakerWorld model-sharing platform and the open-source Bambu Studio slicer. On Sept. 22, 2026 it launched the R1, a 55-watt CO2 laser cutter that takes the company beyond 3D printers. Chinese business press reported revenue of about 6 billion yuan and 1.2 million printers shipped in 2024, and revenue of about 10 billion yuan in 2025. Bambu Lab is privately held, and IDG Capital is among its investors.
Bambu Lab sells desktop printers in volume, with 1.2 million units shipped in 2024 and about 29% of the global consumer 3D-printing market that year, according to 36Kr. Its machines serve print farms, schools and small producers as well as hobbyists; the A2L, released June 1, 2026, is aimed partly at print farms. The X2D, announced April 14, 2026 at $649 in the US, prints ABS, ASA and nylon in a heated chamber at a desktop price.
