Bambulab - Filament Sensor for Extruder

The filament sensors for extruders of Bambu Lab are essential components in the X1 Series and P1 Series, designed to ensure uninterrupted printing. While these sensors come pre-installed from the factory, they may require replacement over time due to issues like damaged cables, incorrect failure reports in filament unloading, or errors in the filament cutter detection. To avoid inconveniences and ensure optimal equipment performance, Bambu Lab offers these official replacements for their FDM printers to guarantee compatibility and expected performance.

Maximum Precision and Control in Every Print

The filament sensors from Bambu Lab have been designed with advanced technology to precisely detect the presence of material in the extruder. This ensures that the printer stops operating if the filament runs out, preventing print errors. Additionally, these devices constantly monitor the filament cutter lever, optimizing control and safety of the process. With this intelligent detection system, users can rely on a more efficient and autonomous printer, capable of automatically pausing the print when filament is absent. Thanks to this component, the material can be replaced without compromising the quality of the part being printed.

Filament Sensors for Bambu Lab X1 and P1 Series

The Filament Sensor - X1 Series has been exclusively designed for the X1 series from Bambu Lab, ensuring a perfect integration with these advanced printers. Meanwhile, the Filament Sensor - P1 Series is developed for the P1 series, offering the same functionality and precision for these models. Both sensors are made from high-quality materials, combining plastic and metal in a lightweight and compact structure that does not interfere with printer performance.
