Bambu Lab H2D FDM Training SOP
Training Checklist:
- Components Overview: print head, xy gantry, build tray,
- Safety: hot printheads & bed, moving components
- Job Setup:
- At the computer: CAD → export .stl → Bambu Studio OR OrcaSlicer (set up print parameters and support materials) → select “IW_H2D-1” printer → start print (make sure “Enable AMS” and “Bed Leveling” are selected)→ record in FBS
- At the printer: remove leftover supports/calibration lines → clean and dry build tray
Safety Concerns
- Both print heads and bed are heated during operation. Do not attempt to clean, remove, or adjust without allowing for adequate cool down time.
- Wait until it cools down to approximately 60 C
Common Mistakes
- Inadequate part adhesion to the bed - can cause print failure
- Can be prevented with proper bed cleaning, bed adhesion print settings, and correct build tray alignment
Safe Operating Procedures Review
- Launch Bambu Studio (green Bambu Lab logo) or OrcaSlicer
- Start a fresh plate: select File → New Project
- Ensure nozzle size and build tray is selected correctly (see Bambu Studio Software Information)
- Import your STL file onto the software: select File → Import → Import 3MF/STL/… → choose your STL file
- Set up scale, orientation, arrangement, and supports as needed
- Select the right filament and the right nozzle
- Slice plate and make reservation on FBS
- Before starting print, scrape off any leftover support and calibration lines and clean build tray with soap and water
- Align build tray in printer with the smaller tab facing the back
- Check AMS to see if there is enough filament for your print. If not enough filament, replace the spool
- Once build tray/printer is all set up, click “Print Plate” on Bambu Studio
- Select “IW_H2D-1” for the printer
- Make sure only “Bed Leveling” and “Enable AMS” is selected and start print
Dual Material Printing
- Within Bambu Slicer, follow these tutorials to slice in dual materials:
- To swap filament navigate to Filament Icon→Left Spool→Unload within the H2D display,
- Allow H2D to unload filament, follow instructions accordingly
- Once unloaded, remove the spool from the Creality filament dryer
- Respool the filament neatly and store in proper bin
- Place desired filament spool into the Creality Filament dryer
- Insert the filament through the bowden tube until it can't be inserted further
- Within the H2D display, navigate to Filament Icon → Left Spool → Load, follow instructions accordingly
Post Processing
- Remove part from print bed using your hands or a scraper (try not to touch the build tray with your bare hands)
Maintenance
- Scrape off calibration lines on the sides of the build tray
- Bed should be cleaned with soap and water and can be dried using paper towels
- DO NOT touch the surface of build tray with your bare hands. Hold build tray by the tabs
