With the Swapmod Kit from Swap Systems, you can make your Bambu Lab A1 Mini 3D printer even more powerful! This add-on enables fully automatic printing of multiple plates in succession, making your workflow more efficient and flexible. Your printer can:
✔ Print multiple plates from a single project
✔ Combine different projects
✔ Print the same plate multiple times in succession
It’s easy to use: Drag your .gcode.3mf files into the Swaplist app, set the print order and start the process. The printer changes plates automatically, so you no longer need to intervene manually.
✅ Extended printing capacity
Print large projects without constantly changing plates and plan your jobs more flexibly.
✅ Efficient material management
Reduce material waste by using just one material per plate – less changeover time, less waste!
✅ Easy expandability
Start with 2–3 plates and expand your system as needed to up to 10 or more.
✅ Greater reliability
A failed print no longer ruins the entire build plate – problematic parts can be printed separately.
✅ Remote control
Change plates remotely and restart printing directly via the slicer or an app.
✅ Perfect for scaling & automation
Optimise your production and reduce manual intervention – ideal for hobbyists and professionals.
The Swapmod Kit is supplied as a do-it-yourself (DIY) kit. All necessary components are included – you simply print the remaining parts yourself using your Bambu Lab A1 Mini.
