Plug-and-Print Automation in Under 24 Hours

When we introduced the Bambu H2D—a large-bed, high-performance printer—into our existing automated print farm, the challenge was to integrate it without downtime or complex redesigns. Using our proprietary gripping jaw changer and a modular software framework, we completed the setup and had it running continuous production in less than a day.

Problem

Scaling Print Farms Often Means Delays and Rework

Integrating a new machine into an existing automated environment typically requires time-intensive calibration, custom tooling, and software adjustments. In the case of large-bed printers like the H2D, the unique build volume and physical footprint often require changes to robotic end-effectors and layout. For print farms running at high capacity, even short interruptions can lead to production losses and workflow disruptions.

Solution

Flexible Hardware and Software Enable Rapid Integration

Thanks to our proprietary gripping jaw changer and modular gripper design, we quickly adapted our robotic toolchanger to handle the larger tray size of the H2D. No custom end-of-arm tooling was needed. On the software side, our automation framework was built with plug-and-play extensions in mind, allowing us to integrate the new printer's logic and job handling in just a few lines of configuration. The result: a fully functional 24/7 production loop in under 24 hours.

The H2D is now part of our automated farm and runs reliably in sync with the rest of our system. This integration proves the value of designing robotic infrastructure with flexibility and scalability in mind. Whether adding one machine or ten, automation should enable growth without friction. We’ll be sharing a full technical breakdown soon to help others facing similar challenges.
