Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between the 10 W and 40 W laser modules, and which one should I choose?
Answer:
Both the 10 W and 40 W modules are high-performance blue lasers capable of processing wood, rubber, metal, leather, dark acrylic, and stone. However, there are some significant differences in power, speed, and working area:
| Specification | 10 W | 40 W |
|---|---|---|
| Max. cutting thickness in basswood | 6 mm | 15 mm |
| Max. engraving speed | 400 mm/s | 1,000 mm/s |
| Working area | 310 × 270 mm | 310 × 250 mm |
| Max. processing height | 280 mm | 265 mm |
Choose 10 W if your primary tasks involve engraving and lighter cutting jobs. Choose 40 W if you desire faster processing and the ability to cut thicker materials.
2. Will the smoke and dust generated during laser processing affect the printer's precision and lifespan?
Answer:
The H2 Laser version is equipped with an efficient exhaust system, which removes the majority of smoke and dust produced during laser processing. This significantly reduces the risk of printer contamination.
During development, Bambu Lab conducted extensive tests to ensure that the impact on printer performance and precision is minimal, as long as the machine is cleaned regularly.
You can find detailed cleaning instructions in the official wiki here.
3. Are there any specific safety precautions I should be aware of when using the laser function?
Answer:
Yes. Laser processing uses high-energy lasers on potentially flammable materials. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that the machine is never left unattended while the laser function is in use.
Additionally, ensure:
- Continuous monitoring of machine operation.
- No flammable or explosive materials are present near the machine.
- Follow all safety guidelines from Bambu Lab, which can be found here.

4. Which laser modules are supported by H2S, H2C, and H2D?
Answer:
| Model | Supported Laser Power |
|---|---|
| H2S | 10 W |
| H2C | 10 W and 40 W |
| H2D | 10 W and 40 W |
Please note that H2S only supports 10 W lasers and is not compatible with the 40 W laser.
