Bambu Lab X1E Carbon 3D printer

3D Printing – Bambu Lab X1E Carbon

We run a Bambu Lab X1E Carbon 3D printer for rapid prototyping and custom parts. It delivers accurate, durable components direct from CAD, cutting lead times and cost.

  • Prints carbon-fiber reinforced materials for high strength
  • High-speed output with clean surface finish
  • Large build volume for complex geometries
  • Advanced monitoring for dimensional repeatability


Ideal for low-volume production, prototypes, and custom tooling. Combine with our machining, welding, and fabrication for end-to-end delivery.


Provide us with a CAD drawing or have us draw one for you, we will provide a quote on enquiry.

Materials We Print on the Bambu Lab X1E

Our Bambu Lab X1E Carbon printer supports a wide range of filaments, from everyday plastics to high-performance engineering composites. This flexibility allows us to deliver prototypes, functional parts, and production-ready components that meet demanding requirements.

  • Standard Plastics: PLA, PETG, PET, TPU (flexible)
  • Engineering Plastics: ABS, ASA (UV-resistant), PC (Polycarbonate), Nylon (PA, PA6, PAHT)
  • Fibre-Reinforced Composites: PLA-CF / PLA-GF, PETG-CF / PETG-GF, PET-CF / PET-GF, PC-CF / PC-GF, ABS-CF / ABS-GF, ASA-CF / ASA-GF, PPA-CF / PPA-GF, PPS / PPS-CF

3D-Printed Parts Shown

Examples of small-format production parts we print for sealing, protection, and connectors. All shown are printable in TPU, Nylon, PETG, ASA, or PC to match flexibility, heat, and chemical needs.

  • Gaskets & O-Rings: flat ring gaskets and circular O-rings for flanges and housings.
  • Bellows & Boots: ribbed strain-relief and dust boots for cables and actuators.
  • Grommets: snap-fit pass-throughs for sheet metal or plastic panels.
  • Cable Plugs & Caps: protective end caps and blanking plugs for unused ports.
  • Connector Housings: multi-pin shells, keyed inserts, and backshell covers.
  • Sealing Plugs: tapered and barbed plugs for pressure or vacuum ports.
  • Bumpers & Feet: impact-absorbing standoffs and feet for equipment.
  • Clips & Hooks: quick-release cable clips and retention hooks.
  • Mounting Fixtures: small jigs, locator blocks, and test fixtures.
  • Custom Profiles: rack sections, spacers, hex washers, and odd-geometry seals.

How to Order

Two paths. Same outcome: accurate parts, on time.

If you already have a CAD model

  1. Upload files: STEP, STL, IGES, or 3MF.
  2. Add notes: quantities, target tolerances, deadline.
  3. We run a design check and flag risks.
  4. You get a fixed quote with lead time.
  5. Approve and pay deposit.
  6. We schedule, produce, inspect, and ship or ready for collection.

If you need us to draw it

  1. Send a sketch, photos, or sample with key dimensions.
  2. We scope the work and price the CAD.
  3. We model the part and share a proof for sign-off.
  4. Minor tweaks included; major changes are re-quoted.
  5. After approval, we quote the print.
  6. Approve and pay deposit. We produce, inspect, and deliver.

What increases cost

  • Tight tolerances, thin walls, or large parts close to build limits.
  • Heavy support requirements or complex overhangs.
  • Fine layer heights, high infill, or multiple iterations.
  • Post-processing: sanding, smoothing, drilling/tapping, inserts, paint.
  • Rush lead times or small one-off orders.
  • Fixing broken files or missing dimensions.

What we need to quote fast

  • File(s) + overall size, critical dims, and any tolerance targets.
  • Quantity and latest acceptable delivery date.
  • Any special finish or post-processing required.
