The Cutting Upgrade Kit from Bambu Lab expands the H2 and A2L series printers with digital cutting and drawing capabilities. The set includes a cutting module with a Fine Point blade, a pair of StrongGrip and LightGrip cutting mats, and a holder with oil-based markers for precise drawing or labeling. Within minutes, your 3D printer becomes a fully-fledged cutter for stickers, stencils, vinyl, paper or thin films - without the need to purchase a separate plotter.

Turn your 3D printer into a digital cutting machine

The module uses the same kinematics as the print head, so the motion precision matches the quality you're used to from Bambu Lab printers. After swapping the toolhead, you get a digital cutter that handles paper, vinyl film, self-adhesive materials, thin faux leather and other media. It replaces standalone machines like Cricut or Silhouette and makes the most of your H2C, H2D or A2L's potential.

Fine Point Blade for clean cuts

The package includes two Fine Point Blades capable of precise cuts in paper, vinyl and thin plastic films. The tip geometry is optimized for detailed curves and sharp corners, so the result looks professional even with fine typography or complex ornaments. Blade replacement is quick and safe thanks to the integrated holder.

Two cutting mats included

The Cutting Platform comes equipped with two mats - StrongGrip for firm materials (vinyl, thin cardboard, magnetic film) and LightGrip for delicate media such as office paper or self-adhesive film. The material adheres to the mat, runs through the cutting operation, and is easily removed without deformation after completion.

Pen Holder - drawing and labeling without swapping the toolhead

The kit includes a Pen Holder with two oil-based markers (red and black) that mounts in place of the blade. The printer then works as a precise plotter - ideal for labeling gift boxes, hand-drawn-style calligraphy, technical drawings or preparing stencils before cutting. By combining drawing and cutting in a single job, you create finished products without any manual touch-ups.

Weeding Tool for finishing

The Weeding Tool needle is used to remove waste film around cut motifs. Without it, the process would be tedious for fine designs and you'd risk damaging the cutouts. With the Weeding Tool, you peel off the excess cleanly and quickly, then transfer the design to the target surface using application tape.

Compatibility with H2C, H2D and A2L

The kit is designed for H2 series printers (H2C, H2D) and the new A2L. On the H2C combined with the Birds Eye Camera, the Laser Module is currently required for camera calibration - support for calibration without the laser module will be added in a future firmware update. If you already own the Laser Upgrade Kit, the Birds Eye Camera is included and calibration is automatic.

Easy installation following the Bambu Lab Wiki

Swapping the toolhead takes only a few minutes. The procedure is described step by step in the official Bambu Lab Wiki and supplemented by an installation video. Three BT2.6-8 screws are included in the package for mounting the module - no special tools or interference with the printer's electronics are required.

Universal tool for makers and small batches

The Cutting Upgrade Kit pushes the Bambu Lab printer from pure FDM printing toward a versatile manufacturing station. For maker spaces, small-scale production of gift items, stickers, workshop stencils or packaging prototyping, it's the fastest way to expand the capabilities of the machine you already have on your desk. We also recommend adding special cutting materials and a cleaning set for smooth operation.
