Two nozzles or one: the time per change

A two-nozzle printer can print a second material without unloading. Bambu Studio counts the switch time for each. Compare it with a filament change.

Work it out

What the presets say

5.6 s on the H2D. The H2D and H2D Pro switch nozzles in 5.6 s; the H2C and X2D in 5.

A filament change is ten times that. 52 s on the H2D: 26 to load, 26 to unload.

Single-nozzle printers have no switch. 10 of the 14 change filament for every colour.

Your printer

From BambuStudio 02.08.02.61, its own printer presets for 14 Bambu Lab printers with a 0.4 mm nozzle, each resolved through its parent presets. Fields: machine_switch_extruder_time, machine_load_filament_time, machine_unload_filament_time. With more than two materials the nozzles still change filament.
