Bambu Lab P1S vs QIDI Plus4: Compact Speed Meets Large-Scale Capability

When diving into the world of professional FDM/FFF 3D printers, the Bambu Lab P1S and the QIDI Plus4 serve distinct user needs with some overlapping core features. Both machines are prebuilt, CoreXY frame-equipped printers featuring enclosed heated chambers that ensure optimal printing conditions. Safety remains a priority with certifications like CE and FCC, and comprehensive sensors embedded in their design. However, key differentiators lie in build volume, material versatility, software ecosystem, and pricing. The Bambu Lab P1S offers extraordinary speed and multi-material flexibility in a compact footprint. At the same time, the QIDI Plus4 boasts a larger build area paired with support for ultra-high-temperature filaments and biocompatible materials. Let's explore how these printers compare across crucial specifications, including build volume, extruder temperature capabilities, material support, and the sophistication of their connectivity and software.

The Bambu Lab P1S: Speed and Technological Sophistication in a Compact Design

In the arena of fast, multi-material printing with advanced automation, the Bambu Lab P1S shines. With a compact footprint of only 15.35 inches in width and depth and a build volume just under 10 inches cubed (955.57 cm³), it is perfect for users constrained by workspace but who refuse to compromise on speed or material versatility.

One of its hallmark traits is the blazing 500 mm/s effective print speed, allowing it to churn out complex prototypes in record times, such as a mere 13 minutes for printing a Benchy. This is supported by its advanced motion system featuring linear rails and vibration compensation, which together maintain a 100% print accuracy.

Beyond speed, the P1S supports an impressive up to 16 different materials through its multi-material system, including PLA, ABS, PETG, Nylon, TPU, PA, PC, and ASA. It's a well-engineered filament dry box with automatic loading and filament runout sensors that ensure high success rates and minimal print interruptions.

From a software and connectivity standpoint, it leans into a cloud-based approach, requiring proprietary software but rewarding users with fleet management capabilities, API/SDK integrations, and remote monitoring through Wi-Fi and cloud services. The built-in camera and time-lapse recording complement the full suite of remote firmware updates and predictive maintenance alerts.

Overall, the P1S is an impressive blend of cutting-edge technology packaged in a well-thought-out and feature-rich printer, making it highly attractive for professional users who demand speed and versatility without a large footprint. The price point near $399 further sweetens its appeal.

QIDI Plus4: The Go-To Choice for Size and High-Temperature Material Enthusiasts

The QIDI Plus4 stakes its claim with a substantially larger build volume and a more robust physical presence, measuring nearly 20 inches wide and deep, with a build volume of 1585.68 cm³. This substantial size empowers users to handle large prototypes and more imposing engineering parts.

Its maximum extruder temperature is notably higher at 700°C, expanding compatibility to niche and technically demanding materials such as carbon fiber-reinforced filaments and biocompatible plastics, which many 3D printers cannot manage.

While it supports a smaller range of materials compared to the P1S and only offers single-material printing, the printer maintains solid professional performance. Its print speed, though slower at 300 mm/s, prioritizes quality with high print accuracy and a stable operating environment courtesy of its heated chamber and closed enclosure.

Connectivity is versatile with USB, Wi-Fi, and LAN options, and users can choose from popular slicing software, including Cura and PrusaSlicer, removing the constraint of proprietary tools and providing flexibility in workflow integration. It also includes a touchscreen interface and a built-in camera to monitor prints remotely.

Safety-wise, the Plus4 protects with added features like an enclosure lock and multiple safety certifications (CE, FCC, RoHS), complemented by emergency stop buttons and child lock modes. Its robust auto shutdown and fireproof build plate ensure peace of mind during extended runs.

Priced higher, around $699, the Plus4 caters particularly well to those who prioritize size and specialized high-temperature filament use over speed or multi-material versatility.

Quick Take

The Bambu Lab P1S excels with its lightning-fast print speeds, expansive multi-material capabilities, and a cloud-centric software ecosystem designed for streamlined management and advanced automation. Meanwhile, the QIDI Plus4 offers a spacious build volume and unmatched high-temperature filament handling that appeals to engineers needing large-scale prototypes and exotic materials.

Bottom Line

For those seeking a compact, fast, and highly versatile printer that integrates advanced software and multi-material handling, the Bambu Lab P1S stands out as the superior choice, sporting a lower price and cutting-edge features. Conversely, if your projects demand a larger build envelope and the ability to print with extreme-temperature filaments like carbon fiber and biocompatible plastics, the QIDI Plus4 is well worth the premium investment.

Verdict

  • Winner: Bambu Lab P1S - Offers remarkable speed, multi-material support, and modern connectivity in a compact, affordable package.
  • Runner-up: QIDI Plus4 - Ideal for users who need larger print capacity and ultra-high temperature extrusion but can trade off print speed and multi-material versatility.
