Bambu Lab's move into 3D scanning, starting with the handheld S1 due in November 2026, follows a development agreement with Scantech, the manufacturer behind the 3DeVOK scanner brand. In its 2026 half-year report, Scantech describes a January agreement with Shenzhen Tuozhu Technology, the company behind Bambu Lab, to jointly design and develop consumer 3D scanners. Scantech would manufacture and supply the devices under that agreement. The disclosure does not name the S1 or link it to an existing 3DeVOK model.
Bambu announced the S1 in October with its first official product image. The teaser shows a black body with a broad front optical window above a narrower hand grip. Its outline closely follows the label-location drawing in the scanner's FCC filing.
The FCC certified the S1 on September 22 under FCC ID 2A6J8-DS001. The grant covers a 5 GHz Wi-Fi radio. Bambu asked for the photos and user manual to stay confidential until March 2027.
A day earlier, the FCC had certified two Bambu material units under the names AMS 3H and AMS 3P. The S1 announcement does not mention them, and gives no specifications or release dates for either.

As of November 2, 2026, Bambu's S1 page still reads "November 2026, Coming soon", with no price or specifications yet.
