Bambu Lab, established in 2020, is a manufacturer specializing in desktop 3D printers headquartered in Shenzen, China.

Most Entry Level and Hobbyist 3D printers are priced from $300 – $500, while some can be as expensive as $1500. The higher-end 3D printers, such as Enthusiast 3D printers and Professional 3D printers are priced anywhere from $1,500 – $20,000, depending on the printer's capabilities.

Parts with long length/height needs more printing time, as compared to small parts, and hence machine running cost goes high. The above factors make 3d printing expensive as compared to traditional manufacturing methods.
