our printheads instead of one: that is Dreame's main weapon in its push against Bambu Lab's dominance. At IFA in Berlin, the manufacturer unveiled the AtomForm M1 and AtomForm Glow 1, aiming to prove that home 3D printing can be as simple and predictable as starting a robot vacuum.
Four nozzles instead of a pile of waste
Traditional single-nozzle FDM printing is a constant headache when switching colors. To swap filaments, the printer repeatedly purges excess plastic into a waste tray. This turns half the spool into trash and adds hours to the build time.
"This reduces the amount of filament wasted on purging previous material and significantly cuts switching time."
Dreame's AtomForm M1 tackles this radically with four independent printheads that switch automatically. It saves both money and frustration, enabling clean combinations of rigid frameworks and soft flexible inserts in a single build without excess mess.
Turnkey hardware or a niche package
The device is built for users who want zero tinkering: an enclosed chassis, heated chamber, air filtration, auto-calibration, and a built-in monitoring camera. A 300×270×290 mm build volume leaves plenty of room for everyday prints and prototypes. Software needs are covered by the AtomForm Studio Slicer, AtomForm App, and the AtomVerse model library. The company is also offering the platform under the Mova brand as the H1, while related models will hit select regional markets under the Truver nameplate.
Alongside it, Dreame revealed the AtomForm Glow 1, a flatbed UV printer with a dual-nozzle setup for printing a white base coat and color ink simultaneously. It prints 1.5 to 6 times faster than conventional units, applying tactile relief designs up to 5 mm high on nearly any rigid substrate.
For anyone currently eyeing a single-nozzle multicolor printer, it makes sense to pause. Accessible multi-toolhead systems could finally eliminate plastic waste mountains and make true multimaterial printing practical at home.
