Description

Ok here is new newest and most recently updated BambuLabs AMS PTFE adapter v2

It's highly recommended to use 3-4" of extra PTFE tubing to reduce filament rolls from jumping inside the AMS when they get lower in material

---------

In progress: (currently in design and testing phase)

  • PN4-M10 fitting - completed
  • PN4-M6 fitting - completed
  • Universal fitting - completed
  • TPU - in progress
  • Modified M6 and M10 for better AMS clearances - in progress

M10 and M6 versions are an extremely tight fit to the AMS lid

Print settings:

Materials PLA and PETG

  • Supports: None
  • Walls 3
  • Top/Bottom layers: 4+
  • Layer height: 0.1mm (highly recommended for overhangs)
  • Infill: not required
  • Brim: that's up to you

Materials TPU : Use the TPU model

  • Requires TPU calibration for cleaner overhangs (settings may VARY)
  • Supports: None
  • Walls 3
  • Top/Bottom layers: 4+
  • Layer height: 0.1mm (highly recommended for overhangs)
  • Infill: not required
  • Brim: that's up to you
  • Fitting clip is included in the file (you'll have to push the fitting through the top)

Materials ABS (currently testing)

  • Supports: None
  • Walls 3
  • Top/Bottom layers: 4+
  • Layer height: 0.1mm (highly recommended for overhangs)
  • Infill: not required
  • Brim: that's up to you
  • Scale X/Y @99%

Small tab to the bed is all that's required

 

File naming:

BL - BambuLabs

PN - ## - Pneumatic Fitting / ## is OD size (ie PN-04 is 4mm OD)

M# - thread sizing ie M6/M10/etc.

PTFE - Type of tuning to be used

EXAMPLE: v2.#.# - PN-04-M6-PTFE

  • v2.(variant).(variant version) - Pneumatic fitting - 4mm OD - 6mm thread - PTFE tubing

 

Materials required:

  • PLA, PETG, or ABS
  • PTFE 4mm OD (longer lengths off the adapters have been shown to work better with smaller reels and ones that are less than 75% full with less overall drag angles and snagging on edges of PTFE tubing)
  • PT4-M6 or M10 based on versions below

or

  • AMS feeder replacement part per feeder (we want the bottom pneumatic fitting and the screw)

or

  • Universal: 4mm OD hole for short PTFE tube or for abrasion resistant material

 

Current Working Versions (see Rev. Notes below):

Version 2.1.1 (current)

  • x1 BambuLabs AMS feeder adapter - v2.1.1

Version 2.2.2 (current)

  • PT4-M6 - v2.2.1 - ARCHIVED
  • PT4-M6 - v2.2.2

Version 2.3.2 (current)

  • PN4-M10 fitting - v2.3.1 - ARCHIVED
  • PN4-M10 fitting - v2.3.2

Version 2.4.1- v2.4.1 (current)

  • Universal fitting - v2.4.1

Version 2.5.1 (Current)

-------------

Assembly:

  • Install the adapter onto you 1st stage butter (it will be tight and you'll likely hear x2 small pops to seat it properly
  • place the collar around the pneumatic fitting and gently slide it into the back hole and press the fitting into the hole
  • place screw into hole and use an allen key to secure it
  • slide in PFTE tube until it is all the way in (its highly recommended to use 3-4" of extra PTFE tubing to reduce filament rolls from jumping inside the AMS when they get lower in material)
  • Start printing and enjoy!

Not a fan of recessed logos since the bridge look is never great. But the real issue is the low angle overhang printed without supports looks bad and interferes with the threading so it’s really hard to work out the right angle for the pc4-m10 to be screwed in without cross threading it. I’m not sure yet if I’ll be able to use these let alone want to.

Looks like way to fast printed with these its better to print outer wall in 60mm/s and using thick bridgets option.

Great design. Printed in PETG-CF Black from Bambulab. I would have prefered without the bambulab logo, I dislike having logo everywhere and I think it add some complexity. Anyway, it's the by far the best design available. Printed for E3D

I have it installed on 2 of the feeders but 2 of them are the newer version so they don’t fit.

Hello, this model seems fantastic but I'm having trouble understanding it. I'm looking for the model we see in the photo and none of them match.

Regularly pop off on retraction, even after snapping tightly as suggested and scaling down - tolerances are within .05mm on my printer.
