AMS Lite PTFE Tube Quick Connector
Print Profile(2)


Description
Version 2 can be found here - https://makerworld.com/en/models/1167505
Changes in Version 2 based on feedbacks:
1) Optimise the attachment to AMS Lite - now should be easier to remove and attached to AMS even with 1 hand.
2) New springs that after pressed into the clamp, won't easily detached. (But need to press hard to go in).
3) Easier PTFE tube insertion into the clamp assembly.
4) Added basic assembly instructions in the picture.

A PTFE quick connector for your AMS Lite.
For those who connecting using PTFE tube between AMS Lite and Drybox / Dryer.
To easy the filament loading to AMS Lite, often we need to connect and disconnect PTFE adaptor on the AMS Lite (only if you are using).
Most design out there are using PC4-M10 or PC4-M6 connector and it will eventually cut the PTFE tube due to frequence of the connecting/disconnecting for filament loading/unloading.
Additionally, I have test most of the printed PTFE adaptor for AMS Lite, the single piece design tendency to give way due to design wasn't robust enough.
Here is the idea, a quick PTFE connector with a robust locking to AMS Lite can be fully printed out from your printer using PETG (PLA is possible but spring may not lasting as PETG).
----------------------------------------
There is also the quick PTFE connector for the DIY drybox/dryer.
