Description

 

Thanks to this simple adapter you can finally use the 5th tube of the external coil without having to always remove and reinsert the PTFE tube.

 

TO ENSURE PERFECT SLIDE OF THE THREAD I RECOMMEND ONLY USING BAMBULAB PTFE, WHICH IS WIDER THAN THE CLASSIC PTFE ON THE MARKET

Installation Notes:

  1. The tubes will force to be inserted into the holes, use pliers (without damaging the PTFE tube) to insert them into the holes.
  2. The tube holder for the AMS wires will be tightened slightly (this is to ensure a firm hold of the Y-adapter and to avoid leaks during printing.
  3. Be sure to fully insert the PTFE tubing to ensure proper thread flow.
  4. Make sure you insert the tubes well into the bowden support to avoid restrictions, once inserted the tubes will be free to slide with minimal friction.

For any doubts or changes that could improve the project, contact me and we will find the best solution! :)

Enjoy printing!

A single trick to use is to pull the thread back a little from the AMS coil which is connected to the Y and the external coil when you are not using it, this is to avoid unpleasant jamming.

Very nice add-on for external spool management.

Could you add threads for this ? Thanks!

Using it with the m6 adapter does not allow the filament to slide correctly, if you want I can add the m10 but it will be much more cumbersome than that!

Hello, Does this work similar to this? https://makerworld.com/en/models/94423#profileId-101055 Are there any benefits to doing yours rather than doing this way? The way youre doing it is the way I sort of thought it always needed to be done. That way we dont have to unload the filament from the one spool with the other method to insert the external spool filament. I think that would be a positive benefit? I would like to do the best method possible! :D

Hi, they are both valid as methods, I prefer mine because it allows you not to unload the entire spool and leaves the filament always ready for use, and to consider that today after 20 days of use the thread flows inside It made it perfect (at the beginning the imperfections inside the print gave rise to micro blocks), my advice is to try to print it in PLA before in PETG, this is because it certainly gives a better surface. :)

chce to dat dlhsie ptf a dat ams inde, dost to potom ohýba a naťahuje, ALE diel funguje dobre. o tom ziadna.

I recommend that if you want to repurchase the PTFE tubes, they must be purchased with a diameter of 3mm inside and 4mm outside, this to ensure excellent flow of the wire. :)

will this work with the .4mm nozzle ?

Certainly all the tests were carried out by printing it with a 0.4 nozzle.

needs a bit of tunning in transition portion between the tubes, filement catches. really like the ruggedness and how it attaches to the other lines. really smart design. but like i said needs a bit of tuning to help smooth transition.

It requires a few scrolling cycles, because sometimes the print isn't perfectly clean inside! but once you slide the thread for a while you will see it slide smoothly! :)

I've printed the part and it looks good. I'm not quite certain of what to do with it now. Do I cut a length of one PTFE tube to allow some tubing under the y? also, what is the use? do we put two of the ams PTFE tubes through the y inputs and leave the top spool permanently in or do we use the top spool with one ams tube?

Exactly cut 2cm of pipe below (use the one for the outer spool, and insert inside the Y the outer spool and one of the 4 ams

Very rough on the inside, might need to reprint slower
