Description

Options! Everyone loves a bit of options. There is no bigger truth to that when it comes to filament options. One problem when it comes to the AMS Lite… Not all spools work. This is where the gap filler comes in. Now granted it says Sunlu in the title, however, this would work with just about any spool that the hole is 73mm+.

And yes before you say it, I already know there are several other…, there's that word again, OPTIONS available on the market and that's OK. This one is special, at least I think so, because it is threaded. Making it easy to switch between spools when needed and the spool doesn't have to spin around it degrading the part.

Instructions for use: Holes Out! Because of the constant back and forth of the AMS, it can unscrew the inner portion(The side with the finger holes) if that part is on the inside of the spool holder where the grippers are.

No supports needed

As always let me know questions or issues and enjoy. Share it around!

these worked exactly as intended. they help many generic filament rolls for the A1. I printed 4.. never know when you'll use all four at once!

Thank you for the comment. I am curious why 4 stars, if everything works exactly as it should? Your feedback could help me improve the designs. Thanks!

I have been 3d printing for 1-2 years and had recently got this printer. I was disappointed that the sunlu spools didn’t fit on the ams but this file came it clutch. it printed perfectly and works like a charm. thanks for the file!

I'm glad I could help you out. Thank you for sharing. I do want to note that I notice in your image that the side with the holes are facing inwards. It may not matter, but I do suggest making sure they are on the outside away for the AMS. Because of the way it threads and the motion of the AMS, the part may loosen. Hasn't happened with this version of the model, but an earlier version it did once.

Glad I could help. Yes, I believe it has something to do with the gripper pads on the arms and the fact that it would be grabbing the part that threads instead of the base structure. So as it moves back and forth it could loosen it. I'm glad it did happen to me once, albeit and older version, but it made me aware of it, adjustments were made and this way I can pass on that information to make the experience as best it can be!

Fast print. Sturdy, tough, works perfect for larger-holed spools. Exactly what I needed. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing and the rating. FYI Place the finger holes facing out when loading on the AMS. Because of the way it threads the motion it rolls on the AMS could loosen the threads. It hasn't happened on this latest version of the model, but my first design it did a couple times. So for this reason just to be safe, I suggest to keep the finger holes out. Thanks again
