Description

Build Plate Storage Module

A simple storage unit to fit under an AMS module to hold up to 5 build plates.

Printing…

There are no requirements for supports to print this. Printed in PLA, it is strong enough to hold a fully loaded AMS module.

I've added profiles for each part on a separate build plate, each with a 5mm brim to reduce any chance of warping. I recommend turning off the AUX fan if you have one fitted.

Profile settings…

0.2mm layer height
2 walls
10% gyroid infill
no supports
5mm brim

Hardware required…

To assemble securely you will need 16 x M3 threaded brass nut inserts and 16 x M3x10 button head screws.

Alternatively you could just fix together with glue.

Assembly…

Insert the 16 x M3 brass inserts into all 4mm holes - heated and melted into the holes with a soldering iron or something similar.
Slide the main inner and outer side pieces together using the ‘jigsaw’ type slots for both the left and right sides
Secure these inner and outer parts together with 2 x M3x10 button head screws each side
Slot in both bottom support bars to the side pieces and secure with 4 x M3 screws
Fix the back slotted part to the bottom support bar with 2 x M3 screws
Slot in both top support bars and secure with 2 x M3 screws on the front and 4 x M3 screws for the back

All feedback and suggestions on improvements and modifications welcome.

In Silber schwarz sieht es Mega aus.

Absolutely the best design for a build plate holder made for the ams. Fast print, easy assembly, great fitment and flawless look!

Thanks for your feedback. That looks really nice in all black.

Really nice and clever design, I now have lal the build plates in a single place

@Craggs

Is space for 5 build plates enough? Do you think there’s a need for larger capacity?

while the entire print was slightly smaller (about 2mm) on depth side the width was perfect. also because of the shorter depth it allows me to have it seated leaning forward slightly.

@Craggs

Hi James, thanks for your feedback. I’m surprised that your AMS will not fit as intended. I have several of the same and while they are a tight fit, they all sit in the recess. You might need to fit the side in first or just “wiggle” it around. 😬 I will edit the model for you, but I need to understand the difference in your AMS and mine. Is it possible you could measure the depth of the base section for me? Thanks

@Metacortex

Really nice model. I printed it "inverted", black outside and the inner parts in silver. Looks fresh :) I wonder if anyone more skilled than me can design an adapted version re-using the outer parts and offering 1-3 drawers for the inner part. Cool would also be some kind of printer-tool-storage inlays.

@benjaminkott

This model almost looks like it is what I need/want. The only thing missing for me would be that I can stack it on my riser, It would just need to extend the holes on the underside of the ams. Are you interested in providing such a variant?

The designer has replied

@Craggs

Yes that’s possible. Let me know exactly what you want, and I’ll see what I can do.

Replying to @Craggs :

Hey, a lot of AMS Risers slot into the space on the side of the AMS, if you would replicate this in your model, they could also carry your module, It should only be removal of material I am not thinking about adding the teeth on top. I´ve added some models for reference so you get a better idea.

This model is designed around the newer AMS modules. It is quite a precise fit and works for the 2 types shown in the photos…

I just ordered the 4 pack of plates from bambu lab and as you can see the holder is full is there a extension or can you make the slots wider to fit 2 plates I can fit 2 plates in the slots but it's a little tight? there is probably enough room to fit 4 more plates in the existing design

@Lori3D

This print is easy to realize, the fit is given, I didn't used any Inserts or screw, just glued them together, my print-plates have now found a good spot under the AMS, thank you for the design.

@eddyg1972

I just assembled it and this is exactly what I’ve been looking for to store my extra build plates. I printed everything in PLA and it’s beefy enough to hold the AMS, no problems.
