Description

Printed the axis in ABSx, the other parts in PLA. Works mostly fine, had some issues fitting gear over the axis and had to file it down. Sometimes the guide gets stuck, especially if the spool is non-bambu and has the wrong size. Apart from that works fine and is really usefull, getting filament from non-AMS-compatible spools to (Bambu) spools :)

 

"Purely mechanically controlled filament winder for Bambu Lab P1, X1, X1C or X1CC 3D Printer.
Printed on Bambu Lab X1 CC.

Watch the videos first at the bottom, at the end of the description.
If there is news about the model, you will find out there first.

The model is available for free download and use.
If you still want to invite me for a coffee for my effort, troubles and time (I ran out of filaments a couple of times), you can do it via:

https://paypal.me/mikloskiszely

Please use always bed leveling & flow calibration for this model, especially for the gears and axles!
Bambu Lab P1 should at least be calibrated. (linear advance)

I uploaded some print suggestions as *.3mf files.
(5 print plates for Bambu Lab / Bambu Studio with PEI plate @ the end of the list - attention, not cold plate)

Update:
I tested the "maschine" again and again and it happened to me too: the 45 mm axle (the driven one) broke!
The 3 walls and 25% infil are not enough!

If you haven't printed it yet or broke it, then please print it with:

  • 0.16mm Optimal @BBL profile
  • 5 or more wall loops
  • 100% infill (sparse infill density)
  • Rectilinear (sparse infill pattern - set automatically)
  • speed outer wall (slow as possible for more accuracy) e.g. max 60 mm/s
  • support (yes) normal (auto)

Update 2:
If the stronger printer settings for Axis 45mm are not enough, the you can also print the “Heavy Load” version (see folder “Heavy Load Parts”)

Centering discs:
If you need a special size, you can decrease or increase the next size in the slicer program.
E.g. if you need 51.5 mm, then you can take the 50 mm disc and scale up accordingly before printing.
(51.5 / 50 = 1.03, i.e. print 3% larger)


Reference print settings for:

  • Winder Spool Holder Main Body
  • Donor Spool Holder Frame
  • Winder and Donor Right Hand Spool Axle Nut
  • Donor Spool Holder Axle without Gear
  • all Spooler Centering Discs (50/55/60/65 mm)

Settings:

  • 0.20mm Standard @BBL X1C Profile
    +custom settings:
  • Wall loops: 3
  • Outer wall: 60 mm/s
  • Infill 25 %
  • if you need support, don't do it at the vertical ball bearing openings
    support can be used under the filament carriage holder and under the lower ball bearing for the filament sled. (paint it manually)

Print settings for:

  • all Gears
  • all shafts / axis (except the driven one 45 mm, see above)
  • handle or drill adapter parts
  • all washers
  • and all Filament Guide parts

Settings:

  • 0.16mm Optimal @BBL X1C
  • Wall loops: 3
  • Outer wall: 60 mm/s
  • Infill 25 %
  • no support needed, except:
    all axis with hexagon

please print all parts (gears, axis) horizontally, except:

  • Winder Right Hand Spool Axle with Gear 25 teeth or the Heavy Load version
  • Winder and Donor Right Hand Spool Axle Nut
  • Gear Worm
  • Rotary handle - twist grip - axis
  • Rotary handle - twist grip - knob
  • Donor Spool Holder Axle without Gear

Multiple Prints:

  • all centering disc's 2x per spool
  • 4 x Washer 3.0 x 8.5 mm
  • 2 x Gear with 50 teeths

Additions parts:

  • 7 x 608 bearing

I see so many remixes, and it was a bit overwhelming with upgraded this or stronger that without a reference, so I stuck to building the stock version of this and pick and choose which remixed parts I wanted to try down the road as needed. you start to understand all those remixes after you build this yourself and use it.

Overall very good model. A couple of suggestions. 1. Add mounting features to winder base. 2. The handle spinner post could have a flat spot to help keep it from spinning as you are trying to tighten the screw. (Why not provide for a 3mm screw here?)

Multi-color all-in-one - 7 plates - 3 colors - AMS needed
Everything printed great except for the axles on plate 4. Just not a lot of area for bed adhesion, so it’s not really the model to blame, but I can’t be the only one to have had that issue. EDIT: 5 stars now. Turns out I knocked the connector lose on my part cooling fan before I printed these and that’s a recipe for disaster for these thin parts with small contact areas and are basically all overhang on the bottom. 100% my fault and the reprints came out great!

I'm just putting mine together and i had similar issues. I've printed it all in ABS and the spindles did start to lift. In the end i put a 5 brim around them and cleaned it off with a sharp knife after. They printed perfectly with only a little cleaning up. My M3 6mm's will be here tomorrow. This is my first time running filament to a spool. Only reason i'm having to do it is the recent Bambu refills have been coming very loosely wound. It's a shame as they have been good up until now. I pill post my print as soon as it's finished.
