Description

This adapter allows you to use SUNLU filament spools on the Bambu Lab A1 mini's AMS lite color changer. Otherwise these spools don't fit because their inner spool diameter is too large.

This is a somewhat unique design that is faster to print than some other common adapters. It relies on a little slot that the SUNLU spools have to lock the adapter in place. There is a corresponding peg on the adapter that fits in that slot. Note the spool hub is slightly tapered, and it's easier to insert the adapter peg-first from the side farthest from the slot. Just align the peg so that it will click into the slot. I included some pictures which should explain it better - it's simpler than I'm making it sound. :)

There's always a chance SUNLU will change their spool design, but I have also included the original Fusion 360 file in case you need to make modifications.

I hope you find this useful!

This absolutely saved my ass and it works perfectly. Thanks so much! I printed it with the 0.6mm nozzle on my A1 mini on "high strength" and it feels like I could run a car over it.

Sizer is just a tad bit loose on my spool of Sunlu Easy ABS and when putting on or removing the spool on the AMS, the spool gets pushed out. No big deal, just press it back into place while on the AMS and good to go!

Just got my A1 today and this was the first thing I printed, and it works perfectly!

prints well, but risky if filament strand on the inside of spool is long, suggest clipping long filament strands on inside of spool before inserting, or else this design risks moving the filament around within the spool and causing tangles. used once likely won't use again. thank you for the design though.
