Description

A simple filament clip for eSUN plastic spools
 

Spool Compatibility Note: This is for the plastic spool only, if you are looking for the cardboard spool, please download the eSUN cardboard spool clip here

 

Enjoy, and share your results. If you encounter issues please let me know, and I will do what I can to help. 


Features:

  • Removable Some clips have so much friction you cannot remove them without breaking the prongs, these are removable
  • Ultra lightweight at 1.22g per clip
  • Perfectly sized to fit 1.75mm filament without squishing it
  • Tested: Tested on eSUN PLA+ spools, Compatible with AMS, AMS Lite, and Eibos Polyphemus Rotary Function
  • 2 fitment profiles Tightfit is a tigher fit for the filament, loosefit is a looser fit.
  • Prints without Brim, if you run into print failures add a brim, but filament clips have much less cleanup without brims. 
     

Print and Assembly Notes:

  • Important PETG-HF Notice: I observed PETG-HF has slightly more shrinkage then standard PETG, scale all parts on X and Y axis by 100.5%-100.8% for ideal prong fitment. Alternatively you can use the filament setting for shrinkage which does the same thing. 
  • Suggest Printing test print to validate the filament tightness sizing before a larger batch.
  • You only need 1-2 clips per spool.
  • For AMS suggest only placing clips on the right side of the spool, one top and one bottom.
  • For AMS Lite suggest only placing 2 clips on outside of the spool (when loaded to AMS). one top and one bottom.

Print Profile Notes:

 

Nozzle: Suggest 0.4mm nozzle for precision fit
Wall Loops: 3 wall loops on 0.4mm nozzle, 0.6mm nozzle not recommended due to decreased layer adhesion.
Layer Height: Suggest 0.16 or 0.20mm to maximize strength (0.16mm default)
Infill: No infill used. 
Brim: default no brim, if you get failures switch to 2.5mm brim
Material: PETG or PLA
Color: Any
Print Orientation: Print with filament clip area face down as seen in 3mf file
Supports: None
3d Printers: Should be printable on any printer.
Filament amount required: ~1.22g per clip
