AMS Lite Y-Splitter Adapter with External Spool Support

Engineered to accommodate up to five filament spools without removing existing PTFE tubing during material changes.

  • Requires a short length of PTFE tubing to connect to the adapter base, in your preferred size, enabling compatibility with supports such as my (AMS Four-Way Stabilizer)
  • (No purchase necessary—simply cut from your existing tubing!)

A dedicated support keeps the adjacent PTFE tubing precisely aligned, ensuring a smooth, consistent filament flow.

This system streamlines external filament management and enhances efficiency during specialty material printing operations.

 

I recommend using a Rotary Spool Holder Adapter like mine:

Printed with no issue but found the internal holes to snag with the filament a bit when feeding through, had to widen it slightly to for feed to go smooth. Will keep an eye on it and see 8f this design causes stress on the ports,
Strength Issue:Update on rating, had to drop it due to the item snapping in half during printing, fortunately those 2 tubes were not in use.

Hello! Which filament did you use to print this? I’ve never seen a break like that, it’s quite unusual, are you sure it’s not due to the inclination of the PTFE tubes? I’m sorry this happened, let me know, I’m here to help

I suspect this breakage is due to both the material used and the incorrect use of the support; the support is designed to adhere to the PTFE tube laterally, not diagonally This, coupled with the excessive inclination of the PTFE cables, likely fractured the support

I printed it in PLA. the tubes in the picture are at a bit more of an angle than usual due to me moving things around post break, But not much. I initially had them lined up in a straight line but felt it was putting added pressure on the joins all round. I moved it diagonally and stress on the ports seem to be a bit lower. I do wonder if the break was due to the rather short PTFE tube I gave it on the exit, not giving it much room to move?

Nice execution of the model. The fit was a bit too tight in my experience. Works but with some force 💪

Thank you for the review! I specifically intended the inlets to be somewhat narrower than usual, to prevent printing issues!

When I tried to feed filament it got stuck and popped the PTFE tubing out.

It's strange that this happened, are you sure you assembled the support correctly? And that there wasn't any leftover filament inside?

You must manually remove the filament to switch to the AMS Lite; there's no way to automate this (unless you use two AMS units)

The model did not allow me to insert my PTFE tubes However the model printed very well with a 02 nozzle and adaptive layers PLA flows well through the model I must have made a mistake

Hello! I don't quite understand what happened, have you tried trimming the PTFE tubes? They might be damaged or bent! Let me know, I'm ready to help!

The hole diameter is too small for the tubes I received with the AMS lite, even after cutting them. The filaments pass through the model very well. Excellent model, but I should have printed it with a 0.4 nozzle instead of a 0.2 nozzle

Does this require any glue or the like to keep the page tubes connected, or can I just shove it tight and it holds?

Hello! No glue is needed, it's designed to avoid it by tightening the tubes a littleHowever, the use of glue is always recommended with any type!

Thanks, would like to avoid glue as much as possible. Thanks for the swift reply, it's a small enough print to test out :)

Where did it break? What do you mean by “smooth operation”?
