X1C AMS Hub LITE Adapter (input)

If you have more than one AMS, you will need an AMS hub. The problem I had, was the AMS hub was sold out; it was also $50!

As it turns out, the AMS hub is really nothing more than a big-bro version of the AMS buffer, with a 4-in-1 splitter built in. You don't need to get it, as you can actually print your own splitter, and attach your own PC4-M10 heads. But why do that, when you can simply adapt the $6 AMS hub LITE! So that's what I did.

This model uses the $6 AMS hub LITE, and a PTFE tube coupler.

This is completely non-destructive, as it does not require you to cut or sand the hub.

You do not need to buy the PTFE tube coupler, as one comes with each AMS. Just depress the black end of the PTFE tube coupler and slide it into the model and the AMS hub LITE. The model will keep the black end depressed, which is essential to stop the PTFE teeth from interfering with filament input. Use either 18mm or 20mm M3 bolts to attach the hub to the back of your printer. Your PTFE tube into the buffer should be 58mm in length.
