AMS HT - Desiccant Box / Silica Dry Pod

Desiccant container for the Bambu Lab AMS HT.

This was designed to fit snugly into the AMS while still having good airflow through the compartment.

 

I highly recommend printing it in ABS or ASA.

If you use PETG, I would not use the drying function above 70°C.

ABS easily stands up to 12+ hour drying cycles at 85°C.

 

Printing instructions

• Use the included print profile. The ABS version has slightly different geometry to account for shrinkage.

• The 2nd print plate includes a funnel attachment to make filling the desiccant box easier.

   

Usage:

• Refer to the 4th image for attaching the lid. The front must be inserted first at an angle. Then you can push down to securely close it.
• To remove the lid, use a finger nail or flat tool and pry up from the back.
• To remove the pod from the AMS: the lid features a tab protruding from the front that you can push up on. There's also a notch that you can fit a tool/fingernail into. 

 

I prefer to use white silica bead desiccant without color indicators because the additive is toxic.
