I recently purchased a Bambu Lab A1 Mini 3D printer equipped with the AMS Lite unit. While using it, I noticed that the filament feeding unit top covers have small, barely visible numbers, making it difficult to differentiate between the units. To address this, I designed custom caps with larger, more visible numbers. Additionally, since the AMS Lite feeding units are equipped with LED lights, I integrated a small diffusion layer into the design. This ensures that the status LED light remains visible from any angle, enhancing the overall user experience.
Key Features:
- Improved Number Visibility: The custom caps feature larger, easy-to-read numbers to simplify identifying different feeding units.
- LED Light Diffusion: A built-in diffusion layer prevents the custom caps from obscuring the LED lights, allowing the status indicators to be seen clearly from all angles.
- Multiple Orientation Options: Four versions of the caps are available to accommodate different orientations. Whether your AMS Lite unit is mounted on the wall, placed on a custom stand, or positioned differently, you can choose the version that ensures the numbers are correctly oriented and easily readable.
- Customization: Using Bambu Studio's painting feature with bucket fill functionality, users can customize the accent color of the caps according to their preferences. Additionally, a full .zip file containing all the .step files is included, allowing for further customization of the covers and adjustments to fit specific orientations.
