AMS Hub Cover with PTFE Tube Guide

This AMS Hub Cover with PTFE Tube Guide is a remix of the original Bambu Lab AMS Hub Cover model and adds a practical solution for smoother filament feeding. If you're looking for a way to reduce friction and ensure your filament travels more smoothly into the AMS Hub, especially over longer distances, this design might be just what you need.

Key Features

Enhanced PTFE Tube Guides
The wall mount has been modified to include additional PTFE tube guides, allowing for a straighter path for the filament. This helps prevent kinks or strong bends that can cause unnecessary resistance or jamming in the AMS system.

Reduced Filament Friction
By minimizing friction, this design helps reduce filament tension, which can be especially helpful if there's a significant distance between your AMS and printer setup. The smoother path may also reduce filament wear and improve overall reliability during printing.

Provided Files

3MF File for Bambu Lab X1C
For Bambu Lab users, I've included a .3mf file optimized for the X1C, ready for use with minimal adjustments.

Standard STL Files
STL files are available for all parts, allowing for flexible compatibility with most 3D printers.

SolidWorks Part Files (.sldprt)
For those who want to tweak or remix the design further, SolidWorks part files are provided, making customization straightforward for other setups or preferences.

This model is part of my hobby collection, and I hope you find it useful in enhancing your AMS setup. You are welcome to make your own adjustments if needed!
 

Updated V2: Added Stoppers for Improved Stability

This updated version includes stoppers on both sides of the AMS Hub holder to prevent horizontal sliding. These stoppers keep the AMS Hub securely in place, ensuring stability even when the AMS is moved. This enhancement improves reliability and eliminates the need for frequent realignment, providing a more seamless and user-friendly experience.
