About this 3D model

REVISION HISTORY 2023-07-19: v1 - Initial release 2023-10-19: v2 - Updated to address the flaws of the original design; now made to be modular. ________________ This is spool adapter for Bambu Lab AMS that can fit a wide range of 200g/250g mini spools. See illustration for sample 250g spools that can be accommodated. Version 2 addresses the flaws of the original design where the spindle will break easily either by overtightening or by dropping the spool. This release now has the spindle printed separately from the spool, made wider and is now horizontally oriented for added strength. PROBLEM The Bambu Lab AMS cannot use 250g spools due to its small size Adapters for 250g spool currently available are designed for specific brand of spools therefore each spool needs an adapter printed SOLUTION Design an adapter for 250g spools that can be printed once and can be reused over and over catering to a wide variety of the mini spools. The threaded hub design lets you spin the spool clockwise to tighten, counter clockwise to unlock, which makes the adapter super quick and easy to transfer to another mini spool! WARNING / IMPORTANT NOTES Printing profile - please make sure you print the spool with 4 or more walls for added strength. Supports are NOT needed on any of the parts. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN as you might split the thread layers Proper filament types . Ensure that you have properly calibrated your filament and that the layers strongly adhere. Otherwise, you risk delaminating the layers. DO NOT USE SILK AND MATTE FILAMENT as layer adhesion of these type of filaments are usually not strong enough for these types of applications. ASSEMBLY COMPATIBILITY This adapter has been tested to work on the following filament brands' mini spools : Brand OD (in mm) ID (in mm) Width (in mm) 3D Genius 140 58 43 3D Jake ecoPLA 140 51 44 Amolen 150 55 35 Bblife 134 53 44 Bud3D 150 53 35 Cindeer 150 52 37 Creality 141 55 38 Dikale 140 58 43 MIKA3D 134 53 44 MKOEM 134 53 44 Printbed 120 52 37 Sunlu 120 42 47 Tecsonar 150 55 35 Tinmorry 150 55 35 Tttyt3D 134 53 44 Yousu 152 54 40 Appreciate if you post your make and the brand you used the adapter for so that I can expand the list!
