Description

Converts 73.5mm (~3in) spools to 55mm (~2in) spools to work with the AMS Lite. Designed for fitting Sunlu spools that always slip off the AMS Lite system. You do not need to print support with this model. Feel free to remix for other spools!

Print at 15% infill. PLA will work great!
When assembling, you will need to bend the part inward. It will act as a spring to grip the spool. A tight fit is needed so it does not fall off the AMS lite. To take it out of your spool, push with 2 thumbs on the opposite side, and it should pop right out.

NOTE: Some rolls have draft (a slight taper) on the inside diameter walls. If the adapter does not fit well, try inserting on the other side of the roll.

Wasn't able to get it to fit before it broke. Thanks anyway

@BRADCAD

Darn, may I ask what material and brand you were using? Maybe I can make a profile or a tweak to the design so that doesn't happen again

Replying to @BRADCAD :

Sunlu matte black PLA

@BRADCAD

Replying to @swim_dx :

I've had good luck with Sunlu before, but some matte PLAs have weaker bending strength, so it's easier to snap. If you have another PLA or PETG to print with and that breaks too, let me know, and I'll work on getting a better profile for the part!

@BRADCAD

@ssweat The rating might be if you used the same print profile. I didn't use gyroid infill, but your print looks like it turned out great! Thanks for sharing!

I have printed 4 of these for the A1 Mini. Since the core of the spool for Sunlu filament was too large, this print allowed me to properly mount my spools. Thank you for providing this!

@BRADCAD

Thank you for sharing! I love getting to see others have successful prints that make printing even easier. Glad to hear they work well!

very tight to push through! One side cracked when doing so but I was being too rough with it. It's still connected and fits good on the AMS. no sliding off. this is a Sunlu PLA silk spool.

@BRADCAD

Glad to see it works! If it felt like a super tight fit, try and insert it on the other side of the spool. Some spools have a taper on the inside and make one side fit differently
