Mega Python AMS (5 Kg Remix) - Ultimate Bambu Lab AMS

Notice!

This is only compatible with the original AMS for Bambu Lab X1/P1 series. 

Please follow my profile here or on Youtube or check back soon for a new design supporting AMS Pro 2, it is being worked on.

Update March 10, 2025

A tiny update to the “two part” 28T and 29T gears. A couple of users have experienced issues that the outer dimensions were a little to large when using this combination, causing the gears to bind or twist a little which in turn caused too much friction for the spool rotation. 

It makes sense as the flow ratio really needs to be spot on and there can be no snags in the printed parts else the gear when assembled can increase just a little bit in dimension compared to the solid option gear and therefore bind, the gear teeth are small and the tolerances are fairly low for smooth operation of the gears. 

Therefore I have scaled these two gears a bit in the actual design. The updated files are now version 1.01b. 

If you have experienced this you can just print the new parts:

• front-gear-29t-hard-1.01b.3mf
• front-gear-29t-tpu-1.01b.3mf
• rear-gear-28t-hard-1.01b.3mf
• rear-gear-28t-tpu-1.01b.3mf

If you prefer you can print the solid gears in TPU instead if you like but if you do use hard TPU such as 98A:

• front-gear-29t-solid-1.01.3mf
• rear-gear-28t-solid-1.01.3mf

The solid gear dimensions have not been scaled in design.

About

This is a remix of the current Mega Python (1.01) that allows up to 5 Kg spools to be used. The sections are 40 mm wider than the normal Mega Python and it uses taller threaded rods and drive gear sleeves as well as front roller holders. 

The other printed parts are identical between the designs and you can indeed mix and match the normal Mega Python and Mega Python (5 Kg Remix) sections. You can tell which parts are remixed as they have the mega-python-5kg prefix in the file names.

It supports spools up to 5 Kg with a maximum diameter of 310 mm and width of 160 mm, useful for print farms and for others who like to use larger spools. It's a bit more advanced as it uses more gears and bearings and involves extending the feeder cables but more on that later.

It also supports smaller spools of course, even tiny 250 g sample spools, same as normal Python.

Our server is named “(Unofficial) QIDI Tech 3D Printers” so don't get confused when you join as it was initially setup for that brand of printers but we've expanded it to other brands and 3D printing in general as well as channels for some of my mods, it's where I generally hang out.

Welcome!
