Original Bambu filament roll drops from AMS

Hello everyone,

I put my first A1 Mini Combo into operation today and everything is going really well. Even continuing to print after the filament roll was empty worked well.

Unfortunately, the filament spool falls off the top two holders. A full roll of Bambu Basic PLA fell to the floor. Fortunately, it didn’t break and I was able to simply hang it back up, but of course this shouldn’t necessarily happen more often.

Are there any tips on how to prevent this? Perhaps a pressure that I can put on the spool holders to hold the spools in place?

Thank you and best regards,
Rose

Hi Rose, welcome to the community!

Can you provide a pic of your setup? I also have an AMS lite and Bambu spools fit perfectly. Can you also compare the spool holders that drop the spools to the ones that don’t? See if you can notice and difference in tension or maybe a missing spring or something?

Make sure you push the spools very firmly until they click into place. If they do not “click” then do as @Leonilian said and check to see if that holder is missing a piece. My Bambu spools fit perfectly, other brands may need adapters to work.
