What do you want for the AMS 3 Pro?

I’ve seen people set it up like that (with an adapter), where do you put the top AMS when you access the lower one?? I’m making a drawer stacker to try to get them stacked compactly while being able to access all of them.

2 levels done, 1 (or 2?) to go…

And to add to the wishlist for the AMS 3 - please do not increase the external dimensions and try to keep the 4 screw points on the bottom the same! Then it can be compatible with a wide range of existing mods.

I would like to see higher temperature drying and I would like it to come with the wire for the ability to print while drying and I would like to see the ability of using it on 2 printers at the same time and i want a separate ams that only can hold 2 filaments so a double ams ht

I would like to see it hold additional filaments possibly double stacked as well as auto humidity detection and control, rfid or qr scanning would be beneficial for filament detection.

Like said previously, one output per bay so I can have a bigger hub right up to the printer (in my case I would need a 14-input hub for at least one of the H2C nozzles) and have the printer hub have sensors so the filament can stay loaded close to the printer. The biggest disadvantage of the H2C with a lot of AMS units is that the lines tend to get a big longer. Preloading the filament closer to the printer can save a bunch of time.

Basically, stick 4 AMS HT units together in a single case. And while you are at it, make 6-bay and 8-bay versions too.

And if the hub can be close to the printer it can have an integrated track switch (cutting and pulling back wouldn’t take that much time and can be done in parallel with the nozzle switch) so I can just input all my AMS units and don’t care which filament goes where anymore.

Being able to read opensource RFID would be nice, bambu store is out of filament so often they can’t expect us to buy bambu only. Either that or get your store stocked better.

I want clearing fowled filament to be easier. AMS 2 pro is not designed for easy of servicing.

Not sure how it would dry automatically when it has no guarantee the filament is what it thinks it is. It would be a nightmare if it ruined a spool in the AMS because it ran the dry cycle too hot.

I would like to see a Peltier effect solid state dehumidifier built in.

The internal hub isn’t strictly necessary. There could be an external hub connected by a 6-pin cable, effectively working as a 4-in-1 PTFE adapter, except with controls. From there, each hub could be connected to the current “dumb” 4-in-1 PTFE adapter setup. What this does is move the choke point closer to the printer, which would enable faster loading and retraction. The downside is more PTFE tubes to deal with, which would be a fair tradeoff in my view.

One of the most important things.

But for this a 6in1. So you can feed all Vortex Nozzle from this point.

Yes, because I’m using THIS…

This would be great however those company’s need to add rfid and allow Bambu to use it. Although I think what u mean is allow custom rfid and i agree this would be amazing

Prusa spools already come with OpenPrintTag encoded SLIX2 tags inside the spool. Other vendors such as 3DFuel are following this standard. I also have the ability to program tags in MIFARE2, OpenTag3D (NTAG215/216 etc) as well as OpenPrintTag. For vendors spools that do not have tags I would like to be able to add my own and have the AMS automatically read them.

Knowing Bambu, it will snow in Singapore before that happens.

Ok I am relatively new to 3d printing 1.5 years in so I don’t know much about filament brands other than Bambu overture and inland and I am intrigued to hear that other brands have that ability. In that case I would love to see Bambu make a reading system that is more open sourced(I might be using this wrong) so people can add custom tags. Although as u said it would probably snow in Singapore before Bambu does this.

I would like to see each spool have its own output to the printer with some sort of buffer at the printer. This would reduce the time to feed/retract filament. I would like for the new AMS to be quieter: my printer is in my living room. In general, I would like to see changes that would make multi-color printing faster and quieter.

My H2S with the AMS 2 Pro is almost never not printing something in PLA, PETG, PETG-CF, ABS, ABS-GF, ASA, PC or PA6 and the only two issues I’ve had with the AMS was caused by user error. It’s been extremely reliable for me.

Okay, that’s good… And no front. But what does that have to do with the topic?
