[BaBo duo] AMS drawer stacker

Create your BaBo organizer! A system created to store them all!

Description: This is the BaBo duo AMS drawer stacker. I designed this model to be able to stack several Bambu Lab AMS in a space-efficient manner.

For this purpose, the AMS are stored in a kind of drawer and can be pulled forward if necessary, while they are rotated so that the spools can be easily removed.

The AMS stakers can then be placed next to the printer or on the floor. Alternatively, there is also an option for mounting under a shelf or table. I also recommend attaching at least one staker to a wall to prevent it from tipping over. There are attachments with different lengths for this purpose.

There is also an optional solution to fix the cover of the AMS to the AMS above it with magnets during the spule change. (The upper AMS should not be empty)

BaBo organizer is a stationary, very flexible system to store your tools, spare parts and even printing plates. The design is based on the iconic look of the Bambu Lab X1 printer. The entire system uses only 1 type of screw, M3x8 countersunk screws.

Update: (06/09/24)

• Connections of AMS frame changed for simplified assembly
• Side parts of the AMS frames changed to fit all versions.

Fix:

Printing: Layer height: 0.2 Supports: Yes Brim: No Material: PETG (recommended), ABS, PLA (do not use Silk or Matte PLA)

Assembly:

Please make sure that everything is fastened properly so that no one gets hurt or anything breaks. Approximately 8kg of weight will impact the construction per AMS stack.

Required parts per AMS stacker drawer

• printed parts
• 30 x M3x8 countersunk screws (ISO 10642)
• 4 x 608 ball bearing (DIN 625)

top mount (optional)

• printed parts
• 4 x M3x8 countersunk screws (ISO 10642)

magnet holder (optional)

• printed parts
• 12 x Ø10x2 magnets

Put the frame for the AMS together by pushing it into each other. Make sure that the connections are free of stringing. Then insert the bearings to the side and fix them with the screws for assembly.

Screw the AMS to the frame from below. Be careful not to overtighten the screws.

Assemble the left and right parts together. The frame assembly with the AMS is then inserted into the side guides. There are recesses in the guides for this. The left and right parts can then be screwed together in the middle. Wait to install the vertical spacers until you have the next AMS stack.

Repeat the previous steps for additional AMS stackers.

To connect the AMS stacks, the vertical spacers can be pushed into the side guides of the AMS stacks and screwed.

From this point on, it must be decided whether the AMS stacker will be mounted with the top mount or should stand on a table or floor.

If you decide to use the stackers on your table, there must be space below the stacker so that the lowest AMS can be pulled out. [BaBo duo] modules can be installed for this purpose. The height of the modules should be 120mm.

At least attach the upper AMS to a wall or something else to avoid tipping over.

The top mount can be used when mounting under a table or shelf. In addition, the AMS stackers can be attached to a wall on the back.

Optional magnet holder for the AMS lid. Glue the magnets into the front part of the AMS frame (recesses from below) and into the magnet holders. Make sure that the poles of the magnets attract each other. Then stick a (as thick as possible) double-sided adhesive tape on the round side of the magnet holder. Hold the magnet holders against the magnets in the frame part so that they can align. The cover of the AMS can then be pressed against the magnet holders so that they stick together.

Wiring and connecting the PTFE tubes If you plan to connect multiple AMS units together, you will need to purchase the AMS Hub.

Connect the top or bottom AMS closest to the printer with the 6pin 1500mm cable included in the AMS hub. All other AMS's can then be connected to each other using the 6pin 510mm cable included in the AMS.

Then connect each AMS to the AMS hub with a sufficiently long PTFE tube. Make sure that the AMS can be pulled out.
