Hey do you have plans to make one for the top mounted AMS Lite
@MiroSays2 ай бұрын
Glad you printed the enclosure. I'm very happy with mine, too! I have wall mounted the AMS Lite to save a lot of space. Some things to consider for anyone interested in the enclosure: 1. I used PTFE tubes for the connection between the enclosure and the AMS motors. If you do, make sure the tubes do not extend outwards of the enclosure. I made that mistake and had terrible binding issues. They should sit flush with the outside, at least it you wall mount the AMS. 2. The little plates with the numbers on them can be really difficult to press on the enclosure. I chamfered mine a bit which made it much more manageable. 3. Be very careful when moving the desiccant boxes. I had mine open by mistake and spilled dessicant all over the cupboard, nearby board and floor. I am still finding beads over a month later. I wish the designer would have used a sliding instead of a press mechanism for the lid, but as long as your careful, things should be fine.

The humidity that's being measured is that in the air around the filament. This doesn't mean that the filament is dry though. Since the enclosure isn't heated, the moisture in the filament isn't moving out as readily. I recommend using a filament dryer before installing a roll on the AMS with dessicant, that way you can be assured of low internal moisture within the filament. There are a lot of good videos on the topic of drying filament. This is a great start to making the AMS lite more reliable. Thanks for the vid

if you print this, I'd think about spraying it down with clearcoat (both sides) too. Otherwise, the plastic that you're covering it with is mostly just as porous to humidity as the filament that you're protecting. it slows it, but well, you know. double bag it with the clear coat.

Great job finding that model and showing it to us! My AMS is collecting dust, since I exclusively print from Dryboxes now, even PLA (you can guess why 😏) So I was disappointed that I never really got to use the AMS to it's full potential and I was just waiting for a good Drybox-conversion to come along! So I might give that one a try, thanks alot! ...but wait... ...since you have a "Drybox" too now... 😏 Any fexible/TPU is a material you should absolutely give a try. Unfortunately flexibles do not work on the AMS Lite though, so you need a different drybox 🤣 (look for a second comment regarding that at some later date) They open up a whole world of possibilities. More than PETG, ABS or any other material, since those all basically are the same: more or less stiff. So flexibles are at the other end of that property spectrum. If you never try them, you could potentially miss out on 50% of the fun Jokes aside, on my A1 Minis alone I've used flexibles for 3 upgrades: Extruder cable straightener, a poop bucket mounted on the purge wiper (printed in flexibles for less rattling noise) and a double Nozzle holder (same reason) that perfectly fits in the right-sided hole of the protrusion that the filament cutter lever pushes against. For starters I'd recommend going with a small 500g spool of 95A hardness or harder. Note: I have 2 A1-Minis. Tested flexibles on a 3rd actually. Two A1-Minis printed them like a god, the third one could barely squirt out any flexible material all. Under-extruded horribly. I still need to find the main issue and will probably write a ticket if I can't figure it out. But so far reducing the drag on the filament path helped a lot with the extruder being able to gripping and pushing the filament better. (500g instead of heavy 1kg spool, using ball bearings instead of hanging the spool on a rough printed rod and shortening the PFTE tube as much as possible that feed from a drybox directly into the extruder) So be aware that your mileage may vary. I hope though it was just bad luck on my end and that A1-Mini in question got shipped with some uncommon hardware defect like a weaker extruder spring or similar...

Uh…in LA the humidity is 87%…PETG gets soaked in a day or two. That said, the designers put the humidity sensors right in front of the desiccant, so those readings are literally worthless. I have made a few dry boxes and learned there needs to be an air-tight seal for there to be any real-world impact. If air cycles through the container the desiccant gets saturated and you have to replace it dry it. There is a model for basically the same thing, but each spool gets its own container. This means the air gets cycled when you put the spool in it and that’s it.

The likelihood of moisture affecting PLA is very low, although UV damage can be a concern depending on how it’s stored. I’ve left PLA materials (such as silk and matte) exposed for months or even years without issues. While materials like PETG, ABS, and carbon fiber are more moisture-sensitive, PLA is the least affected. I encourage you to research this further, as moisture shouldn't be a reason to avoid printing with PLA. Keep in mind that 3D printed parts won’t completely eliminate moisture concerns, as printed parts can still absorb humidity. For long-term durability, injection-molded parts are often a better choice. Also, it’s important to note that desiccant packets can only absorb moisture from the surrounding air and won’t remove moisture from the material itself. The best way to dry materials is with hot, moving air.

There is only a small amount of air space in the holders, therefore any ‘outside’ air drawn into the compartments, due to air pressure changes, or filament use, will be negligible. Any moisture which does get in, will be quickly absorbed by the desiccant. This is supported by the fact that the humidity in the container dropped by 15% over night, and in all probability will drop even further, if reuse-able Silica Gel is used. I have P1S/AMS Combo loaded with Silica Gel, and the RH in the AMS is usually 10%. It increases slightly when I replace a filament spool. I keep the, not in use, filament spools in a sealed container, also loaded with SG. After a day, or so, the RH reverts to 10%.

Hello! Great job, this is a really nice project you’ve presented. However, I just wanted to point out that PLA is not the best material for protection against humidity, as it tends to absorb moisture and can actually transmit it inside.

Congrats on getting sponsored! Did you say you printed those on a P1S? Where the P1S videos then 😂? Any issues printing these parts? And last question....any issues using Elegoo filament, or petg in general? Great video and keep em coming Jet 😊
@jet_lea2 ай бұрын
Thank you! Yes they were printed on the p1s and I’ll be honest with you, I like making videos about the a1 mini because they’re relatable for more people however i definitely have some p1s videos planned. I have had zero issues with elegoo filament and it’s all i’ve used. I have also had zero issues with elegoo petg, it prints just as easily as pla for me

If you have a spare $40 I would recommend the sunlu filament dryer for one roll because you can print out if it and it actively heats and dries your filament :)

Funny, I was testing 3 different high speed PLAs available on Amazon and Elegoo Rapid PLA+ (grey) was the price-performance winner for me 😄(12,6€ or 14,0$/kg for a 4kg pack) Here my calibration results on the A1-Mini if anyone is interested (all filaments pre-dryed): Temperature tower: I settled at 235°C from the resistance I got from pushing in the little spikes with a pen (I like to print hotter at higher flow rates to compensate for decreased layer adhesion). Layer adhesion was second best. From 210 to 250°C nothing looked bad. All overhangs perfect. Bridging was as good as perfect at every temperature. Max Flowrates: 30mm³/s @235°C 34,6mm³ @260°C Flow Ratio: 1.01 (did the calibration test with high flow rate, so use 1.00 or .099 if you notice over extrusion) Retraction: 0,3mm sufficient Pressure advance: unnecessary with A1's flow calibration. After that I ordered 4kg more and tried using them out of the box without drying. Optical results (prints) are not as good now. Need to dry them again. Flow rate winner was Polymaker Polysonic PLA with 37mm³/s at 250°C. All overhangs perfect. Bridges 210-230°C good, then little sags, at 250° good again. Very soft/weak material. Also the most expensive. Stiffest material & best layer adhesion was Eryone HS PLA+: 33mm³/s@235°C. All overhangs perfect. Almost no bridging even at 235°C. But progressively worsening bridging from there. Not unacceptable, just the worst bridging of the 3 tested

@SebasTian-od7oz2 ай бұрын
@@jet_lea You could give your standard Elegoo PLA a Max flowrate test with similar temperatures first, before buying the High Speed one. Maybe there is so little difference, that it's not worth switching 😆... who knows. (Orca Slicer has the Max flowrate test build in at the "Calibration" tab under "More..." if you want it conveniently auto generated. Or download it from any platform).

Great video! I was wondering if this also works with the vertical stand mod? The AMS lite takes up quite a lot of space and doesn't have an enclosure. Wanted to solve both these issues with the enclosure+vertical stand mod.
@jet_leaАй бұрын
I haven’t tried it yet however i don’t see why it wouldn’t work because the enclosure doesn’t interfere with the mounts that a vertical stand would use. You would just have to use desiccant pouches so they don’t spill out :)

I've assembled mine in accordance with the video but now find the AMS will not pick up the filament when I pass it up through the little round inserts with the holes. I've checked to make sure the filament is going through the holes easily and up into where AMS grabs it but nothing is happening. All the light are on so the AMS is alive but when I try to print something, I'm getting a popup saying the filament has run out.
