Hate it when my filament is 15% scorpion

[@markkranc4478]

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

[@jet_lea]

very good point, I will see what I can do to improve the setup!

[@KronicDaydreamZ]

Yeah I made a makeshift dryer with a tote that has a lb of dessicated and I put a lava lamp bottom with the light in it for a day. And it stays at about 10% for 2 weeks in there. And it holds like 10 rolls of filament

[@MiroSays]

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.

[@BossyNSaucy]

Hey, these are all great tips! I also have this enclosure setup and wish this video was out a couple weeks ago before I did mine but I managed 🤣 I’m curious about the PTFE tube portion of your comment…would you mind elaborating on that a bit more? Thanks!

[@jet_lea]

Thank you for the tips! I would also be interested in hearing more about this PTFE tubes

[@davidahn4130]

Everything fits perfectly together except the lid on the desiccant box. I used a cable management velcro tie and wrapped it from top to bottom on the center which keeps the lid on very well. It also serves as a nice little grab handle to pull the desiccant box out when changing spools!

[@davidahn4130]

@@jet_lea I also use PTFE tubes instead of the printed exit guide, it was mentioned in Supergrapher's instructions. "…use a short PTFE tube instead." I used about a 20 mm length and it fits snugly in the exit holes.

[@RayOrsini]

Thanks for the tips. I'm about to do this as well.

[@radish6691]

Color-changing desiccant beads are the thing to get. You can tell when they’re saturated because they change color and they’re “rechargeable”: dry them out in a low temperature oven or microwave on defrost and they’re ready to suck up that moisture again!

[@jet_lea]

That’s definitely something i’m going to look into!

[@niallmartin4098]

Quick word of warning about the indicator type. It seems the chemical they use to make them colour changing are highly toxic. This is according to the CNC Kitchen (IIRC). Just thought people should be aware.

[@kaue5028]

Do you want to know what suffering is? I live near the Uruguayan border, and the hygrometer just hit 94% humidity! I’m getting the A1 Mini with AMS today, and I was already going crazy! Great video, I'll definitely give this solution a try!

I also got the a1 mini without the ams and I wish I saved that 100$

[@jet_lea]

Thank you! I did the same thing and now that I have the ams system I absolutely love it

[@Targetf]

The amount of usage I get out of my ams is probably 5% of my prints with my mini. Granted I only print functional items. Unless you're printing fun landfill items you're best off with just saving the money for filament.

[@w00dlette]

@@Targetf I run my AMS as a spool emptier with all my nearly empty spools for prints I don't care about the colour of. Load up all the colours, set them all to the exact same settings and let it run with runout swapping on.

[@TheFutureLooksGrimm]

@@Bearrito582 have you tried multicolor prints yet by hand loading the machine? It drives me nuts especially when I have a 4h print and put the pause in the slicer too early causing me to change to white too early and ruining my print. But I just couldn’t see myself paying $250 for the ams now, plus it takes up way to much space so I ordered the P1S combo on payments.

[@SebasTian-od7oz]

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...

[@jet_lea]

Thank you for the tips! I’ve tried to print with tpu just to test it out with great results so far however I haven’t had a practical print using tpu yet. i’m sure the day will come soon

[@asdftwef]

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.

[@jet_lea]

definitely not a bad idea

Great video! I’ve never been too worried about humidity here in so cal but seeing that overnight drop has convinced me to print this. Thanks!

[@TheOfficialOriginalChad]

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.

[@jet_lea]

Considering I haven’t been using any sort of filament dryer, I consider any drop in humidity to be an improvement. This also works as a dust cover to keep your filament clean!

Thanks for the video! I could NOT find a video about it before I printed Supergrapher's AMS Lite dry box. But I'm so glad I did. I was amazed at how precisely everything fit together! It would be great if it were a bit more airtight, but for now I'm very happy with mine except for having to recharge my desiccant a bit more frequently here in San Diego. Another video idea: I watched a video about recharging desiccant in an air fryer. I didn't want to put my desiccant in my kitchen oven or microwave, so I was looking for a dedicated MWO but they're not very small. The 2-qt air fryer is pretty small, so I got one. Cheers!

[@GeroSchkowski]

Thank you for the video. I am not sure how air tight this enclosure is and if it really helps keeping out all the humidity, but for sure a good dust protection.

[@Jestey6]

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%.

[@jet_lea]

I had my doubts as well but it is now sitting well under 20% with an ambient humidity of around 35%. in my opinion this is a significant improvement

[@vablackbelt]

you should get rechargeable desiccant because you can see when they are full of water then dry them out and reuse them again (they change colors)

[@jet_lea]

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

@@jet_lea Ok, how do you get an avg < 20%?

[@jet_lea]

currently getting an average of under 20% in the enclosure with desiccants

great thanks

No, thank you!

This is exactly what i need for my A1 mini. I see there is a pront profile for the mini but its basically just been sliced yo pieces which will need to be glued or taped together. Not ideal. I hope the designer makes a better profile for the mini.

I hope so as well

[@jet_lea]

I’ve pretty much only used elegoo matte pla and haven’t had any issues with it so far. I’ve been using the “generic pla” print profile but i’ve also had success using the “bambu pla” print profile

Can you please tell me how many of each spool did you need for both sides

[@jet_lea]

900 grams of filament to do both sides so less than one roll!

[@16-BITGaming-np7uz]

@@jet_lea Thank you! One more question does this mod still allow the use of rfid on Bambu spools?

[@varazir]

How easy is it to remove the roles? I need sometimes remove the nave as the role fits to tight.

[@jet_lea]

it takes me about 15 seconds more to swap a roll compared to no enclosure

[@varazir]

@@jet_lea do you use other brands of filament? The ones I use as I said are a few mm too small in the hole of the role to make it go over the small pads on the arms of the nave. It forces me to pull everything out by gripping the roll with both hands. It pulls out the nave and the role and then I have to push the nave out of the role.

Next time, please compare to humidity inside the chamber versus outside at the same time. This was kinda pointless.

it does compare both the inside and the outside at the same time. Am i missing your question?

I love this but I don't think this is practical, filaments should have to be switched out with ease. The AMS Lite already makes it harder compared to the X1C AMS system.

[@jet_lea]

it takes about 15 seconds to extra, I have a video about it coming out this week

[@jet_lea]

[@igorchak48]

@@jet_lea Here are a few things to keep in mind: when you remove the filament the way you did, there's a high chance it could get tangled. I usually keep a hold of the filament throughout the process and secure it afterward to prevent it from overspinning on the spool. Also, the paper spools tend to break on the side you're pulling from, which has happened to me several times and can ruin the entire spool. Just some thoughts to consider. Overall, it's a fantastic project, and you definitely deserve all the praise for the effort you’ve put into it!

[@adeharris4457]

hassle changing spools though

[@jet_lea]

It takes about 30 seconds extra in my experience
