Bambu Lab P1 / X1 / X1C / X1CC Filament Spool Switcher & Winder - Heavy Load Parts.

Based on the feedbacks, it was designed and published
an alternative drive to the model.

This should also work with heavier spools.
(but more than 1kg is not recommended)

Please remember, it's always a plastic construction:
don't run it too fast (frictional heat - will melt)...

3 minutes per kg should be a good result anyway.
In this example:
1 kg PETG in less than 3 minutes
(I respool it back and forth several times
from a foreign spool to BBL and back,
this is part of the recordings)

This represents a genuine boon to the 3D printing community, you deserve an award for this. Stellar work.

It's impressive just how close to a perfect winding the rewound spool gets. Great job on the mechanics/design.

[KevOXO]

The assembly clips are amazing, the design is also amazing, the worm drive being the best bit.
Then you give it away free, thank you.

Cool! And this is the first practical use of the reciprocating half-gear mechanism I've seen!

[Mse]

Gratulálok! Szuper terv és gyakorlati megvalósítás!

So clean. I love it. I started printing this out and hope to finish by this weekend. Well done!

[handsonkatie]

Beautiful work, hypnotic to watch! ❤❤❤

[Biff]

Much better with the gear set for side to side inside that box/bracket you have. But it still needs some tensioner on the original sppol for a more consistent wind, and no runaway on the starter spool, just a small pad with tension screw to apply a little tension to the feeder spool will help a fair amount

[Oliver]

Thank you very nice design can't wait to try it out.

[enriquecolosimo]

EXCELENTE!!! FELICITACIONES!!! QUISIERA LOS STL Y LOS PLANOS PARA CONSTRUIR TODO; DESDE LA CAJA DE ENGRANAJES HASTA LA GUÍA PARA ENROLLAR... MARAVILLOSO...

[elmargraf]

thank you for that nice work. I printed it out and tested it already. Were do i find the updated files with the hex adapter on the Spool Axel. regards

[mrcpu]

That was really cool. Looks well done. I need one. Time to fire up the printer.

[Nonprofessional_Tinkerer]

Its a great design ive had to make some personal mods but works, latest mod was to stop the sled part from coming off during spooling

[rev_rend]

Excellent work. I look forward to printing this.

[TheFotoGuys]

Woaw just what I needed!
Amazing work! :D

Is PETG string enough for this or does it need ABS/ASA?

[mikloskiszely]

Hi everyone!

Can you help me please?
As mentioned, I'm working on the V2, which should eliminate the teething problems of the first model and add some functions.
One feature will be that you can use modules to optimize the winding on various spools - plug&play - with various widths
(V1 was only planned on the winder side with a spool width of 60mm - for BBL)...
All this with a more torsion-resistant construction. (main frame & filament guide also)

The winder should easily handle spooling from very small (05.kg?) up to 3kg spools.

Now my question:
I only have 1 kg spools.
BBL chose the size 200mm diameter and 68mm outside and 60mm inside width. (with 53 or 55mm hole)
Other spools of mine also have a diameter of almost 200mm, but 77-78mm outside width and 72mm inside width.

Which common spool sizes still exist?
Please give me a few sizes: "diameter", "outer width", "inner width", possibly the size of the "central hole" (for centering discs) as an answer to this question here.

Thank you and greetings, Miklos

It is looking good. The first three layers looked perfect, but when the fourth layer started it looked like there was a gap. I am guessing that is why the winding was not perfect from then on out. It was certainly usable and better than some of the filament I have purchased. I am trying to make a winder that produces spools as good as Hatchbox filament.

[NoIPHU]

Very good job! / Gratulálok.. szuper :))

[josephp]

Have you seen the AMS hydra? I can run atomic/prusa etc without respooling now
