Bambu Lab AMS 2 Pro - Automatic Material System

AMS 2 Pro Bambu Lab

The Bambu Lab AMS 2 Pro takes filament management in 3D printing to the next level. Thanks to advanced technology, this automatic system keeps your filaments dry, neatly stored, and ready for use, ensuring you always achieve the best print quality. Moreover, it makes switching between multiple materials and colors simple and reliable — ideal for complex and high-quality 3D prints.

The AMS 2 Pro system works with the Bambu Lab H2D, H2D Laser Full Combo, and the X1 and P1 series.
Support for the Bambu Lab A1 and A1 Mini is expected to be added via an OTA update, scheduled for Q3 2025.

How the AMS 2 Pro Bambu Lab system works

Active filament drying at 65°C

The AMS 2 Pro features an active drying system that can reach a temperature of 65°C, ensuring filaments stay dry.

This feature is essential for preventing print errors caused by moisture, such as nozzle clogs or low-quality prints. By keeping filaments in optimal conditions, the AMS 2 Pro ensures more reliable and higher-quality prints.

Hermetic filament storage

The system offers a hermetic storage compartment for filaments, effectively protecting them from ambient moisture. This protection is crucial for maintaining the properties of moisture-sensitive materials such as nylon or PVA.

Thanks to this secure storage, users can trust that their filaments will retain their quality and long-term performance.

Multi-material printing up to 24 colors

The AMS 2 Pro allows for the simultaneous use of up to 24 colors or material types, opening up new creative possibilities. This capacity is particularly beneficial for projects that require complex or multi-colored prints.

Users can easily switch between materials, which simplifies the printing process and reduces preparation time.

AMS 2 Pro: Significant Improvements

Brushless Motor and RFID synchronization

Equipped with a brushless servo motor, the AMS 2 Pro ensures precise and constant filament feeding, which improves print quality.

In addition, filament synchronization via RFID technology allows for automatic material identification, which simplifies filament management and reduces the risk of errors. These innovations contribute to a smoother user experience and high-quality prints.

Active Ventilation for Optimal Drying

The AMS 2 Pro is equipped with an active ventilation vent that intelligently regulates airflow during drying. This automatic ventilation optimizes dehumidification while maintaining the compartment's airtight seal.

The result: filaments remain dry and ready for use, even after weeks of storage. This smart heat management guarantees consistent print quality, especially for moisture-sensitive materials, without manual intervention.

Automatic Spool Rotation

Drying is even more efficient thanks to the automatic rotation of the spools during the process. This feature ensures even exposure to heat and dry air, allowing the entire filament to dry uniformly.

This rotation method prevents damp spots and guarantees optimal filament performance from the moment of loading. It is a subtle but essential feature to improve the reliability and consistency of prints.

Quick, tool-free access to tubes

The AMS 2 Pro resolves a major limitation of the first generation: access to the filament tubes. It is no longer necessary to dismantle the system to remove a broken filament; you can now easily open the top cover without tools.

This direct access system significantly reduces maintenance time and allows you to quickly resume printing in the event of a clog. It is a simple but valuable improvement for a smoother and more comfortable user experience.

Ultra-strong filament inlets

The filament inlets of the AMS 2 Pro are reinforced with ceramic material with a Vickers hardness of 1200, ensuring exceptional durability. These reinforced parts reduce wear over time, especially when using abrasive filaments.

This increased strength ensures a stable and reliable feed over time, minimizing the risk of damage to internal components. A technical choice that extends the life of the device.

Frequently asked questions about the AMS 2 Pro

1. The AMS 2 Pro has an independent power port next to the 6-pin port. Is this really necessary?

When the AMS 2 Pro is used only with the H2D printer, all features, including automatic filament feeding and drying, are available without the need for an external power adapter. However, when multiple AMS 2 Pro units are connected, especially if some are used for multicolor printing and others for drying, the units used for drying require an external power adapter.

2. Are X1 and P1 series printers compatible with the AMS 2 Pro?

Yes, the X1 and P1 series are compatible with the AMS 2 Pro. To use only the automatic filament feed, you only need to use the 6-pin and 4-pin cables and a Filament Buffer or AMS Hub. No external power adapter is needed in this case. If you also want to use the drying function, you will need an external power adapter. Full compatibility for drying on these models will be activated via an OTA update at the end of April.

3. Is it possible to use an AMS and an AMS 2 Pro at the same time on the same printer?

Yes, it is possible to use both a first-generation AMS and an AMS 2 Pro on an H2D printer. This allows you to combine their functions based on your need for multi-material prints or filament management.

4. Is it possible to dry filaments while printing?

Currently, the drying function is not available on AMS 2 Pro or HT units that are actively participating in printing, including those used for automatic feeding during an ongoing job.

5. Can the printer directly power an AMS 2 Pro unit for drying?

Yes, the H2D printer can directly power an AMS 2 Pro unit for drying via the port. However, if you want to dry filaments in multiple AMS 2 Pro units simultaneously, the additional units will require an external power adapter (sold separately).

6. Can the drying function of the AMS 2 Pro be used without a printer?

No, the drying function requires the AMS 2 Pro to be connected to the printer via a 6-pin bus cable. The printer must be on and set to drying mode to activate this feature. Therefore, the AMS 2 Pro cannot dry independently without being connected to a printer.
