Serially connect up to 4 AMS 2 Pro & 8 AMS HT units, total of 24 filaments
Fast filament drying & air-tight filament storage
Up to 65°C drying temperature
60% faster feeding speed
Automated venting facilitates dehumidification during drying and ensures airtight sealing for weeks of high-quality printing.
During the drying process, the filament spools rotate automatically to ensure more even drying.
AMS 2 Pro uses RFID to auto-match drying settings for official Bambu filaments, no manual input needed.
Removing snapped filament from the first-gen AMS requires extracting all spools and disassembling the shell with two screws, taking 3-5 minutes. In contrast, the AMS 2 Pro offers direct, tool-free access to filament tubes from the top.
Ceramic filament inlets with Vickers hardness of 1200 significantly enhances durability.
The AMS 2 Pro is compatible with all Bambu Labs products.
* Filaments marked with * require higher drying temperature. The AMS 2 Pro cannot dry them completely. If you want better drying performance for these filaments, we recommend purchasing an AMS HT.
When the H2D is used with a single AMS 2 Pro, all functions, including automatic feeding and drying, can be utilized without an external power adapter.
When the H2D is used with more than one AMS 2 Pro, if some AMS 2 Pro units are used for multi-color printing while others are used for filament drying, then the AMS 2 Pro units used for drying require an external power adapter. The external power adapter can be purchased from the Bambu Lab official store.
X1 Series and P1 Series support AMS 2 Pro, if only the automatic feeding function is used, only the 6-pin cable is required, and no external power adapter is needed. However, if you need to use the drying function, an external power adapter is required for the AMS 2 Pro.
The AMS 2 Pro is compatible with X1/P1 series printers for multi-material printing. The filament drying feature for these older generation machines will be fulfilled through an OTA update by the end of April.
AMS 2 Pro compatibility with A1/A1 mini printers will be added through an OTA update in Q3 2025.
Yes, you can use both AMS and AMS 2 Pro on one H2D.
Currently, drying is not supported for AMS 2 Pro/HT that are actively involved in the printing process, including those that may be used for automatic refill during the current print job. Printing while drying is not yet supported.
The only "dry while print" scenario currently supported is: the printer uses some of the connected AMS 2 Pro/HT units or an external spool holder for printing, while the AMS 2 Pro/HT units not involved in the current print job can be used for drying.
If the printer is feeding or printing, and at the same time powering 1 AMS 2 pro for drying, the drying power will be automatically reduced, in order to ensure that the printing power is prioritized. So it is recommend to use the external power adapter for best drying results.
The H2D printer supports powering one AMS 2 Pro for drying directly from the printer. If you need to dry filament in multiple AMS 2 Pro units simultaneously, the additional AMS 2 Pro units require power supply via a power adapter (purchased separately).
When using the AMS 2 Pro drying function, the AMS 2 Pro must be connected to the printer via a 6-pin bus cable to ensure that the printer is powered on and set to filament drying mode.
The AMS 2 Pro cannot perform standalone drying without a connection to the printer.
