BoxTurtle – Open-Source AMS-Style Filament Changer for Klipper
Bring AMS-like multi-material printing to any Klipperized machine!
BoxTurtle is exactly what it looks like—an open-source, lane-based automated filament changer designed to deliver a seamless AMS-style experience in vanilla Klipper. Compatible with any Klipper printer (especially VORON designs), it eliminates vendor lock-in while offering advanced spool management and smooth material swaps.
Why Choose BoxTurtle?
- True Multi-Material Printing – Swap filaments automatically like a premium AMS.
- Universal Compatibility – Works with any Klipper printer, no proprietary firmware needed.
- Independent Lane Extruders – Each lane feeds filament to the toolhead with minimal drag.
- Smart Spool Management – Electric respoolers keep filament tangle-free and ready to go.
- Toolhead Buffer Support – Compensates for rotation distance differences.
- Open-Source Freedom – Customizable, hackable, and community-driven.
How It Works
- Lane-Based System – Each lane has its own extruder, moving filament independently.
- Low-Drag Respoolers – Top-fed electric spoolers ensure smooth material handling.
- Sensor-Equipped Hub – Merges lanes into a single outlet with reliable detection.
- Toolhead Buffer – Maintains tension and compensates for extruder variance.
Perfect For:
- VORON Users – Optimized for VORON designs but works with any Klipper printer.
- Multi-Color/Material Prints – Seamlessly switch between filaments mid-print.
- Open-Source Enthusiasts – No walled gardens—modify and improve freely.
