3DQue Introduces AMS Auto Mapping

Eliminates Reslicing for Bambu Lab Users with AutoFarm3D

August 26, 2025

August 26 2025, Vancouver, BC - 3DQue has released AMS Mapping, a powerful new feature in AutoFarm3D™ that allows Bambu Lab users to print multicolour file across their entire farm without reslicing or manual colour mapping - even when using third-party filament.

In the standard Bambu workflow, each multicolour file is tied to specific AMS slots. If a file is sent to a different printer, users manually confirm filament assignments at the touchscreen - a tedious task that slows down production and limits flexibility.

AMS Mapping changes that.

With AMS Mapping, AutoFarm3D users can slice a multicolour file once, and AutoFarm3D automatically maps the correct colours/materials to the right spools - regardless of which slot they’re in. Files can be queued, routed, and printed across any compatible machine, with no need for manual rework.

“Manual filament mapping works when you’re printing on one machine,” said Steph Sharp, CEO of 3DQue. “But the moment you scale to multiple printers or add auto ejection, it becomes a bottleneck. AMS Mapping makes AMS practical for scaling print farms.”

Key Capabilities

  • Auto Maps to Colours: Automatically assigns print jobs based on filament type and colour, not AMS slot number.
  • Slice Once, Print Anywhere: One file works across your farm. No reslicing. No mapping.
  • Integrated Queueing: Centralized job queue with automatic routing and AMS mapping for all printers.
  • Dynamic Colour Overrides: Change your mind about colours after queueing a job? Just override it from the queue - no mapping or touchscreen setup required.
  • Tracks Filament Levels: RFID or not, AutoFarm3D tracks filament levels on each spool.

Purpose-Built for Scalable Production

Whether you're managing a print farm for ecommerce, research, industry, or academics, AMS Mapping simplifies multicolour workflows at scale. It eliminates repetitive setup tasks and allows AutoFarm3D users to confidently scale production - without compromising flexibility or control.

AMS Mapping is available now for all AutoFarm3D users.
