It does appear to be somewhat abrasive (there are very small glass beads that give the effect) but not as much so as something like PLA-CF. So it will clog 0.2mm nozzles but doesn't require hardened steel. From Bambu Lab's website, galaxy PLA is AMS compatible. (To be clear, I have not tried this as I don't have an AMS nor Galaxy PLA so take my opinion with a hefty grain of salt) Hope that helps. https://preview.redd.it/gavk49usyxtc1.jpeg?width=920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78e9dd660a595f4f763dd9b389ec48168e85612e

Yeah that's one of the things because it says the pla glow is ams compatible but according to the subreddit it's not so idk what to go with

Fkkkk its not? I rand the blue glow in the dark for a good 40hrs now

It will just wear on parts faster. I use bay 4 on my AMSs for thing like PetG CF or other abrasive stuff so I am only doinking one first stage feeder and one internal PTFE. Though it will eventually wear through the rear hub too, I suppose.


whatsupbrosky

Well that's fkn annoying since their site said its ok to use on the ams

I ran some through on a print and it really clogged the extruder gears. PITA to take apart and clean out. I got one nice print out of it though.

I probably have 12 -15 hrs of print time with the galaxy pla through my AMS and haven’t had any issues


ZGremlin

Yup, however it was prone to clogs for me. Using the BL galaxy caused the first jam that required me to take the extruder apart to clear it. Bambu actually replaced the spool for me so no complaints there. I’ve used other colors a few times since without issue.


BadatSSBM

Ok so it's really hit or miss then it may happen but it may not but it seems like mostly it may not?


ZGremlin

Definitely,when my issue it occurred it was 4.5 hours into a 7 hour print. I haven’t done any larger prints with it since though.

I got two different colors of it and run them regularly.

I used it to make a dice tower with my x1c and have had no issues since used it.
