I think this is the most important and expensive part and this should not happen especially when you pay almost 600 dollars. Tip: The installation takes no more than half an hour, and you don't have to make any changes to the firmware in the process!The PC coating brings good adhesion and printed models can easily be removed by bending the print sheet. It doesn’t need any firmware updates or other tweaking, apart from making sure the bed’s levelled after you’re done screwing things back together.

Since most of my prints these days are functional prints, I really haven’t tuned the printer for the best quality. Having really struggled with the original extruder kit, and it failing almost every print until it jammed completely I decided to upgrade to this kit. Don't shell out a lot of money for the light stepper; anything with the right RPM and torque specs is perfectly fine, and 0. A direct drive extruder improves extrusion and retraction by removing the need for the Bowden (PTFE) tube. Because the advantage of literally just moving the existing extruder to the X carriage is that all it costs is a dollar's worth of filament and a couple hours of machine time -- plus the disassembly and assembly.I had a difficult thin section part to print on my standard CR10S machine and it failed several times despite my best efforts, so, I thought this is a good time to cut my losses and fit the MicroSwiss Extruder. Easy to Install and use: Switch direct extrusion or Bowden extrusion at any time and easy to disassembly.

We pride ourselves in our commitment to bringing this fantastic technology to thousands of innovative new adopters, all with excellent service along your journey. The nozzles that it comes with are proprietary and can only be replaced with ones of their own kind which are massively expensive especially the steel ones for printing carbon fiber/metallic filaments.In most cases Direct Drive will provide advantages such as increasing the maximum flow speed, enabling the use of Linear/Pressure Advance, shortening Retraction moves, and better resistance to obstructions in the filament path, and more reliable printing of flexibles as you have already noted. But unless you're sticking to print speeds so low you hardly need it, it's still better to run a bowden with LA/PA than without. It is not possible for us to draw any conclusions about you, and any data collected as a result will never be passed on to third parties.
