What is 3D printer extruder?
The extruder is a part of a 3D printer where material is ejected in liquid or semi-liquid form. It is deposited in successive layers within the 3D printing volume. At times, the extruder only serves to deposit a bonding agent. This bonding agent is also used to solidify the material which is originally in powder form.
Is direct extruder better?
Direct extruders are also able to effectively print a wider range of filaments, most notably, flexible and abrasive filaments. While flexible filaments can work with Bowden extruders, Direct extruders can print them more effectively. This is because a Direct extrusion system is more constrained.
Is a dual gear extruder worth it?
A Dual Drive extruder replaces the idler wheel with a second “hobbed” drive gear, gripping the filament from both sides for greater control. Dual drive is superior, and a core feature of the “next generation” extrusion systems, but aren’t necessarily a must have for everyone.
Do you need 3mm filament for Titan Assembly?
Without this, the filament risks coming off the hobbed area of the extruder. This is not required for 3mm filament.
What are the assembly steps for a Titan?
Herewith the assembly steps for Titan. Titan is easy to assemble, but there are a few little tricks, so make sure you read it all! Note on spacings between motor face and extruder body: A spacer, or a mounting bracket sandwiched between the extruder body and the motor face, is always required. The spacer or bracket must be at least 2mm thick.
When does the mirrored version of Titan come out?
A mirrored version of Titan is to be launched in mid March 2017, which is functionally the same as the standard version, however the nozzle is offset on the opposite side to usual.The main intent of the mirrored Titan is to be used for dual extrusion, maximising build space when using a pair of direct extruders, such as in the configuration below.
What kind of Screws do you use on a Titan?
Drawings and SCAD to follow soon. Use M3 x 8 or M3 x 12 screw to hold the extruder body to the motor face, with the mounting bracket or spacer between them. Screw the M3 Grub Screw loosely into the Steel Pinion Gear.
