Upgrade and Simplification Sep 2018

It turns out that the extruder motor mounts directly to carriage piece via rear screws on the motor using M3x30 screws with washers. Clam of carriage used 3 of the diagonam M6 bolts for closure, and 2 of the opposite diagonal bolts for attaching the extruder to the carriage.

Build June 2018

MJ built this and it suffered from interference that stalls the blower fan. Fan must not be too close to the stepper motor.

Introduction

An open source extruder for regular and flexible filaments that can also be used with the Volcano heater block + nozzle for printing with volcano 0.6 mm to 1.2 mm nozzles.

Bugs

• Grub screw on pinion gear interferes with the second gear because the grub screw is not recessed. This requires more precise mounting of the pinion gear, and disallows usage of the extruder without a mount plate. A 2 mm spacer is needed for use with the standard D3D Extruder Holder.
