    Io sarei interessato, è ancora disponibile?

    ciao

    Ciao, si è disponibile.

    è stata comunque convertita per i filamenti da 1,75mm e non da 2.85 e come feeder ho montato il migliore al mondo il Bondtech che mi è costato 220 euro.

  2. If you need plenty of cooling you can also take a look at the centrifugal fanduct by @gudo

    https://www.youmagine.com/designs/um2-centrifugal-fans-duct

    I have used it for 6 months and could not be happier...printed in PLA and no major issues with heat since the part closest to the nozzle is a piece of aluminium sheet from a can.

    You need to buy new fans though since it uses blower fans and not the ones that comes with the printer.

     

    Hi nilrog

    Thank you for this information!

  3. I use the one from @labern on my UM2 (dual version). It's advantage is the nice air guidance with low resistance, it's disadvantage is that the material comes pretty close to both nozzle and Olsson Block which leads to some deformations even as I printed it in PC.

    I also used it until some time ago but then printing ABS or PC I always deformed so I was looking for a definitive solution or better that would not deform and that it is distant of the hot-end.

  4. Hi to all !

    Hi paul9 !

    Have you tried calibrating the extruder to see how much your outing out

    I think  bob-hepple is right,

    Independently of the material diameter use,

    The extruder Estep calibration was the first thing to do, it's easy to do if you use the Tinkergnome firmware. ( hightly recommanded)

    If use the UM2+ Extruder , here the process

    With the rotary button, clic on Tinker control board

    Advanced

    Preference

    Motion settings

    Axis steps mm

    clic on E "nnn.nn"  the value indicated (note this)

    clic on it to change it by this new value :  341.62

    do not forget to clic on "Store"  before go back

    Done !

    This will be a good average base, (may be it will need to adjust a bit if use the Tom's guide process for sample)

    Here the math formula

    Esteps/mm = (Nr.motor steps rev * Nr.driver micro steps) * (Nr.big gear teeth / Nr.small gear teeth) / (effective grooved gear diameter * PI)

    Extruder UM2+   -     Nema 17-200-16 and 36T/11T reduction gears

    Deep groove gear diameter  9.75mm

    (200*16) * (36/11) / (9.75*3.1416) = 341.62

    Thank you Gudo,

    But I understand after some considerations that actually the problem is not overextrusion but cooling. I can not immediately cool the material while printing and create an effect that seems to be over extrusion.
