work-in-progress: double driven feeder


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited) · work-in-progress: double driven feeder

hi!

i am working on a double driven extruder as mentioned here:

https://ultimaker.com/en/community/view/16960-does-anyone-already-have-installed-the-bondtech-extruder-feeder

i will update this thread from time to time, this is my first model:

some information to understand the picture/model:

all the components (gears, pulleys,...) are fixed on the shafts.

every shaft rotates in an ball bearing, except the rightmost one, this is the one from the stepper motor.

the timing belt will be tensioned by an jockey pulley - this allows you to change the the distance between the two drive gears (e.g. for flexible filaments, 3mm filaments and so on).

so long... i'll be back ;)

Cool. I briefly tried designing something similar a while back that I wanted to be printable. But designing gears as small as I wanted them proved to be difficult so I never got much further than the idea stage hehe. Looking forward to see more.

    • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
      (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

      This update is for...
      All UltiMaker S series  
      New features
       
      Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
