New full Metal Hot End Update

2/2/2014

3 Comments

 
Here is the Evolution of the idea of a single hot end for double filament. 
This is the version we are going to distribute for testing.

Picture

The filament channel is built into a single piece of aluminum connected to the tip.
There are no junctions inside, there are no liners to be changed.
Filament section change: 
All you have to do is to unscrew the tip, slide out the channel and simply insert a new tip with channel. 
All the Hot end body is 54 mm long.
This version is delivered with a 0,4mm nozzle for the 3mm filament and a  0,3mm nozzle for the 1,75mm filament. 
Of course, the Hot end requires cooling as it is completely made of metal and the thermal conduction is rather high. We suggest using  a 40 mm cooling fan.
For the moment the final user must design a proper fan mount fro his printer mode
