Difference between revisions of "Ultimaker Syringe Extrusion System (quickmountable) (Q68616)"

Features: * It can be mounted & removed within seconds facilitating the: Ultimaker Generic HeadMount http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:20775 * No z buildspace is lost. If you crash the syringe into the build platform it will just slide upward until the z endstop is reached - no damage. Restrictions: * springiness of the dyneema thread (preextrusion needed) * If you have a custom extruder you might be required to redesign the winder coupling part. * The current design uses "Ultimaker BowdenFeeder Repair Kit" http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:10799 * The current design only works with the old style hobbed bolt which has a hexagonal head Credits: * This design was heavily inspired but not directly derived from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:14421 "ultimaker syringe extruder II" by joris It was redesigned from scratch to gain more parameterisability and instead of the plastic filament it uses a dyneema thread to pull the piston in. Notes: * A real bowden-cable from a bike is probably too stiff the piston wold start to retract before the wire would lie flat on the winder ([4b] see in the instructions) edit: after initial tests I'am not so sure about this this anymore * The Gcode files are for Ultimakers with an old Bolt.
