Voron 0 V.01 Extruder remix 1 |
|
Quick video of my first test print after replacing the Voron 0 Mini After Burner on my ongoing build with a remixed version of the excellent HextrudORT Extruder found here:
https://miragec79.github.io/HextrudORT/ and inspired by the V0V0 remix here: https://www.teamfdm.com/files/file/372-voron-zero-vov0-toolhead/ I have used the original HextrudORT CAD files to remix so this version uses the same fixing arrangement to the original Mini After Burner. The existing X Mount can therefore be retained and does not require re-installation. I was frustrated with the original After Burner due to the large number of clogs I was personally experiencing. Also when the extruder was not performing well, the fully enclosed cowl make it very difficult to analyse where the issues were. It's early days but the extruder is performing well so far. I have included a bowden tube between the extruder assembly and the heat sink with an inline spring to provide continual tension to the tube when retracting to hopefully reduce the clogs experienced on the Afterburner. The part cooling fans are retained by a physical clip and an optional lower M2x 8mm mechanical fix. Much less stress on the fans and cables. I am currently using a Dragonfly but a friend may want a Dragon version. The next step will be to look at the whole of the wire management of the hot end assembly because it is not the best IMHO. |
