Dual Extruder with different nozzle size

Post by eisaiasjr » Mon Sep 14, 2015 5:18 am

Hello:

I am interested in the dual extruder and I was wondering if I could use it to print in 2 different nozzle sizes

I am thinking I would put a .25 on one and a .5 on the other...

This way I can use the .25 (by itself) to do very fine prints and the .5 (by itself) to do the fast-draft prints

In addition I would like to use BOTH at the same time the .25 to do the actual prints and .5 simultaneously to print HIPS support material when I am doing prints.

Does this make sense?

Are different nozzle sizes available for v4 hotends?

Best,

Estefano

This is 100% doable, but I don't know if a 0.25mm is available for the V4. The 0.35 is still pretty fine.
