New Extruder Drive Gear
New Extruder Drive Gear
We have a new extruder drive gear that I'd like to send out for your feedback. It is a drop-in replacement (though we've modified the filament drive for it). If you'd like for us to send you one, send a request to upgrade@maker...

Re: New Extruder Drive Gear
Whats the intended benefit of this new drive gear? Will it help with NinjaFlex type materials?
Re: New Extruder Drive Gear
We can't test it on all the available materials so we are looking for feedback. Try it and let us know...
Re: New Extruder Drive Gear
I sent an email for one ... I seriously think you guys underestimate my ability to ferret out weird things. I can probably get bog-standard PLA to strip the teeth off of hardened steel, somehow.
Are there materials we can skip testing?

Re: New Extruder Drive Gear
So a modified filament drive is required? We need to print a new one?
Re: New Extruder Drive Gear
@insta - just use it in your normal routine. You do not need to try to any specific materials.
@jim - you should be able to use it with your current setup. We are using a different filament drive but it is not required.
