About this model
May 12th, 2019 ============== Added some print tests pictures Upcoming V2 : Toolchanger ========================= Lock-system E3D (that's the guys who designed the 'original' machine - i think they released it now, or it will be soon) reported that the servo of their beta printers was failing after 60k changes, so they switched to a micro stepper. I will follow their research/work and redesign my toolchanger to use micro-stepper too. After some tests, i'll use a 24BYJ48S 2-phase mini-stepper, smaller ones need too much gearing, thus tool changing speed is reduced, and when it's 4 changes per layer it's a huge win to go as fast as possible. Steppers have drawbacks too. At the moment i don't see how to use a stepper without some kind of endstop, and without risks of position loss at power do…
