![]() ![]() By matching the size of the tip of our nozzles to the width of track of plastic we are able to print with increased resolution in smaller nozzle sizes and with our larger nozzles we've customised the geometry so that you can easily lay down large layers for fast strong prints. Nozzles are easily and quickly changed out because of their hexagonal shape. The shape of the tip of the nozzle is key to how the hotend extrudes and flattens a track of plastic. While our default 0.4mm nozzle gives great prints with a good balance of speed, ease and resolution we are offering a range of nozzles that have special geometries that are tailored to the specific needs of how you want to print. Our range of nozzle sizes gives you more oppurtunity to choose how you want to print. For the user this means sharper more accurate prints that have less stringing, oozing or blobson the prints. A sharp thermal break gives better control over filament output so you get more immediate start and stops when extruding as well as retracts that are more effective in combatting ooze. We've kept our sharp thermal transition that gives the high quality printing performance users have come to expect from E3D hotends. Most parts of the hotend simply screw together, the new fan duct simply clips into place and can be oriented in many different directions to suit your particular setup. No soldering is needed as we supply supply solder free ferrules for making heat-resistant, quick and easy electrical connections to the thermistor legs. This makes installing or removing the thermistor a quick and clean process compared to previous methods involving fiddly kapton taping. ![]() The new thermistor simply clamps into place with a small screw, high temperature glass sleeving is used to insulate the thermistor legs. ![]() We've eliminated Kapton tape or any other adhesives from the assembly process of v6. This means an overall length of just 62mm and significant reductions in bulk in the X/Y dimensions by using our new injection moulded fan duct.Įasy No-Solder, No-Tape, No-Adhesive assembly and maintenance. We've focussed on cutting as much bulk from the E3Dv6 as possible. The new thermistor placement means you get the most accurate temperature readings with the fastest response. What this means for you the user is that you can go from 20C to 200C in just 65 seconds, temperature control is responsive enough that you can keep the hotend within 0.5C of your set temperature or less with ease. Our new HeaterBlock gives the fastest heat up times and the most responsive temperature control by clamping around the cartridge for maximum thermal contact. Although our latest v6 hotend has a PTFE liner inside the hotend this liner is never subjected to high temperatures so there is no risk of damaging the liner through overheating. This not only allows you to print extremely high temperature materials like Polycarbonate and Nylons but also eliminates HotEnd meltdownfailures associated with PEEK/PTFE designs. ![]() With no PEEK or PTFE in hot regions of our HotEnd we can reach 300C with the supplied thermistor. By swapping a thermistor for a thermocouple (may require additional electronics) you can reach over 400C. (PTFE Liner only present in 1.75mm version - 3mm Bowden has partial lining - 3mm Direct has no lining) This opens up a huge range of new opportunities for your printer. By providing a PTFE liner tube through the hotend that you can extend into your extruder this gives the ability to add the confinement and constraint needed to make excellent quality prints with flexible filaments like NinjaFlex, FlexPLA and FlexPolyester. Print the Widest Range of Materials Possible.īuilding on our signature high temperature performance that allows you to print high temperature materials we've now focussed on adding increased functionality with soft and flexible filaments.
