This is an awesome project! I have a V-Core 3 500mm and would love an MMS system like this.
Now this is awesome…this is very much like what i had envisioned for a filament changer but never would have the resources to properly design it. I've been waiting for the TradRack from annex engineering which should be released to open beta soon. But long term, this seems like the ideal filament changer. Something like ERCF or TradRack would be less expensive though.
Very cool project. I would love to build one of these.
I would love for this to work, but was immediately made skeptical when I heard they are relying on retraction alone for filament extraction, with not cutting. There is a reason why all the truly successful AMS systems use blades. I hope it works!
Literally the first time I've heard that linear rails wear out faster. Interesting!
Should have a RFID tag/reader or QR code on the filament spool, user programmable of course.
Everything he said about motion systems was patently false except in a sea water / aqueous / galvanic-prone environment. I am confused. He didn't even look like a sweaty dude so I have no idea where they are pulling that rail / CF marketing nonsense from. If his rails wear out faster than v-wheels then he needs to seriously look at his rail suppliers, because they are garbage.
" If you know.. you know"……. for those of us who dont?……….Whats the story?
Sorry – what was so fun about "filament changer"?
Kind of big.
Sounds great 🙂 Thanks!
Has anyone used the holders for the filament in the prusa mmu2?
I do like his OS/Patent philosophy. A good method of protection.
Awesome to see you BACK IN ACTION!!!
may be the best video from SMRRF. Also glad to see the community moving to accepting the patents and understanding they dont have to be used in a predatory fashion.
This is absolutely brilliant! What a great guy…thanks for sharing your hard work with everyone sir!
I am excited but curious as to why it took sooooo long for multifilament systems to get mainstream. It seems so obviously useful like… Why haven't we seen more?
That’s amazing! I wish paper printers were as open source as 3d printers are
its been 9 months
Yeah I want that MMS
Very cool! Thanks for sharing, Joseph.
Jacob mentioned the relative performance (durability) between carbon fiber and linear rails and v-wheels. I have always been curious why no one has tried (perhaps they have and found them to be equivalent to linear rails in this area) linear stepper rails for the X-Axis (as the name suggests, a stepper motor opened to be the length of the X-Axis and the extruder is mounted to the carriage which is essentially the "rotor"). I priced one out years (many) ago, for a manufacturing solution (solar cell handler), and found the full end-to-end cycles/day I needed was too high. Cheers
and why didn’t I understand better than Kriality and.. China?
how much does minemel cost?
??
Very good idea about the patent!
welcome back!🎉🎉🎉
This is one of the most interesting 3D printing projects I've learned about this year.
And I really hope that the patented open source model works out as planned, because that could kickstart an overhaul of what we currently have.
I never thought about the wear on linear rails. That's a bit eye opening.🤔
Jacob is awesome, inspiring young man.
I am so pumped for this project!
I have a Klipper machine and don't like that Bambu and Prusa have closed systems.
There's really nothing that great out there.
Patent the hell out of open source, and keep up the great work!
Heyy, welcome back!
This public education amarican does not know
How did I not see the filament under it! I thought it was just multicoloured filament when I saw it printing…
Yay 3DMN is back.
