This is a prototype IR sensor and alarm which detects the direction and speed of your 1.75mm filament spool. This sensor will sound an alarm when your spool stops due to:
- filament-jamming,
- nozzle-clogging,
- extruder-grinding,
- motor-stalling,
- out-of-filament,
- or end-of-print.
If your filament stops moving forward, this sensor will detect it and alert you.
This third version is a compact model designed to fit inline with your filament, close to your extruder. This design is for 1.75mm.
Required parts:
- 608 ball bearings (2 ea)
- M3 x 12mm screws (4 ea)
- M3 x 18mm screws (2 ea)
- M3 nuts (6 ea)
- Filament Roller control board (1 ea)
- Small rubber bands (1 ea)
