Extruder Belt Reduction
An Extruder with bowden cable has a much greater push resistance than a directly driven extruder.
When a small nozzle is used, the resistance becomes even greater, so that we come to a point where the stepper motor is no longer able to drive the filament wire.
A belt driven reduction can offer the solution.
The Belt drive has been recovered from a RC plane 2: 1 reduction.
The big wheel is 36mm and the small wheel is 16mm outside diameter.
