This is a derivative of the Plastruder MK3 design I've been working on. The goal is to make the plastruder into a printable design that can be made on a MakerBot. I also wanted to take on an ambitious project to put the new AOI plugin, MetaCAD through its paces. Learn about metacad at http://www.metacad.org
This extruder design uses 5 printed pieces: two halves that bolt together for the housing, 2 dinos to put it at the right height for printing, and a simple insulator retainer to keep the PTFE in the right spot. The rest of the design is mostly the motor, heater barrel assembly, electronics, and a 625 bearing to provide the pinching force. It has yet to be tested, but ideally it will be simpler to put together, as well as a sturdier design with no squeaks! I've printed all the parts on my travel bot, and as soon as I get home, I'll be assembling them and testing them out.
A few design notes:
* no more layered construction! that was a hack to make it laser-cuttable.
