3d printing filament splicer

A significant amount of effort went into its creation, we attempted to design a completely automated splicer initially but it encountered issues with filament expansion, rendering manual labor the reigning champion. On the filament sample snapshot,...

Part of the New Jersey Governor STEM Scholars project, our team sought to make a 3D filament splicer: Website: https://www.filamentsplicer.com/home The first file is the fusion360 file for ease of use, especially for those in schools and university...

We aim for more color options in OSS 3D printing and have other ideas in store, with the Filament Splicer being just a starting point. For assembly, you need a 6mm plywood frame (blueprint available), Teflon thermal isolation plates, copper...

Filament Splicer Expertise: Mastering 3mm and 1.7mm Diameter Filaments

After printing and using trustfm's filament splicer joiner with moderate success, I decided to see if I couldn't improve on a splicer so that I could get consistent repeatable splices. Using mdkendall's Parallel Jaw Pliers as a base for the design, I...

This is a 2 piece filament splicer. There is one model with a cutout for ptfe tubing and one model without. Slide both halves of the tool together. Cut both pieces of filament at an angle. Push one Piece of filament through each end of the tool so...

This is a modified filament splicer by DR2D on Thingverse. Having done fiber optic splicing in the past the biggest issue I have with melding is squared ends. This modification adds the ability to square each filament end prior to joining. While DR2D...

... Holding jig remixed to utilize hex shapes bores and filament holding slots to avoid printing with supports and achieve better tolerances. Screw the guide bottom plate to a board. Use a piece of 3/16" dowel or short dowel pins for the hinge pins.

mold melted filament into the desired shape and size. ...use supports everywhere to obtain best outcome.</p>

Sandpaper and file to fit. ...Add grease to track. Parts must slide without side or up/down movement to keep filament centered. Heat with flame or soldering iron. ...Let cool and cut off the excess around the welded joint.

If your Mk7 only accommodates 1.75mm filament, consider creating a converter for your 3mm material; however, this might require ample time, which you may not have at present. ...The Mk7 features PCB heaters that melt plastic between three metal layers...

The push fitting isn't accurate and remains untested; it features a new Boddy containing 2.1mm tube within.

Numerous filament splicer ideas exist to join filament ends together and eradicate the flashing that ensues.

One of the biggest challenges with creating an in-situ splicer is getting the two pieces to meet up without bending or distorting the filament. ...You might consider trying TrustFm's technique for heat welding, which overcomes this issue and provides a...

This is a remix from RoboHart's VIT SPORT Filament Splicer. ...(https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5233832) The files are all original but I have corrected the size.

I designed a revolutionary filament splicer that harnesses the warmth of a candle to precision-sew together your threads with ease and accuracy.

:-) Finally repair the filament during operation and continue printing. Combine leftovers and whatever your heart desires. The idea comes from fiber optic technique, splicing! In the photo gallery many pictures are, I believe, much to explain. Here...

Ultrasonic welding is an efficient method for splicing plastic filaments, offering several advantages over traditional techniques. The ideal ultrasonic welder operates within a frequency range of 15-70 kHz, often found in common household items like...

... Please check out the guide from trustfm how to use the jig: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:977156 Print Settings: Material: PETG (I think PLA would be to brittle) Temp: 230°C Nozzle 90°C Bed Infill: 30% Supports: No Bed Adhesion: None/Skirt

I struggled to find a filament splicer, so I created my own design. Remarkably, it functions well! This device joins filament ends by heating them and pushing them through a PTFE tube while still hot and pliable. The result is an effective bond with...

The updated Splicer tool features enhanced portability and improved splicing capabilities for 3mm PLA filaments. The previous version had limitations such as being less portable and requiring filament passage through the entire device for removal. To...

Dear All, It's a handy tool for transforming raw iron wire into a functional splicer. ...Simply pass the metal wire through the central opening and then thread it through both holes, one at a time.

AUTO FILAMENT SPLICER (AFS V1) USING YOUR 3D BOWDEN PRINTER (e.g. Ender 3/PRO) (see also optional AFS V2 below, as late addition) I have searched for various filament splicer projects and watched numerous videos, but I couldn't find any that...

The filament splicer works great but as a further refinement I glued 2 side guides which improved alignment of the filament. ...The size of the guides are 30 x 10 x 3mm.I printed this using PLA, (normal settings) and it works just great.Thank you...

Hi, This is my filament splicer/joiner that I designed for the purpose of consuming entire rolls of filament and also enabling multi-color prints. I also made a spool holder to clamp to my desk. Splicer will fit desks up to 30mm and the roll...

Simply took DR2D's excellent design and made the holes smaller so I could use a piece of filament as a hinge pin. ...You need 2x of the [HINGE] part.

I applied the clever technique from that YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyMvT61mYPY) to merge filament pieces together, but I was missing a 1.75mm teflon tube so I created one myself. A customized version of...
