D.E.I.S.S. Dual Extruder Interfacing Single Stepper (Robo3D)

thingiverse

The single-motor dual extruder known as DEISS offers a revolutionary solution by combining the functions of two stepper motors with just one RC servo motor, thus achieving remarkable efficiency and space saving capabilities. In addition to this feat, DEISS is only slightly larger than its traditional counterpart, Wade Extruder. The versatility of DEISS extends far beyond its design; it is capable of supporting a wide variety of filaments including PTFE tube driven ABS or PLA. DEISS was primarily designed for the Robo3D printer but with slight modifications, it can be integrated into numerous printers using an adapted x-carriage system. This guide will serve as a comprehensive manual detailing the assembly process of DEISS and its successful integration into a Robo3D printer setup. Furthermore, a necessary firmware adjustment is also discussed in order to utilize this cutting-edge technology. Note: Due to the new nature of DEISS, existing Marlin firmware has yet to accommodate these adjustments, but this guide carefully outlines all the changes required for seamless implementation. **Important Disclaimer:** The creator is not liable for any damages resulting from improper assembly or integration. As with all experimental projects, proceed at your own risk. **DEISS Features:** • **Direct Drive Dual Extrusion:** Achieve unmatched precision and accuracy with the power of two combined motors. • **Fully Printable Body:** Showcase your expertise by printing this body on demand using available designs. • **Compact Setup:** Compare favorably with traditional Wade extruder in terms of size. • **Lightweight Mass:** Enjoy the reduced mass resulting from single-motor operation, promoting faster and smoother movements. • **Nozzle Level Mechanism:** Stay level with precision-controlled nozzles ensuring accurate results. • **Quick Extruder Change:** Switch effortlessly between various filaments for an optimal creative flow experience. Plus support flexible filament usage as well.
