Direct Geared Belted Extruder V2 - 1,75mm

Direct Geared Belted Extruder V2 - for 1,75mm If you're searching for a bowden version, head over to my Belted Extruder v.3 for 1.75 instead. Changes from V1 I rotated the Extruder 90 degrees to face forward instead of leftward. Some users experienced issues with the original model hitting Z-rods; I created spacers as a solution, but V2 eliminates this problem entirely. New X-Carriage for V2 You'll need my remixed X-Carriage for V2 to assemble the Direct Geared Belted Extruder. Insert m3 nuts into the two parts. Assemble the rest and ensure the m3 screws are flush with the bottom of the Spring-frame. Choosing stepper motor This can be a complex step in itself. I'm using a 0.9 degree Nema 17 on a 32bit 24v platform, which works nicely. If you're using a 12v platform and especially an Arduino Mega or other 8bit controller, look into a 1.8 degree motor instead.
