Filament FAULT sensor - REMIX - Tangle and/or Runout

prusaprinters

<p>This is a REMIX and enhancement to the Filament FAULT detector by re-NABLE.</p> <p>re-NABLE's design is good, but I had a couple minor issues:</p> <ol> <li><p>I wanted to integrate it into a heated dry box: <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2778707">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2778707</a> The re-NABLE "bracket" did not work with the spool holders I already printed.</p> </li> <li><p>I noticed binding of the filament though the lever. Adding a length of PTFE tubing reduced friction</p> </li> <li><p>I wanted to use a stock of my existing roller micro switches and they did not fit into the re-NABLE box.</p> </li> <li><p>There wasn't a sufficient "parts list" or documentation in the re-NABLE build.</p> </li> </ol> <p>Something I noticed while remodeling items was when using a roller switch, the sensor acted only as a "Tangle Sensor". Since I have a filament run-out sensor near my Bowden extruder I was fine with this.</p> <p>FULL documentation is now in the Thing Files!</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Anet A8</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.1mm to 0.2mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>70%</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> 3D Solutech PLA <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>70% infill should be used on the Box and Lever part.<br/> 35% infill should be suitable enough for the Bracket parts. <p>The two brackets that need supports - go with:</p> <ul> <li>Support Placement: Everywhere</li> <li>Support Pattern: Zig Zag</li> <li>Support Z Distance: 0.2mm</li> <li>Enable Support Interface</li> <li>Support Interface Thickness: 1.5mm</li> <li>Support Interface Resolution: 0.2mm</li> <li>Support Interface Density: 50%</li> <li>Support Interface Pattern: Lines</li> </ul> </p></div></p></p> Category: 3D Printer Accessories
