Large capacity hopper for Filabot EX2 with Lid

thingiverse

This is a massive capacity pellet hopper designed specifically for attachment to the Filabot EX2, capable of holding around 3 kilograms of pellets. I fabricated mine using hatchbox orange PLA and then sanded the interior surface (my retraction settings were off, resulting in an excessive buildup of filament residue on the inside). To secure the hopper to the EX2, apply a layer of 3M double-sided tape cut to match the profile of the mounting area. This will not only provide a snug fit but also create a sleek appearance when printed in orange. The design ensures that the footprint clears the bolts, giving the overall setup a clean and streamlined look. A detachable lid is included to prevent dirt and debris from entering the hopper. This pellet hopper has been thoroughly tested on an EX2 and has proven to be highly effective, successfully feeding pellets of various sizes with only four granules experiencing difficulties due to their size.
