Nimble V1 Robo3D quick release mount

thingiverse

This is a design concept for a swift release mechanism that will fit seamlessly onto a printer like the Robo3D to mount an E3D V6 using the nimble extruder. The quick-release mechanism simplifies the process of mounting and unmounting the hot end by utilizing a rotating wedge that clamps the Nimble base plate firmly against the back wedge. The wedge is precision-engineered to lock the base plate in two distinct directions, providing optimal stability. Edit: The Cam Clamp and the Nimble Mount plate have been fine-tuned and now fit perfectly on the Robo3D X carriage as designed by lurkinturtle. (Kudos to him for an outstanding job!) Robo3D R1 Full carriage The Back Wedge plate requires 3 mm holes to be drilled into the X Carriage. The front Cam Clamp can be secured using the existing 4 mm hole. The Nimble Extruder The nimble extruder boasts an installed weight of less than 27 grams on your carriage/effector, making it the smallest and lightest extruder available for purchase. With ample torque, it can be mounted in multiple orientations. The nimble extruder is available from Zesty Technology.
