Printhead controller
youmagine
This is an advanced printhead controller that seamlessly integrates temperature, heater cartridge and fan control directly into the printhead. It receives commands via I2C, allowing numerous printheads to be connected to an electronics mainboard using just one simple two-wire interface. Key objectives include: - Enhancing electronics performance - Reducing the number of wires between the electronics mainboard and the printhead - Simplifying multi-extrusion with multiple extruders The current prototype PCB measures only 24 x 14 mm, making it compact and lightweight enough to be integrated directly into the printhead. Current project status: - Hardware design is at Revision 0 (Prototype) - Prototype has been ordered; assembly and testing are pending - Firmware development has begun Important note: This module is a crucial component of the Nemesis 3D printer, which will soon be released to the public. Integration with Marlin or other platforms is not currently planned, but it can be easily integrated (contact me if you're interested in doing this!). Stay tuned for further updates on this project! This module is still under development...Are you interested in contributing?
