Simple Filament Sensor for Titan Extruders (Tevo Tornado)

thingiverse

2018-09-22 - V.5 with cable management added support (6 holes) for cable ties so that cables stay neatly in place rather than floating aimlessly in the air 2018-09-15 - V.5 2nd hole near the extruder was enlarged due to compatibility issues reported by one user; personally, I use V.4 which fits perfectly on my extruder/tevo 2018-09-08 - V.4 I've made some structural adjustments to significantly increase body strength. This is a simplified version of this (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3046489) filament sensor. See the "thing" in action : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jN_g3Evhcc ! Following parts are needed : 1x KW12-3 PCB switch 2x M3 x 20 screws 2x M3 nuts (optional) If needed, replace extruder M3 screws with ones about 1.5-2 mm longer. Visit dvilleneuve's page and see wiring video and instructions for the KW12-3 PCB switch.
