[EN] Instructions : The filament runout sensor is a very popular accessory, but unfortunately, it's often completely useless. The filament is usually attached to the spool, and its end will never pass through the sensor. This situation can be compared to a tangled mess... The Smart Spool Holder and its accessories will really detect the end of the filament (free or attached to the spool), and filament tangles. It will also make filament loading/unloading easier and add an adjustable X endstop. Here's a very simple and obvious solution to a complex problem that inspired many over-engineered designs. However, since reinventing the wheel is my favorite hobby, this concept may already exist. But Google didn't bring it to me... You'll need: 1x M8x45 screw 1x M8 washer 1x M6x30 cap screw 1x M6x25 countersunk screw 1x M8 Nylock nut 2x M6 Nylock nuts 4x M3x6 screws 4x M3x12 screws 4x M3 washers 1x M5x6 screw 1x M5 hammer nut 210mm Teflon tubing 1200mm 2-wire cable with Dupont female connector Drill bits: 2mm and 4mm 2x KW12-3 microswitches [FR] instructions : Le détecteur de fin de filament est un accessoire très populaire, mais malheureusement, il est souvent complètement inutile. Le filament est généralement attaché à la bobine, et son extrémité ne passera jamais dans le détecteur. Cette situation peut être comparée à un enchevêtrement... Le "Smart spool Holder" et ses accessoires détectent vraiment la fin du filament (libre ou attachée au rouleau), et les enchevêtrements. Il facilite aussi le chargement / déchargement, et offre une fin de course ajustable en X. Voici une solution très simple et évidente à un problème complexe qui a inspiré beaucoup de conceptions bien trop techniques. Ceci dit, la réinvention de la roue étant mon hobby favori, ce concept existe peut-être déjà. Mais Google ne me l'a pas remonté...
