Type A Machines Flexion Dual Extruder Upgrade

thingiverse

I'm mounting a set of brackets to enable Flexion dual extruder setup on my Type A Machines Plywood Series 1 printer. I started by getting one extruder up and running, testing it thoroughly before moving on to installing the second extruder. My fan mounting is still not satisfactory, so that's an ongoing project for me. This modification significantly alters the printer's functionality. To complete this upgrade, you'll need additional hardware and components beyond these parts. Here are some key points to consider: This upgrade offers numerous benefits: • You can reliably use a wider range of materials with your printer. • You can print two materials simultaneously. However, there are also potential drawbacks to keep in mind: • Your usable print area (length, width, and height) will decrease. • Printing with dual extruders requires slower speeds and lower accelerations.
