Not all physical disabilities are visible.
Not all people have neurotypical minds.
Some genetic differences cause both.
Diversity of mind is why you possess the underpinning tech to watch this video. A competitive dash to electric transport is underway, and we have a fair chance of colonising Mars.
You'd be shocked at how many aspects of your 3D printer were conceived by neurodivergent people.
That includes the prevalent E3D-v4/5/6 style of all metal hotends and myself.
"The greats weren't great because at birth they could paint, the greats we great because they paint a lot"
I wasn't born with a magical hotend design wonder gift. I'm blessed and cursed such that in almost every waking moment, my mind is involuntarily consumed by thinking about hotends. I fucking love hotends. So much so that patient kind people members of Team E3D are appointed to make sure I remember to eat, drink, and take my medication. Otherwise I collapse and or have seizures.
Outwardly it makes me seem a more than just a little quirky and eccentric.
Physically it means that standing upright for 12 hours is totally unbearable agony, which needs be to controlled too.
Revo isn't just me, far from it, but I'm proud to say that we have an awesome team brimming with neurodiversity. Not just in the Revo Engineering team either.
Anyone in at team E3D knows this is just the straight up almost too honest representation of who I am, all day, every day.
I am hell-bent on improving the ability of humanity to manufacture goods. The ability to use tools to manipulate the world around us is one of, if not the most, defining features of what makes us human. I can think of nothing better to dedicate my life to.
I know that you're probably just having fun in good faith. I know I'm a bit of a character and for sure enjoy having a bit of a camera persona.
But it pains me that on multiple videos where I'm in agony, but so excited to be announcing what I hope are valuable contributions to manufacturing that I put on a smile and do my best. But I can only do this in my quirky little eccentric way.
After the show I spent 2 days at a hotel resting near the event because it was so draining and painful. Once done sleeping I get on TH-cam, nervously excited to read what people think in the comments.
This is the first comment. Years of work by a team of incredible people pushing themselves to the limits. Overshadowed by this shit again. My heart sinks, and someone was cutting onions or something. I feel like I've let down my entire team.
The first proto-humans to fashion and use a tool probably got mocked by their peers too for being different. In relative terms I expect they would be considered neurodivergent too.
I'd like to hope/think we've evolved a bit since then.
Sanjay, you are my favorite 3D printer guy to watch! You have an amazing passion and insight. Please accept my Love and Respect.
To be clear, this is a copypaste of a comment buried deep in another thread, which is why it reads slightly out of place; it's in response to the comments where folks (almost certainly in good-natured fun) speculate as to whether I'm under the influence.
You’re awesome, man. As a fellow ND, I’ll be sure to buy the hell outta these REVOs, can’t wait :D
Thank you for clarifying this ! Respect !
Hey Sanjay, are one of my idols, not only for your achievements and vison, but also because you and your company are an inspiration to neurodiverse people like me. It pains me to see such a moment of your success to be overshadowed by this kind of comments, those people shouldn't get more attention from you then absolutely necessary. They don't want to or can't understand your efforts and achievements, but there are enough people who do.
Please have a wonderful day, be proud of your work and I can't wait to try out the next level of your products!
I find it impossible to imagine Sanjay not being around these anymore. The world has truly lost an absolute wonder of a human. His infectious enthusiasm and inspiring dedication will be forever cemented in this community.
Rest in peace Sanjay. I loved you and your passion for 3D printing. You were a shining star. My deepest condolences to your family.
I'm weeping open tears at my desk right now because I just learned of Sanjay Mortimers death. I loved this guy and the energy he brought. I literally dreamed of working for him. I dont even know what else to say even though I feel like I have so much to say in respect for him.
I could listen to Sanjay all day, great hearing someone so passionate about what they do.
Gut says this is the Mk4 hot end and Prusa finger prints are all over it.
i watched the prusa live and it seems like they have not tested it as the live event looked like
@@mattmeyer6471 I can't comment on Prusa themselves testing it, but having been a beta tester for this thing, I can very much confirm it's a drop-in replacement for the V6 on a Prusa MK3, and works just fine
Worst comes to worst, you'll need to run an entirely automatic PID tune if your temps aren't what you're expecting, but I did anyways just to be sure and have literally never seen more stable nozzle temps in my life before
@@WannabeSpaceman great to know.
As a disabled person (only one arm/hand), I appreciate the thoughtfulness of Sanjay and E3D on the Revo a great deal. I'm so sad that such a visionary is gone.
What a legend! Sadly learning of him posthumously. Look after each other, please people. We're all in this together.
What an enjoyable person with passion for what he is doing. Really great video, gonna enjoy trying these out when they are in stock. Thank you.
RIP Sanjay, an FDM 3D printing legend :’-(
Sanjay was such a brilliant engineer with a lovely personality. I wish I'd gotten the opportunity to meet him. Thank you for the video 💜
Sanjay and the E3D team never cease to amaze me! Vive La E3D!
Great interview. Sanjay! I couldn't remember his name and I wanted to say hi when I saw him but I got all shy hahaha. Loved the #E3D stand and Revo. Got my little E3D printed logo (new branding!) made on the #ToolChanger. It was mesmerising to watch that up close at last. The best thing about #TCT3sixty was the tech support and firsthand knowledge from the guys who are making this industry happen. Thanks V3D, I was surprised I hadn't subscribed already, done.
I saw some prototypes few years ago and I knew that it will be huge REVOlution on the field of extruder market. Congratulation E3D!
It did not make you seem eccentric, it made you seem lovely, it made everyone want to spend time with you to get a glimpse on your thoughts and ideas.
Without knowing you I guess you have been understood and appreciated a lot more than you knew.
This is very sad, but it is beautiful that you were around. Please take care of each other, seriously.
I can feel Slice and China already drooling over all this!
It's a ceramic coil heater not rocket science..
@@DOGMA1138 - It's rocket science to properly design the containment and control it so it does melt down everything. This ain't new tech.
Well done, E3D!! Wish you all the best!
Looks like some great stuff coming out from E3D!
Really looking forward to this.
Excellent content!
Thanks 😀
Looking forward to these.
I exclusively own E3D on all of my printers. This upgrade looks spectacular! I appreciate all the engineering from E3D so much and I look forward to using the new products.
I'm excited to finally see PTC heating element in 3D printing. It adds inherent safety much needed with this technology - relying purely on software is too dangerous, as there are too many things that could go wrong.
I love Mister Sanjay and his vision.
As a severly colorblind person, thank you for this.
Me too, it just shows the extent of detail he puts in to his work and designs. Inspirational.
Looking good. No messing with thermal mediums or hot parts while swapping.
Defiantly something im going to look in to buy when the reno comes out.
Pretty excited for this
looks great, really want one of those lightweight hemera's.
Really can't wait for this. Currently have to rely on the old Ultimaker 3 for this capability which has been costly.
Exciting!
I'm pretty excited about this
Very informative. I use stock nozzles in my CR-10S but going to do a massive upgrade from extruder all the way up and will be looking to purchased E3D products
First thing I did with my cr10 now the only thing left of my cr10 is the metal frame lol
It's a bug,
"what if I make this better, before you know it you have a unique printer that's yours "
Great Design
Looking promising :-)
I need this. I don't just need this. I NEEED This!
What a sad indictment of human nature it is that Sanjay should have felt compelled to make his statement. Social media brings out the worst in human nature, and has a lot to answer for in today's messed up world.
I truly admire Sanjay and his company for what they have collectively achieved, and for their continuing contribution to the 3D printing world/industry. I had the pleasure of taking part in the Revo beta test programme, and Sanjay and the team can be justifiably proud of the product they've designed and delivered.
So please ignore the negative comments here Sanjay, and carry on the good work!

Looking forward to the lightweight Hemera Revo. That's been my only reservation coming from a BIQU H2 which is super light.
super tek true next gen...i hope the prices reflects the happyness on sanjay s face
as the pnp is somethink to look into
Cool idea. I really hate changing nozzles. To many wires down there to hold the heater block in place so I can unscrew the nozzle. Since the block moves, zero will changed as well. What a pain.
Hope the new system will get rid of this.
The attention to detail is just incredible, choosing colors for maximum inclusiveness is just another level, really cool
I want more........MORE!!!!!!!!
I want these on my prusa mini, quick change is the thing I wanted from day 1.
Ok this sounds super cool, but i have questions:
1- are there any gains in terms of performance compared to V6's?
2- do this new design cause higher thermal stability?
3- higher temperatures? what is the range?
4- am i right to think that there will be a version with your new copper nozzles with the ultimate coating on it?
5- what is the aproximate release period? new year 2022?
6- is it lighter than older hotends?
7- with this super slick all metal filament path and higher heat transfer efficiency, can we expect faster flowrate, or retractions?
8- perhaps more uniform fluid distribution in the heat zone/nozzle (by fluid i mean molten plastic), so more predictable/quantifiable flow, for linear advance and klipper magic?
9- after termal cycling, won't the nozzle/filament part thinggy get stuck, will it still be possible to unscrew by hand?
10- how does it interact with the toolchanger platform, is this a way to bring a "toolchanging lite" to more users (as in, the most frequent tool changing i would do would be swapping nozzle sizes, probably the same as most, this seems a sufficient solution for that)
I will stop here, i think that it is already a bit much :)
I wonder if this will prompt some evolutions in the software where you can add a toolchange to your gcode to finish the top of a print with fine details for instance, as you'd do with a cnc
This looks very awesome.
Did you happen to ask about high flow?
Can't really scale like he is talking about with out high flow nozzles.
RIP Sanjay. Once a great, now a legend.
R.I.P Sanjay you will be missed
Sick I will buy this 100%
I love Howard's explanations., can't wait to see Sheldon's one!
I think someone has got to build an automatic nozzle changer now!
Dammit, Sanjay. I'm just glad there is no more pain. As for the rest of us cave people, we will continue the tradition of making tools. As it should be.
I hope their metal bonding lends itself to hardened nozzles too.
this is great
When your looking for details on a product and its sprinkled into a lecture and you forget why your watching
I laughed out loud at Sanjay’s rolling eyes at the tannoy announcement. He did well holding it together when presumably he’d just come out of a launch junket. His body gave him away though. Priceless. He won’t live this down in the office .
what he said made sense .
However - if designed to be interchangeable as he says like in a machine shop - you’d be laughed at if you couldn’t change tools swiftly - if that analogy holds - why have a tool that is screwed in? You’d be laughed at in a machine shop if you had to screw in every cutting bit and didn’t use a Chuck 30 seconds is a lot of overhead potentially on every job … if indeed it is for high volume production … it feels like they’ve added this interpretation after the design, as it doesn’t work like a quick change tool in a machine shop, albeit its way closer than the existing systems - and “good enough” is good enough to give a marketing advantage - but this leaves the door open for a quick change mechanism that changes in under 5 seconds …
I’m still amazed at their positioning themselves as the cheap mass producer. Well done to them if they can continue to do this profitably - but it’s not an easy path to tread.
The hemera suffered from friction fitting a component in an “eye popping” design decision which led to lots of cracks, it looked scary to me to do in production as the size of the components meant they were always on the jagged edge of creating forces to hold the component - whilst not exceeding the material properties . Having to go down a rabbit hole of exotic alloys to solve the naive design decision could not have been easy or cheap. I wonder if they’ve upped their game Re designing for manufacture this time ? I hope so - as they are likeable - work hard and are serious about trying to deliver good quality products, and deserve to continue succeeding in a fast moving industry.
I hope this does well for them.
You hit the hemera issue head on. They are quite young and make some mistakes that experience would solve, but i appreciate their scientific approach and guarantee to fix it. The data tracking is also a fantastic thing to see. Keeps everyone from e3d to the consumer accountable.
They should have investigated a lock similar to a collet taper but using a ball bearing air fitting style retention system.
The biggest thing i would be afraid of are thermal conductivity problems. Threads are considerably more efficiency at transmitting heat than a slip fit bore approach. It'll be interesting to see if someone adapts the system to be faster or not.
Think this is meant more for users who are on a budget. They already have a tool changer setup which addresses the need for speed.
If you are looking for a toolchange in a few seconds (and automated at that) then they do make something literally called the toolchanger if you didn't know already. For AM production environments, high automation is where it is headed so the toolchanger is more suitable for that environment, especially when we start adding subtractive and other tools.
I am guessing the chuck is an analogy for tool change speed, since a chuck would not be appropriate for a nozzle swap for many reasons (thermal contact, weight, complexity, unnecessary due to standardisation of filament sizes). For current print farm applications, 30 seconds is nothing compared to the overall part print time of a full print plate. Also if you are changing the nozzle between each print on a print farm then you are doing it wrong. You will be typically printing the same file many times for efficient batch production. If you need different size nozzles then it is best for separate printers to stick to certain nozzle sizes for a batch, changing the nozzles on printers only when necessary.
If you are changing nozzles often e.g. in a prototyping environment, that is a different market where minimising every second of manufacturing process is not critical. But this is still an improvement over previous designs in that regard.
Compared to older designs, 30 seconds for a nozzle swap is excellent where you would previously need to hot tighten the nozzle. This also infers a higher reliability for the nozzle at high temperatures, since it is unlikely to loosen due to thermal effects (I am guessing they have designed it such that it locks at higher temperatures, possibly with thermal expansion coefficients). Also consider the stage of maturity of FDM technology, we will certainly have better options in future as did machining as the technology developed.
Also consider that this product is aimed at pretty much the entire FDM market, including home users, where again lightning fast nozzle changes is not super critical, but accessibility is. Nozzle swapping is an order of magnitude faster with this design, and easier. I would describe myself as an experienced 3D printer user with a lot of custom upgrades to my printer, but I have basically never bothered changing my nozzle unless I had to due to the hassle. This totally changes that for me. I would actually consider using larger nozzles (or smaller nozzles) for larger objects or mechanical objects such as brackets (although I typically don't print large things anyway).
Most objects to download through thingiverse are designed and printed with 0.4mm nozzles, precisely because of the hassle of changing them for most people, this will begin to change that I think. That is exactly the type of thing Sanjay was talking about in the video.
Edit: Also just off the top of my head idea, a custom hand drill adapter for (un)threading the nozzle would be a simple improvement in speed.
Lol. How long do your printer nozzle changes take now?
Good work, Big Head! :D
Would their special thermal compound be needed when swapping nozzles? Or no thermal compound is necessary?
No compound needed just a straight swap, unscrew one and screw the other in. It's honestly that simple
More nozzle material choices for abrasive filaments I assume will be down the road? Also the heater/thermistor/heater block assembly is all a single unit we don't service other than replacing correct?
We'd be pretty silly to go all launchy with a fancy new hotend and not have something other than brass coming along. We just have this thing we do; not announce a product that hasn't been proven to work.
@@SanjayMortimer I don't expect you to be able to comment on this request other than a blanket "No!" or a wishy washy "yeah, that might be nice" because of the above reason. ;-) But, I hope that you consider a line of REVO nozzles with tungsten carbide (not tungsten metal) nozzle ends. Spool3D in Canada and 3DMakerEngineering here in the US make excellent TC nozzles, maybe you can contract with one (or both) of them to make the nozzle part that you then attach to the rest of the REVO nozzle assembly. I've been really happy with mine from Spool3D in my V6 on my MK3S. I don't need to think about what type of nozzle I have on the machine when I grab either the glow in the dark filament or carbon fiber filled HTPLA from ProtoPasta and not have to worry about wearing out my nozzle. Because the thermal conductivity of TC is much closer to brass than hardened steel, I can continue to use the temperature profiles that I calibrated for when I was using a brass nozzle and filament manufacturer suggestions based on brass nozzles. Now the only time I change a nozzle is to change the orifice size (and those are also Spool3D TC nozzles).
Wish they did round block for existing v6, volcano and super volcano nozzles
this system could be a good possibility for an automated nozzle size changer
damn digidy, that is really exciting, especially with the strain relief and that the built in material that can potentially burn at over 600 degrees...wow china will have an issue replicating this....best bit is bringing the nozzle x and copper material into this form factor..... hopefully E3d can bring in the 50w @24v setup cuase 30w is slow and defeats any point for the enduser to swap out the nozzle for anything bigger
when is the hi temp one coming out?
Is that revo nozzle will be complicated to clean in case of a clogged nozzle or throat?
The threads are up in the cold end, and it self tensions with the spring. So it ought to be easy to remove when clogged. The entire transition from cold to hot takes place in the nozzle.
My usual strategy for cleaning is to heat the nozzle with a torch, and toss it into ethanol while hot.
Not sure the colored part will hold up to this treatment...
Yeah, that might be an issue.
Recently had to disassemble my whole hotend as I messed up unloading filament (got stuck and cooled in the heatbreak).
Not possible with these.
Also more expensive to replace if you wear down the nozzle.
But the concept still seems quite interesting
I've seen some people poo-pooing the Revo system. I for one am excited try it out. If it allows for swapping nozzles and not having to fiddle z offset...that would be game changing.
That already exists on Voron 3D printers.
In short: make Z endstop into a big metal button and press it with the nozzle while its hot. Perfect Z offset every time.
Can my current hemera be converted to the quick change tips and hotend? When will REVO be released? Thanks
i've used the revo on my "normal" hemera on the beta phase.
E3D FTW !!!!!!
Great work !
Very nice I want to know if they are going to produce a supervolcano variant?
I'm curious about wether you have to tune the Z offset every change.
All nozzles are the same length I think, pretty sure this was covered in a conversation I had at some point just not in the video
Pretty sure that was a James Bruton cameo in the intro
4:32: Copper-base nozzle with steel insert (abrasion resistance?) and "E3DLC" (likely diamond-like carbon) coating. Sign me up
Yeah, but not for revo.this was a Standart Design
@@surfalex2000 for now...
@@celulari true, true. I just bought a hardened nozzle. And would need it fast for the Revo
using DLC coated nozzle on Protoprint Raptor (which is 2 years on market, same principle as this "brand new" E3D with patent pending) and it works really well.
Do I need to replace entire hemera to use REVO system or I only need to replace seme parts of it?
The die-cast part will need to be swapped for correct Revo use. It should mostly work without, but won't be a supported configuration as obviously there will be no mount for the top of the spring.
@@Vector3DP but that isn't a big issue. yeah, it's annoying that the heater is not in place while changing the nozzle, but it can work
what are the plans for us runnig titan aero?
Great system. Which printer is shown at 3:30 ?
E3D Toolchanger
I need this now, 😗
Hope the new Prusa XL has this already ;)
I wish they said more about flow rate and volcano models
You notice obXidian nozzle in the background?
Will I be able to plug the revo into my existing stable of hemeras? The screw in part looks pretty much the same in the video.
There is a very small part at the base of the hemera that allows the heater to clip onto it. This makes the original hemera incompatible. However, you can technically use it just fine, its just a little less safe as the heater is not attached fully so e3d wont be supporting it. AFAIK a replacement heatsink part will be available as an addition, I don't know the cost.
@@Vector3DP Just as a wee bit of follow-up clarification: are you saying that a replacement heatsink part for the existing Hemera will be available that then makes the Revo usable on the current Hemera? (so the replacement heatsink part allows it to be attached fully?)
If i've remembered things correctly, yes.
@@Vector3DP awesomesauce.
@@Vector3DP so it sounds like I can use it but will have to hold the heater in place manually when the nozzle is unscrewed?
I really want to talk to Sanjay sometime in the future. I am a poor piss electronics engineer, but listening to him makes me want to pickup mechanics :(
Well, good luck with that now bud - he checked out
I see a BIG E3D order in my future.
buy original, not this cheap copy ... they steel patent pending prototype
@@KarelFunda From who? Libelous accusations of that nature can get you in serious trouble.
@@klschofield71 seems Karel probably means, that they knocked-off Protoprint hotend, but neither E3D or Protoprint has patent existing on this, the only what was revealed is actual screen of application, which doesn´t mean anything
@@klschofield71 From protoprint raptor - same ceramic heater, same nozzle with integrated heat break, same system for changing tool easily. But yeah, E3D put there color ring :-D that's really innovative approach.
RIP Sanjay
2:48 Look like tiny drill bits, colours
It's like they taken Hakko ceramic heater soldering iron tech and turned it inside out. Hakko is ceramic heater and sensor core inside of Metal soldering tip. Revo is metal nozzle core surrounded by ceramic heater and sensor. Brilliant design and efficiency.
0:26 I'm imagining it went like this:
Sanjay in front of a mirror: You're fired!
Sanjay: you cant fire me I quit!
You're right, just nobody knew that when he said I quit he was talking about life...
Rest in peace Sanjay
This will sell like hotcakes.
Sanjay, PLEASE replace the t-slots on the Hemera with simple threaded holes.. I'm begging you! =) Still time to do it before the Hemera Revo is finalized...
You're going to need to hire a spirit medium or an Ouija board to get that request to him now it seems
I Can't wait to get my hands on these. Anyone, Pls correct me if I am wrong. In a scenario when we change one nozzle to another, some filament residue will always be at the tip area of the nozzle? And even if I retracted the filament before cooling down? I think we have to prudge the nozzle every change then 🤔
But that's the case with normal nozzles anyway. I think the main benefit here is that there can never be plastic leaking between the nozzle and the hot block, since it is a smooth bore chamber up into the cold end. Getting burned plastic between the nozzle and the heater can cause friction and under extrusion that is harder to diagnose. I'm more worried about how expensive the nozzles themselves will be when they wear down. If a set of 4 nozzle sizes becomes $100, then suddenly nozzle wear is very expensive.
@@dunkeroni I also hope too, and they make harden steel nozzles. At least it is not like some 300$ hot end😁
Have you not mastered or learned the skill of the " Cold Pull" yet? this was 2 years ago so you prob know how to do this buy now but just in case... if you need to change something and have filament still in the hotend connected.. Start the hotend heating up to normal printing temps of whatever filament is currently installed that you wish to remove.. If PLA have the filament in on hand and your other hand on the extruder manipulating the spring/filament tensioner. Soon as the temps cross over 140c start pulling the filament out of the extruder/hotend from the top. Around 145-155 depending on the manufacturer that's when PLA will just barley be hot enough to let you pull all 100% of the filament out of the entire print head backwards from how you feed it in... BOOM, No more filament stuck in the hotend / nozzle it all comes out with the cold pull
Would like to know what the flow rate will be. I hope its more than the V6, but how much more would be interesting.
Peak flow rate will be between the v6 and volcano according to e3d and the slight increase in the hot length compared to the v6 suggests this would be correct.
@@Vector3DP cool thank you very much for collecting that information! =)
@@Vector3DP you know why the marketing material said 600 mm^3/min ie. 10 mm^3/s then? Because i had never been so disappointed in my life :(
@@miklschmidt Being conservative - there's lots and lots of different polymers out there, some with pretty low meltflow rates.
@@MrTimElmore that’s beyond conservative. They need to add some details about flow rates and testing methodology because so far this is one of the most underwhelming hotend reveals i’ve seen in a while. Hopefully more information will be available soon, so far i’m not seeing how this can compete with the exceptional high flow offers currently on the market, which prints slow just as well as they print fast.
RIP Sanjay :(
I printed high-temp abrasives, so I won't be able to start with Revo on the ground floor, but I'll certainly be paying attention. Great work to all at E3D.
I saw this nozzle on a shorts video a few days ago and was not a fan due to the proprietary nozzle and knowing that companies who do that thing usually put a hefty price tag on it. Assuming their website doesn't change, they are claiming it's only going to cost $120USD for the hot end and the entire nozzle set. Pretty fair price for what's on offer, so I think my mind is changed.
Its $120 for hot end block, hot end heat sink, heater and 300c Thermistor and 4 top of the market nozzles. The Dragon is what $100 for just the hot end block and heat sink and one questionable nozzle, while the Slice Mosquito is $200 without a nozzle...lol. All in its at least half the price of the competition.
@@backgammonbacon Yeah, I was just sceptical of the whole patented only E3D thing, but after seeing the interview and doing a bit of reading I've changed my mind about it. It really is a great thing that I'm excited to get my hands on when it releases.
Just goes to show, always do your research before judging !
Making hotends that cost more than the most popular printers doesn't really make much sense. We're not here to be special purpose high end boutique hotend makers.
We're trying to go Qualcomm Snapdragon, Samsung Exynos, etc. Good, not the cheapest Allwinner chip, but the one you choose because it's the right price and performance.
can you change nozzles while hot without tools? Does the rubber cover prevent you from getting burned in that case? this guy is hilarious!
you will burn your fingers
Nope you were wrong, you can use your fingers @@celulari
@@TallynTech Yeah, use your fingers to unscrew a nozzle at 220°C and then tell me i'm wrong
as the sound and picture fade to black they start to talk the real opsec stuff
This is actually making me start regretting my decision to get a mosquito
The revo can heat up to 240 °C in 1 minute... and it's just a 40W heater. i can print with it at 200 mm/s on PLA with no underextrusion. the revo is amazing
@@celulari okay, that was helpful info, but makes me regret the mosquito more
I belly laughed @ 6:58
E3D Sanjay
Its a wild wild west out there!!! Lol
Need to ask, if the Revo nozzle is removed, inserted and tighten by hand.
While filament is being pushed through, what will stop this Revo from
loosening and creeping out. Any vibration has the ability to unscrew the Revo
if the Revo is not tight during installation? Changing the trammed height in the process!
The spring that pushes the block into the nozzle applies tension on the nozzle which prevents the threads from loosening (this is an educated guess). It's been tested for months so we know it doesn't come loose, I just don't know how exactly.
@@Vector3DP That actually makes much more sense, and I do agree that the tension created by the spring would reduce the chance of the nozzle from working loose. As I have not used the system, I was unaware of the spring, coming into affect. Thank you for pointing that out.
what i like to know is the meltrate
The flowrate is expected to be between v6 and volcano as the melt zone is just a little longer than v6.
I'll be testing when I get one.
Interesting. My Flashforge Creator 3 has a very similar type of heater cartridge on its two nozzles (and no heater 'block'). Not the same I'm sure, but very similar, so the concept itself is not new, but the construction looks to be superior!
