Having built my own from scratch and all the iterations to get it to work well I can clearly see what a great design this is. My main goal for mine was to spend NOTHING. I literally did not have to buy so much a single part for it. I used only what I already had on hand or salvaged from other failed/broken projects. It's about 95% of what I want it to be. I have made a LOT of filament with it and things are starting to show their age so I suspect it is time to consider replacing/upgrading. I have well over 10kg if finished filament itching to be printed and I think this would be perfect...to print off the PET machine from recycled PET.
This lifts my soul, as it was my intentions to give the community a build that felt familiar to us, that also didn't feel like a Frankenstein build. We all start somewhere, as did I. The Recreator3D's goals are to keep our electronics from becoming potential ewaste and our plastic inside out homes! Many community members love to know they can use their bottles back into the pultruder build itself. Look forward to seeing your build. Join the discord or facebook group if you have any questions. Not all the parts need to be printed, depending on how much you want to encase it.
A great idea, I am happy to found that on the internet a few days ago. And now more happy with the assembly video. I have most of the parts, except the extrusions as I already upgraded my Ender 3 pro :)
I know it's been a while and you probably already got your answer but just in case you didn't there is no need to modify the gcode. You only need to swap two of the motor wire. If they are paired A-A+ B-B+ then swap ONE pair so it would be A+A- B-B+. Hope that makes sense. Just use a multimeter on continuity mode and test each pair. When it beeps you know you have a single coil. Just take the pins out of the connector and swap them. That'll reverse the motor direction without needing to modify any code.,

Hello JRT3D With a group of Friends for a class project, we need to recycle plastic using the 3D recreator. The problem is, that we can’t go up with temperature as the system can’t reach 200 degrees and stop at only 40. The problem’s type is E1 and please we Need help on how to fix it. Thanks a lot
Thank you for your information. I have completed the whole process of making the machine and it works perfectly. Now I have the problem that I can't print with the filament made from bottles. It gives me the following error: Nozzle is too lowperature. The printer I have is Ender 3 V2, motherboard 4.2.2 V 1.0.4. My question is: do I have to modify some instructions or update the software? I would appreciate information. Cheers
I have a question from another comment I saw from a different similar video a while back, would it be possible to do 3 thinner strands at once with this method? One of the concerns that was brought up in that comment I saw (and makes sense) is that you don't really get much from ONE bottle at a time, however, if you were to make thinner strands from 3 different bottles you would be able to increase your length of filament by 3x (if you did 1/3 of the single bottle width, longer of course if you did even more thinner strands). My concern would be if you could feed multiple into the nozzle at once and if it would be able to heat it up enough to melt all of them at once?
I like the video love the machine concept only thing is that I'm not sure what i did wrong but my ender 3 was working fine i remove all the part removing cable by cable and reconnect but when i finished everything the stepper motor get stuck i already changes to a different one also different port and do the same any stepper motor move

You show loading the strip into the hotend cold and "easily" going through and then setting the temperature. How are you doing this? Also, I have downloaded the suggested gcode file and see it goes no where near as fast as what is shown in the video

You should be able to get about 1 gram a minute at a slow speed 25-30 grams for a 2L bottle. medium speed is doable and will get you a round 20 minutes per 2L bottle.

A question: Would it be possible to make a spool adapter that could clamp onto existing plastic filament spools and wind the filament back onto it? Otherwise, I'm having a hard time picturing how one would pull the material off the winding spool, and get it onto another? Or do you just manually wind it onto another spool?

Cool idea but you need a good printer to print all the bits and a redundant printer to make the machine, do you use what ever firmware is on the board or do you have to flash something different. 👍
Recreator3D started with an XViCO X3S - that heat sink 100% needs to be drilled out. This carried over into the MK5 simply out of practice. Later with experimenting with the MK6 we found it wasn't needed and keeping the build easier for for novice builders. It may likely help over all, but it's something we've personally stopped doing or sugguesting is 100% needed for proper results.
Yeah, when I tried to pull, the strip was kind of expanding around the lip, therefore not winding. Since I don't have a stemless drill bit like yours, I instead drilled out the lip from the side where the grub screw is nearest to. I will try now@@JRT3D

What is the length of each aluminum profile?
400mm
Cool, but would like to see more off the shelf parts, and a usual dc motor
this is intended to use an old/broken ender 3 thats why it does not have those
well done!
spooler mount screw ender 3 screw... whatever screw size that is...
Do you have to use the 4.2.7 board? I have a few of the 4.2.2 boards laying around? Tha ks
The board doesn't matter, use the one you have, 4.2.2 is perfectly fine
any estimation of power consumption per hour/or bottles/or grams of filament?
I think someone recently said it was about 1/3 of a cent per 25Grams
Hi ! I'm french and I have a little question for you :
What is your gcode file ?
Thank you for your great video !
Really want to do this but the problem is nobody i know drinks soda out of plastic bottles. Have to figure out where I can find some.
2L Soda bottles are an abundance around my neighborhood, but any PET1 bottle will be able to be pultruded. Smart water, 3-5L water jugs. Once you start looking and asking friends, family, and neighbors...you'll be surprised what you'll have access to!
@@joshuartaylor30 Yeah, I asked my dad and he said they have thousands of them in the recycling at the golf course he works at. I should have no problem finding bottles if I try.
Hola buenas tardes , yo cuento con una impresora DMS DP5 y quisiera saber si puedo hacer con esa impresora ?
where do i buy a allready built one?
I really like this project and in the process of printing the parts. I really want to run this with an Arduino Uno R3. I can't bring myself to sacrifice my Ender 3 to build it and have searched everywhere and scratched my head how to build something like this powered by my Arduino. I know DIY FDM printers can be built with arduino brain so Id really like to figure this out. Something gets lost on the way for me and Im not sure how to go about doing it. Any help from the community would be great!
Does it work with a 4.2.2 board?
4.2.2 and 4.2.7 are suggested as the are silent. You'll enjoy the Pultrusion process 100% more with a silent stepper :)
@@JRT3D the only thing I dont get at the video is, using the menu, so as far as I get we must heat the nozzle and then use load filament menu? Or is there a special g code for it
Ser howto full buy mk5kit?

Hi, great video and project. Can i buy an assembled machine? What's the price
hello, good afternoon, I would like to know the cost of your machine and the shipment to Venezuela, thanks
do you sell this already built? don't have the necessary tools to make this
Can you tell me what what material I should use to print the parts.
Thank you
Mostly everything can be printed in PLA - but I suggest PETG/ABS/ASA for the head plate mount - as that will get direct heat among the pull
@@JRT3D thank you. Can you also tell me the infill you use for the parts? Thank you and sorry for all the questions.
@@a.p.z. I use 15% gyroid for most 50% for the head mount
@@JRT3D Thank you very much.
Can you tell me where or how you created yourself as a small (superhero) character?
hi, can I get the G-code for that?

Does it really needed cool down the heat sink? It shouldn't any creep happened =)
No - Cooling on the heat sink isn't needed.
thnx ❤@@JRT3D
YES!! THANK YOU!!!
how many meter/min you can pull?
Unable to open link in description
Fixed it, thanks!
A couple of days ago I asked if I can get the software to indicate the number of meters to extrude. I have the machine practically finished. I am missing the software. Can someone provide it to me? Thank you

Lets see a print!
Over 200+ user submitted examples at our official site :) recreator3d.com/printexamples
Come join the fun!
Now i can use my old 3d printer to be made into this and the V2 for just normal printing
I would love to convert my tevo tarantula pro into one of these
Can this be done with an Ender 3 clone?
Yes
@@JRT3D Do I just need a different screen mount for the Voxelab?
I wants to buy a machine so please price of this machine
Bonjour, pourriez vous me donner les stl de la machine svp
It's in the description
