  • ​@E3DOnline released the REVO "Rapid Change" 3d printing hot end system in September of 2021. Fast forward 9 months and the 3d printing community has a NEW Creality all metal hotend option with the REVO CR from E3D. Let's install this on a Creality Ender 3 3D Printer and Review it!
    This is a bolt-on replacement for the Mk8 Hotends that many Creality machines (and clones) come with. No more conversion mounts to install an E3D V6 (or REVO Six), just bolt on the REVO CR and you are ready to run the "Rapid Change" nozzle system on your 3D Printer.
    Disclosure: This hotend was provided by E3D, no money changed hands and they had no input on this video. These are my own thoughts and feelings and E3D has no bearing on them.

    I've been running a Revo on my Prusa MK3S for a few months now and it's the first time I've really experimented with different nozzle sizes. I'm absolutely loving the freedom without the daunting task of changing a conventional nozzle. I also run an Ender 3 V2 and this video has convinced me to make the Revo CR upgrade, firstly for nozzle size flexibility but with the added bonus of a full metal hotend to print ASA/ABS/PC etc, which I do often with the Prusa. Thanks for the video, it was entertaining and informative. Also call out to Prusa - it would be great to have some preconfigured profiles in PrusaSlicer that are optimised for Revo on both the Prusa and Enders.

    One comment about the nozzle cost; yes, they are expensive, but they come with their own heatbreak. I have been stripping my stock hotend sooo many times, cleaning out plastic that made it up past the break. I’m hoping that will be a thing of the past now…

      My goto recommendation for learning, play with slicing. PrusaSlicer has profiles for various machines (just Vorons and Prusas I think) with different nozzle sizes. Can just use those and see what the different nozzle sizes do for your prints. Play with settings from there. I don’t love Prusa’s settings for flowrates on larger nozzles but they are a good starting place.

    • @MandicReally
      @MandicReally  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The best option that will be a direct bolt on is this Revo CR + the new Revo High Flow nozzles. It’s also pretty pricey.
      There aren’t great bolt on options that will up flow any substantial amount unfortunately. Easiest thing is just put a Bondtech CHT nozzle in your existing Mk8 hotend. It’s a pretty substantial flow improvement.
      That said, cooling will be your issue. The stock part cooling on an Ender 3 is not good. Look into the Hero Me Gen 7 Toolhead setup. That will allow you good cooling options and open a range of hotend / extruder options too.

    I have the revo SIX connect to my Creality Ender 3 Max and Octopus Pro 429 board. The Heater core thermistor seems to go out on me after about 1-2 weeks. I had to replace it 2 times so far. I love the ease of Changing the nozzle. I wish the CR version would have come out at the start. The issue might be that my Room temp keeps changing from 20c to 25c at any givin time of day. So maybe that is the reason for the failure. I am going back and trying my E3D V6 with PT1000 sensor to see if that works better.

    • @MandicReally
      @MandicReally  ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s thoroughly disappointing. I’m hoping that maybe they will come out with a PT1000 equipped heater element. If they deliver higher end nozzles it may be necessary. The Phaetus Rapido can be had with a NT100k or PT1000. I’m a little disappointed the Revo doesn’t have that option.

    The thing that really appeals to me about the REVO is the nozzle, throat, and heat break all being a single unit. I've owned an Ender-5 for about a year, and twice in that time I've had globs-of-doom caused by the nozzle and the heat break not being properly butted together.
    I haven't pulled the trigger yet, though - and one of the reasons for that is I have a MicroSwiss direct drive setup on my Ender-5. I haven't yet been able to figure out if the Revo CR would fit in that setup or not. Any information you have would be most welcome!
    (The other reason is that I have an X1C and that printer is *so* much easier to use, I'm really not sure it's worth sinking another 100$ into the Ender-5.)

    • @MandicReally
      @MandicReally  ปีที่แล้ว

      The Revo CR should fit in place of your MicroSwiss hotend without issue. The microswiss is designed to be a direct MK8 replacement, as is the Revo CR.
      Is it worth it since you own a X1C? I can’t say for you. For me? I’m putting a Revo on my Ender 5 Plus soon. It is so much easier to change nozzle sizes versus the X1 and I want to change sizes frequently for different projects.

      What are you running for retractions? That’s one thing I’ve found (in general, not Revo specifically) to be a clog causer. A lot of folks chase stringing by tuning retractions too far I find. It results in filament going too high into the heatbreak and clogging.

    • @Jacopopsen
      @Jacopopsen ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MandicReally I have kept my original retraction distance of 5mm and a retract/unretract speed of 25 mm/s which i was used to run on my stock Creality hotend. I blamed retraction to be the cause of my issue as well, but when i tried doing prints without retraction disabled i still ended up with clogs.
      I did have a few succesful PLA prints in the beginning with matt PLA (after struggling with layer adhesion issues). Currently i have been trying eagerly with some silky/shiny filament. Do you experience shiny filaments being worse regarding clogging in all metal hotends?
      Any help you provide is greatly appreciated!!

    • @MandicReally
      @MandicReally  ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Jacopopsen shiny filaments usually have lower temps they prefer, in my experience anyway. 5mm of retraction is quite a lot for an all metal hotend. The stock hotend is more forgiving of that as the Teflon tube acts as a bit of an insulator and doesn't rapidly cool off molten filament when it is drawn back into the tube. All metal ones will sink away the heat quicker and allow that molten filament to solidify in weird ways that can lead to clogs. I don't have a single machine that I run over 3mm of retraction on.
      That said I cannot speak to why you'd still be getting clogs with no retraction at all. What brand of filament are you running? Have you check it for consistent diameter? Cheaper brands often have more relaxed tolerance allowances that lead to issues.
      Lastly, what temperatures are you running? As I stated in this video I've found the Revo CR can run a bit cooler temperatures than the stock Creality Mk8 due to its overall design. You may be running into heat creep issues if your temps are just too high for the heatbreak to effectively stop it.

    • @Jacopopsen
      @Jacopopsen ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MandicReally The brand of the filament is a non specific one, because it was purchased as a larger b-stock which as you mentions happens to have a worse tolerance. I measured the filament a few different spots and i got measurements +- 0.05, might have to just decide that filament doesn't run nicely with the machine (Luckily i got a few others that accept it fine).
      Regarding temperature i was used to running 210c, but i also tried running temperature towers on it in the hope of discovering a new better temp. But a combination of bad retractions settings and temperature might have led to that test being worthless, so i should probably try to redo that without retractions or at least a lower value.

      I do Flowrate tuning in Slicer, not on the machine. It is much easier to dial in with the slicer as different parts will likely want different flow rates. If you up "Flow" in the printer menu, everything flows more. Walls, Infill, everything. In the Slicer you can adjust extrusion rates dependent on what is printing.

For a setup like that you'd have to switch to a configuration like my Direct Drive I have in this video, or something like the E3D Hemera which arguably the Sprite Extruder is kind of a knock-off of (concept anyway).

    I can't seem to find the information anywhere, and I know you said no change to the firmware is necessary, but can you start printing at 300° out of the box or do you have to make a change for that?

    • @MandicReally
      @MandicReally  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, the hotend is capable of going that high without issue, but your machine firmware will almost certainly need limits raised. Default limits on Creality machines are usually closed to 260c and 100-105c on the bed.

    Will this work on the Creality CR-M4? Just curious.

    • @MandicReally
      @MandicReally  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No, the CR-M4 uses one of the multiple versions of “sprite extruder” Hotends. Creality has gone a bad way and keeps changing things on every new machine, so aftermarket parts are going to be harder and harder as time goes on.
      E3D does have a “Sprite Revo” setup, but unfortunately it isn’t compatible with the CR-M4 either as Creality made the M4 different than other machines that use the Sprite extruder. I don’t have a machine to test but as far as I know, there isn’t any way to adapt a Revo to it currently.

    Hello will this work with the CR6?

    • @MandicReally
      @MandicReally  ปีที่แล้ว

      Won't fit. The CR6 (like some new Creality machines) uses various different parts, hotend included. That's the problem with machines like that. When companies change some random parts on their machines, aftermarket companies cannot justify making direct replacements. How many people have CR6? Idk but it is an order of magnitude less folks than the Ender 3 or CR-10.
      It looks like you could install the Revo Six with a E3D V6 conversion mount, but that wouldn't have the proper Thermistor for the stock firmware.

    @MandicReally I really wanted to buy this hot end and came across this video because ED3 totally just blew me off. I have a CR10 Max so not directly supported by ED3 but should be compatible. The short version of a mornings worth of emails is below.
    I asked if extensions are available and the length, I was told extensions are machine specific with no information on length or connections
    I said ok can you give me the specs for Molex connector and the wire awg/mm^2 so I can make my own loom.
    Their final answer:
    "I regret that we are unable to provide the level of specification you have requested.
    The Revo CR is supplied with butt splice connectors to alleviate the need for custom wiring, this method and parts have been chosen to accommodate the intended machines the hotend was developed for."
    If they design and make these things, the information really isnt a big ask and should be readily available on their purchasing system.
    MandicReally, could you tell me what the length was on those extensions and was one end the molex plug that mates with the recepticle on the revo cables?
    Cheers, great video.

    • @MandicReally

      As I modified and cable managed my machine with it in there, I'm sorry to say I just don't have a good answer for you. IT really does bother me when companies don't provide requested specs. I fully understand they cannot tell you the spec you need for your specific machine, but the lengths and all of that information on what they are selling shouldn't be difficult to provide.
      Sorry to hear that has been your experience.

      @@MandicReally thanks for replying, not sure I understood it though.
      Did you use the provided extension cables? In which case the one end should have connected with the revo molex?
      Or did you make your own loom in which case you would of had to choose cable sizes?
      I can appreciate you probably didn't measure the extension lengths.
      I think it's terrible service from ed3 and agree they should easily be able to provide the specs on what they are selling.
      The hot end is the load so the cable size and connectors they have chosen are specific to their device and make no difference to my machine. Creality use the same ntc thermistor across their range so that should work. The only thing I need to figure out is the footprint which I already wasted an evening doing.

      @MandicReally  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@RoadRashSpirit sorry missed what you were asking for. I used the provided extension cable, which had the molex connector to go to the Revo on it. On the other end I cut the connector off and crimped on a JST-XH connector. I installed it on an Ender 3 so no addition wiring was required. If I had to guess I’d say they test fitted with an Ender 3 and only an Ender 3 as the cables were JUST long enough from my recollection.
      Hope that helps, I’m sorry I don’t have any further info on wire gauge size or lengths. Let me know if there is something more I can provide and I’ll see what I can do.
