Duet3d filament sensor
-
where can i order the duet3d filament sensor?
-
We have not released it yet. I have some prototypes that I plan to send out to beta testers. I don't yet have an ETA on production sensors but will post in the forum when I do.
-
I will follow this post with interest.
What does it take to be a beta tester? -
Are we talking a filament width sensor?

Thanks

I do not know what the current ideas are, but what I would like is a sensor that tells the electronics if the filament is moving (approximately) as much as it should be. More than just "filament out," also "filament jammed."
-
Yes our prototypes monitor filament motion.
-
This is very exciting. Failures caused by filament issues are one of the last pieces of my "reliability" puzzle. A single instance of a large bulge in filament diameter, causing a jam in the hot end, takes down a whole print. This sensor could help mitigate or remove that risk.

Great news ! I was looking for this functionality since the begining !

Is it possible to join the beta test batch? (If it's not too late) I've currently built mine with optic sensor, but managing the movment of the filament seems very interesting
-
Indeed, if you're looking for beta testers, sight me up.
-
How about a sneak peak at what the new sensor looks like?
-
moved to the filament monitor forum. More to follow about the beta tests.
