Load Cell Force Sensor For Filament Monitoring
-
Hey all, I just was wanting to throw this idea out there and maybe see if I can look forward to a feature like this in the future compared to current filament monitors that I've dealt with (which have not been great, even with the laser and magnetic monitor from duet). So by now I'm sure most if not all have seen the Prusa XL release with it's load cell sensor built into the heatsink of the hotend. It looks like they are able to get really great results with this method which leaves me going "man, I want to install one on my duet printers I've built!". Obviously I imagine something like this would not be a simple plug'n play sensor, so I guess I'm looking to see if I'm the only one who would like this Implemented into RRF, and if I'm not alone, is it possible for the duet team to implement it?
Happy Printing everyone and God bless!
