Thanks for the feedback. Good to know that it is technically feasible.

I don't know yet whether it really makes sense to build it. I would be happy to receive further opinions.

I saw the Hlidskjalf concept, which has both printheads on one gantry. Also a cool project, by the way. But what I mean are two separate gantries. I made a little sketch so that it might be a little clearer. I think the 4 timing belts would somehow cascade in height on top of each other.

Hi folks, I'm new to the forum and so far I don't know anything about the Duet hardware or RRF. However, I have already built a couple of printers with Klipper FW.
I've thought of something for my next project, but I'm not sure whether it can be implemented at all. I've built a variety of printers so far, but I'm fascinated by the speeds some can get with their CoreXY systems. However, I want to build my next printer so that I can use two nozzles. There are already different solutions - two nozzles on one carriage or IDEX systems. But I was wondering if you can't combine the advantages of CoreXY and IDEX by letting two CoreXY systems fly over a print bed. I hope you know what I mean without being able to show you any pictures. So I actually mean a CoreXY system (gantry with carriage) for nozzle no.1 and another CoreXY system (gantry with carriage) for nozzle no.2. Both share the rails for Y. There are then a total of 4 motors - two for gantry no.1 and two for gantry no.2.

Sounds like a lot of work and you can certainly ask yourself what that is all about. But I figured that this should make it possible to create a fast and lightweight IDEX system. Super fast mirror or doubling mode and also high printing speed with two materials.

What do you all mean? I would be happy about your opinions and of course whether you think that is possible.

Thank you for sharing your design and lessons learned. Great design - looks very solid to me.
