Plastic Pellets Mixing: Can the Pulsar™ extruder mix polymers while extruding?

Pulsar™ has no mixing section, but experiments have shown that there's a good shear in the screw, mostly in the later section of the extruder. This section which is very close to the nozzle adds some mixing path and fixed separation of the melt before it exits, which greatly improves the mixing.

Heater Block Material: A Better Understanding of the Pro Series Hotend Design

The Pro series line of product is designed to push the reliability to a whole new level. Every small feature has been redesigned from bottom-up from based on the feedback we received and our own experience. The heating block undergoes a massive amount of stresses: thermal stress from the heater, pressure stress from the extruder and tension stress from the nozzle. With our intensive tests with high-temperature materials such as PEEK, PEI (Ultem) and PSU, we have realized that this component required a rethinking.

Our Cube Pro Total Conversion: A step-by-step guide on how we converted this printer into a more open and functional machine

The Cube Pro is a well-known printer from 3D Systems. We knew this printer had excellent mechanical design and we were interested in buying one. We found a pretty good deal on a non-working unit and decided to buy it. The unit in question had one extruder removed due to malfunction. Learn in this blog series how we managed to convert a non-working Cube Pro into an amazing printer; with open source firmware, high-end components, able to print any materials, and for a fraction of the price of the original printer.
