Today I’ll show you a first idea for an IOT enabled 3D printer extruder. The base is a NodeMCU v1.0 running a very basic webserver script. This is a very cheap IOT device based on a ESP8266 that is very easy to program with a recent Arduino IDE.It is connected to a A4988 stepper motor„IOT enabled 3D printer extruder“ weiterlesen

3D printer hardware updates
The most recent updates for my MPCNC used as 3D printer: Triple filament hotend or „diamond hotend“, which is a compact multicolor hotend that enables the printer to print 3 different colors/filaments at the same time through one noozle. The most recent updates for my Prusa I3C pro: Filament holder for 2 spools and a„3D printer hardware updates“ weiterlesen
State of MPCNC 3D printer
Some days ago my new metal extruders and a dual extruder arrived. So the old extruder had to be disassembled from my Prusa I3B pro to add it for some tests to my new MPCNC machine. The dual extruder replaced the single one and magically the Prusa I3B pro became a Prusa I3C Pro. First„State of MPCNC 3D printer“ weiterlesen
MPCNC Igus style version with Smartramps (Arduino Due) controller
It’s the right time to present the Alpha-Version of a Igus-style M(ostly)P(rinted)CNC.This is a slightly modified version from the original one published by Allted on thingyverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:724999). Mostly all metal bearings have been replaced by new designed 3D-printed adapters.My motivation: Save money for the hardware parts to buy a more powerfull control: Smartramps (Ramps for„MPCNC Igus style version with Smartramps (Arduino Due) controller“ weiterlesen
Remote control for your 3D printer
Octoprint, Odroid-C1 and a Prusa I3 B Pro from Geeetech are perfect teamplayers to build an open source hard- and software solution for realizing a remote controllable 3D printer.Octoprint is a server which offers you a webinterface for not only providing a video live view of your printing process but it lets you upload gcode„Remote control for your 3D printer“ weiterlesen
Raspberry Pi 3 with 4.4.7 full preemptive realtime kernel running a synth
The Raspberry Pi came back to me…The RPI3 is running a Ubuntu Mate on top of a 4.4.7 linux kernel with full preemption. First I tried to get the zynaddsubfx running with a graphical system (desktop) but it works much better with a headless system and all unneccesary daemons running in the background stopped. We„Raspberry Pi 3 with 4.4.7 full preemptive realtime kernel running a synth“ weiterlesen
