optical filament sensor 3d models

I'm designing a custom filament runout sensor housing to match my Omron micro switch perfectly, but after scouring the market, I couldn't find one that meets both criteria. ...Therefore, I've decided to fabricate my own enclosure from scratch.

Needed a simple filament sensor. I used the parts, I had laying around. Works well with hard materials (PLA/PETG/ASA/...) and with TPU. Not sure about more flexible materials. Endstop switch: https://bit.ly/3GQfsb2 Bowden coupler(1/8"):...

The file is labeled V4, and I devoted the entire day to developing a filament sensor that should be simple to build when utilizing those microswitches. The lever might need to be printed using a more durable material to prevent sticking. I will...

This manual serves as a comprehensive guide for installing the CR10S filament sensor, specifically its top cover component. The installation procedure involves attaching this new part using the same original screws that came with the printer. ...When...

It effectively detects when filament runs out during printing.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-oLVpIYh2k\r\n\r\nPosition this mounting right before the extruder so the extruder can easily unload filament once it is empty.\r\n\r\nWe developed...

Filament Sensor Utilizing BLTouch End Stop Switch on Ender 5 To create a filament sensor utilizing the switch from the left over end stop from an Ender 5, you must first have installed a BLTouch. You will need to desolder the switch from the end...

Ender 3 runout sensor microswitch case

This remix allows you to line the entire path through the filament sensor cartridge with a short segment of PFA bowden tubing, which completely separates the filament path from the sensor cavity while maintaining full sensor functionality (filament...

There are plenty of options for universal runout sensors but I wanted to make the waste filament as short as possible, so why not make the sensor a part of the extruder? In order to use this you will likely need to convert your printer to direct...

If you are using BLTouch, that you have free switch from the Z-stop and you can use this as the Filament sensor upgrade for your printer if you have Creality Ender Machine and control via Raspberry Pi with Octoprint! If the filament run out the...

This filament runout sensor was up graded from the Creality Ender series sensor to be able to articulate and follow the extruder. It allows for full Z axis extension without binding or braking the filament and less pull force of the extruder. It...

... ... You're just moments away from crafting a simple mount for your filament sensor. To begin, gather two M3-20 screws with nuts - they'll be the foundation of this project. First, thread one of the bolts through the nut as shown in the illustration.

I recently did t dual z-axis with z braces upgradeby proper printing (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3719799) and wanted to use a filament runout sensor Since almost every sensor is mounted to the extruder and would limit the movement in z I...

A Custom Filament Runout Sensor for Tevo Tarantula Extruders. This device replaces key components in the original extruder setup, utilizing a unique design to minimize bending moment stress on the spring and contact bearing, which are not aligned...

This modification secures the filament sensor directly onto the x-carriage of the printer, ensuring a snug and secure fit for both the filament entering and the sensor itself. This add-on uses only standard components. The screws on the x-carriage...

 As a result, loading filament is a bit of a chore… first, find the slightly-hard-to-locate hole in the bottom of the filament runout sensor; then, after pushing the filament through that you have to grab the upper end and guide it back to the...

I've created this filament run-out sensor using your choice of filament and just two strips of aluminum can. I haven't tested it yet, but it should work as long as the aluminum is free of any paint or plastic coating. Two strips of roughly 3.25mm...

Der zweite Schalter ist der für den Runout. Filament sensor for diameter errors and low filament. 2 mechanical limit switches are required, connect them in parallel. Insert some PTFE hose at the top. This is where the film runs through first. If...

I recently stumbled upon Thomas Sanladerer's fantastic filament diameter sensor, and I'm thrilled to report it's a game-changer; it outperforms my previous design in every way. With its exceptional sensitivity and rock-solid reading stability, this...

The idea is to have a smart filament sensor out of simple parts almost everyone will have lying around from printer maintenance and upgrades. Parts: - 1 x M5 screw (for the axle, long enough, excess doesn't matter) - 1 x M3 screw (for the clamping...

Bodroi's sensor avoids this problem by using bearings for the filament contact which appears to work well. The problem with that design is the 608 bearings are pretty heavy for mounting on a direct drive extruder. This design attempts to combine the...

This is a remix from: Ender 3 Filament Roller Guide from Holspeed (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3052488)I used the bracket from this thing and added instead of the filament guide a holder for a Filament runout sensor. The Sensor I used is the...

I was unable to find a filament sensor that matched the size of my micro switch, which measured 12.9mm x 6.5mm x 5.9mm using my calipers. All available sensors were too large. In response, I quickly created my own sensor. I designed it with a cover...
