thingiverse

This is a Spoolholder with integrated Scale and LCD for Ender 3. The Spoolholder can easily detach from the Profile at any time. A simple 5kg Load Cell powers the Scale, which is connected to a user-friendly Nokia 5110 Display and an Arduino nano microcontroller. You have complete control over configuring the Tara (the weight of the spool itself) and adjusting the Weight. This is achieved through a straightforward menu programming system that utilizes three intuitive buttons. These buttons also enable you to set all settings easily. Additionally, you can use the menu to adjust the brightness level of the LCD display as needed. Included with this system are an Arduino Sketch and a circuit diagram for easy setup. The following parts are required: - An Arduino Nano microcontroller - A 5kg Load Cell for accurate weight measurement - A user-friendly Nokia 5110 LCD display - Three buttons for menu navigation - Some necessary wires to connect everything properly This entire system can be assembled for approximately 20€, which is a relatively low cost considering the advanced features and functionality it provides.
