3dSolex teaser message / Matchless nozzles and block V3

Post by Dim3nsioneer »

Hey guys

There is a not too small teaser on the 3dSolex website:
http://3dsolex.com/

It's something for UM2 and UM2+ users... :-D

Not enough teaser? Ok, it's going to be something shiny...

(and it's not the UMO TFT or the ruby nozzle)

Yes, seen it a couple of days ago while searching for the UMO TFT ;)

What about something like E3d Vulcano?

What are the advantages of the shiny version? I got one from carl but I haven't use it (carl knows why).

Hm... I could give some pretty detailed information here but I would at least spoil the teaser. I have to check first with Carl how much information exactly I'm allowed to give publicly at this early stage. But I'll get to you Neotko by pm.
Once it is officially announced I think I can share all the details.

He applied for them, yes. The 'race' principle may be patent worthy. However, he has to prove, this is his work alone for getting the patent. Personally, I see it mainly as a tool for making sure it does not appear suddenly in a new machine of a closed-source printer. Some manufacturers have proven in the past that they are able to take a community design and to patent it (disclaimer: I do not suspect Ultimaker, for which machines this block is designed for, to do such a thing!). Better save than sorry...

This "full contact with block" slanted edge on the nozzle, am i missing something or would that not be very tolerance-dependent and make it unlikely to get the edge and the sealing surface at the back of the nozzle perfectly tight at the same time, which would make for either a less-than perfect seal or not improved heat transfer?

Hi!

Good question!

The Block V3 nd Matchlesses are manufucatured to an accuracy of 4/1.000mm or better in some places.
It ensures contact inside and outside at the same time.

should plastic leak and come between the block and the nozzle entry, it would be only the conical rim which would suffer.
the extra theeading and other measures are still fully in place!

I was so sick and tired of quarreling with Far East manufacturers, returning goods, having goods returned, etc, so decided to
go "all in" on the technology side.

The Chinese will find it difficult ro manufacture these items, since it is already difficult in Norway.

With this block and nozzles and a good feeder ( ie Bondtech, etc) I am eating out all the CPU power of the UM2, if I want!

One trick, it allows for printing at lower temperatures, since the plastic heats up evenly.

thanks!

I ordered mine from George in the states! This must have been what everyone was talking about in the corners during the community weekend!? LOL

Great work, can't wait to try it out on my printers and then our Z-Unlimited rig.
