Filament Monitor /Jam/Clog/Length/Flow rate/Filament Run Out
I needed to include a length/jam/clog / out of filament thingy.. i searched online and were so costly that i ended up doing my version.
The printed part hosts an 600pr encoder coupled to a 608zz bearing.. the encoder is fed to a controller that measures the filament flow and outputs it on serial port. if a jam/or out of filament is detected an M600 command is sent to the 3d printer. configurable with an button and led changes colour depending on state !
Soon on my Tindie Page.
This thing was made with Tinkercad. Edit it online https://www.tinkercad.com/things/0xGkDLscX0s
