Bondtech IFS Extruder for Prusa Mini / Mini+ IDGA

New Version WITH IDGA Shipping Now! with new white plastic main gear and integrated drive gear for lower run-out New Bondtech Internal Filament Sensor Extruder for Prusa Mini. This extruder is an evolution of our previous high-resolution extruder upgrade for the Prusa Mini. Filament Sensor The new filament sensor for Prusa Mini/+ may be mounted inside the extruder housing. The IFS Extruder for Prusa Mini may be used without the filament sensor. With a simple process it is easy to later update it to fit the Prusa Filament Sensor inside. Upgrade Your Prusa Mini or Mini+ Upgrade your Prusa Mini/+ with a Bondtech Dual Drive extruder designed to seamlessly fit the original setup. Filament Sensor Compatible The Bondtech Internal Filament Sensor Extruder for Prusa Mini may embed the new Prusa filament sensor for Mini or Mini+ on its housing. The extruder may be used with or without the filament sensor. Hardened Drive Gears Allows to use abrasive materials that would wear out the gears of your original feeder otherwise. Adjustable tension The thumbscrew tensioner allows the user to fine-tune the pressure exerted by the drive gears onto the filament. This gives you the power to adjust according to your preferences and to optimize for the type of material you are using. More choice of materials The hardened steel Dual Drive gears allow you to work with common and abrasive materials.

This new IFS version was developed by Vecko Kojchevski on top of Olof’s work. It’s based on the thoroughly tested BMG (Bondtech Mini Geared) and adjusted to the Prusa Mini original design. Product Info EAN Code: 7350011413942 Net weight : 114g Gearing ratio : 3:1 E-steps value : 415 Extruder Housing: SLS Printed parts in PA12; Hinge: injection molded. E-steps and Klipper settings For Klipper users rotation_distance = full_steps_per_rotation * microsteps / steps_per_mm rotation_distance = 200 * 16 / 415 rotation_distance = 7.71 The above calculation assumes the following parameters: stepper motor is a 1.8 degrees motor hence 200 as full steps per rotation; If you are using a 0.9 degrees stepper motor, replace full_steps_per_rotation with 400; microsteps are set to 16; e-steps value recommended for the BMG / DDX is 415.   Although we recommend to use the rotation_distance instead of the gear_ratio, we inform the BMG / DDX gearing ratio is 50:17 .
