Do you end up having issues with the filament being rolled over multiple times by the spur gear? What about using to rubber rollers where only one is driven?
no theres no fussing about with those gate washers and magnets and theres also no "encoder" per say but from what i gather its relying on microswitches to tell its positon, when it pulls it in you can hear the switch actuate, push foward x amout then run it back same distance and if it changes state of the switch now it knows where the end of the filament is. simple and very effective. the ercf is a great design but i think a bit over engineered.
I don't see that happening until someone starts making LGX parts kits similar to how cheap/available BMG kits are. I hope someday that becomes a thing though.
Never had to tune my tips and everything works perfectly. I'm using 2.5 ID and an Orbiter 1.5. Also by the looks of it this does not have an encoder, and whilst the tradrack seems to be easier to make, I don't think that it's a direct upgrade functionality wise. Perhaps the ERCF is overengineered to an extent, but it's an amazing MMU when you get it to work.
loving the use of ethernet strands for cabling 👍
annex stuff is so simple I luv it
I want this! Its basically an awesome piece of tech. what a fantastic idea. My 5Plus is ready to test this!
It is basically a build from spares

ercp for help
That’s beautiful 🤩
Multi material switcher, Nice :-)
That's so cool
Looking forward to K3S
When will this be released? Super stoked about this design, really digging this design.
ERCF
@@realhusky "This design", was only interested in this as it's much cleaner & simpler.
difference vs ercf? only the 2020 alu profile and linear rail?

This is a really awesome mod. When will this be released?
We don’t do release dates. There’s a sign up for beta in the launch video
@@AnnexEngineering I have submitted on your website， and I really hope to try this mod
What with this project?:oo
Wow! That's really amazing!
May I ask how long it takes to design this until it's good to go?
we dont give dates
@@AnnexEngineering no no. That's not what I meant. I mean: how in general does it take from the idea to an almost finished version?
@@haenselundgretel654 few months usually, and another year to have it stabilized.
@@user-yk1cw8im4h That is a bit. But I for myself take minimum that time too to develop new devices.... Unfortunately
This is awesome. Have you thought about using larger LGX style drive gears?

works on klipper?
It’s designed for klipper
Why did I build an ERCF 😭 The tip tuning is a nightmare and this could potentially be way better
But looking at the feeding speed, its quicker though.
@@TheHell34 the feeding speed is all changeable in the config
