Orbiter V2 Dual Drive Direct Extruder

Newest generation of the Orbiter Extruder - Version 2.0 is a big improvement on the V1.5 design, with the extra options of a built-in filament sensor in the future! (coming 2022)

Key improvements:

• Shorter drive gears 11mm vs 15mm
• Hardened filament drive gears manufactured by Bondtech
• Weight reduced to ~135 grams
• Smaller more compact dimensions (11.6% shorter)
• New motor design offers ~40% increase in pushing force in real printing conditions and much improved acceleration performance vs the -36sth20-0504
• Flipped drive gears – filament path closer to the extruder center for a more balanced design and perfect fit on delta printers as well
• Stainless steel filament exit guide with 0.2-0.3mm clearance to drive gears for best TPU printing experience and extreme wear resistance when using abrasive filaments.
• High temperature resistant injected housings, GPA12
• Machined PEEK secondary drive gear sleeve
• Tension mechanism with grab screw design (Captive Grab Screw)
• Mounting screws in line with filament exit path – improving housing stiffness and easier mounting
• Perfectly aligned filament path
• New smaller and better PTFE input coupler
• Motor position rotated by additional 10 degrees for easier maintenance and assembly
• Filament sensor add on with auto load and unload button add on feature
• And many more small changes to improve mechanical accuracy and design look
