A Closer Look

Lots of the things we’d want to take a closer look at have already been addressed in the build process so I will only be looking at some things we missed here.

Starting with the homing method the printer uses. When you home the printer you will notice a small click on two of the axis, the X and Y axis, this is because the printer uses physical switches to know when it has reached the home point.

Another thing to look at is the texture on the glass bed, it is almost dotted, this texture will affect the adhesion of a print to the print bed and also the finish on the bottom layer, so even something small like this can make a big difference to the end result and the ease of use of the printer.

A slightly odd choice for the printer was to have the filament sensor so far away from the extruder, this means that the printer could be sensing filament without yet having anything to extrude.

The last thing we will look at is the nozzle, the printer comes with a spare nozzle for when the first one eventually kicks the bucket. The nozzle is inside a block of what I assume is silicone, for what reason? I’m not sure, but I would make the assumption that it acts as an insulation layer to protect anything around it from the extreme heat the nozzle can reach.
