Tease! Ubis 13-S (standard). Testing today to see if it lives up to our hopes :wink:

If it works half as good as it looks I’d say you have quite the little hotend (just like your others haha). Keep up great work Brook. It’s fun to see your innovation/inventions!

Nice. What’s the reason for having the PEEK at the bottom? To prevent heat transfer? The fins seem a bit too high up, no?

4

That is a beautiful hotend. what is new about it?

5

Darn it
 if only I had waited


6

Whoa
 Looks really nice.

7

looks neat. I use an i3 and I’m always looking for new hotend designs.

8

So it does or doesn’t need a fan??

9

I dub this model the light saber Ubis.

10

No fan needed- saves cost. Some may opt for the fan though. More tolerant of crapppy filament. Good to 270C. No set screws, just uses hand tightening. No costing saves money. Slightly less precise than current Ubis 13 but I doubt you could see it in the real world. Can change tips cold or hot. Just a work horse. It’s the replacement for the ceramic Ubis. Much more manufacturable! Cheaper for me than ceramic. It will go on all our bots and the Ubis 13 will convert to the Ubis Pro with two cores for high flow rates, longer melt zone to accommodate dual cores and retain the 300c all metal goodness. Soon the pro will have a thermocouple option. Carl made a cool tool for changing tips too- fits perfectly into the core to hold while you swap tips.

Beautiful :slight_smile: set it in e3d price range,and available in europe,that would be cool.
Its sad how taxes and shipping makes your stuff expensive in europe :frowning:

Does it still have a Teflon insert? I had a lot of trouble with PLA on the metal Ubis. PLA sticks to metal, my only solution was to use some oil.

What do you mean by slightly less precise? Temperature stability?

13

It does have a teflon insert through the metal and into the peek.

Introductory price will be $49
 Likely $59 later
 Carl is working on pricing for me.

It’s slightly less precise b/c retraction can be higher due to a longer heat break. The Ubis 13 has a super small heat break and requires little to no retraction. In certain situations though, a tiny heat break can work against you
 So the Ubis 13-S is easier to live with- a more general performer.

14

how can it be up to 270deg if there is peek and teflon?

15

@Brook_Drumm Once I finish my diy designed frankenbot, I will have to consider one of these, is it more precise then ceramic? Glad it works with sloppy filament, I had found some on amazon, everyone loved it, but after a while it started varying diameter enough that the hot end was having trouble pushing it though and started under extruding. Got some that was 0.05mm tolerance and have not been having any problems.

16

Can You reveal @Brook_Drumm how can it work in 270deg with teflon tube and peek? It is puzzling a little bit.

17

What is that

18

Forgot to mention the melt zone is brass. I’ll have to do a tear down to show everyone what’s up w/it. It is very clever to only use a small piece of peek- it’s very expensive material.

19

or just show a drawing :wink:

@Brook_Drumm So you’re using the PEEK to essentially act as a barrier and stop the heat transfer?
