Quite interesting news from @E3D-Online ​​. :wink:

Thats really nice.

@Nathan_Walkner its nothing new, there was another extruders like this before,

The recreus shown in that video doesn’t appear to have gear reduction. That’s what is new about the Aero vs. existing MKx style extruders.

Their inventive creativity in this niche market never ceases to amaze me. I am a long time fan and a very satisfied customer. Kudos gents!

So, they’re saying that a Titan + E3Dv6 is crap and they know it. So glad I have that exact setup.

Why crap, works well on thousands of machines. If you develop something better, you do it intentionally. :wink:

Well the point possibly being their silly pendulum effect animation shows their old setup in a pretty bad light.

The animator couldn’t resist to make the old setup from jelly. :wink:

The old setup is definitely not going to move that much. The tolerance of the printer itself is going to be much worse than any deflection seen from the nozzle. The new setup is a much stiffer design for sure. Should be more effective with flexible filament since the distance from the gear to the exit nozzle has been drastically reduced.

@Jaime_Valdez I personally think the animation is wrong, it’s not the hotend that “flexes” it’s the whole carriage that “tilts” slightly along it’s bearings. With a shorter hotend, you have a shorter arm, and thus less flex. More improvement would be to have the center-of-mass more towards the bearings.
(The Ultimaker Original has it’s center of mass at the bearings in the head. And experiences some less problems at high movement speeds because of that)

@Daid_Braam agree!
