Pipe Enclosure Spooler Support

Pipe Enclosure Spooler Support

Moved the spooler from the printer mounted frame to the back wall of the heat resistant enclosure. This takes the weight of the spools off the printer frame. Reducing the motion pull on the printer arms. Keeping the spools inside the enclosure. The weight of those spools on the printer frame can cause movement of the head during acceleration. Creating failures such as head strikes or gaps. Getting them off the printer frame and onto the enclosure frame was the easiest change. Keeping the spools inside the enclosure reduces moisture absorption and pull length. No need for additional pullies or guides as it feeds directly into the filament break sensor.

For the Spool Support it will depend on the pipe size used as to the best fit for the pieces. This one is designed for a 17.2mm OD pipe of the enclosure with a cross pipe of 15.2mm OD. Prefer to use an Aluminum/PU pipe for extra support and strength, though that isn't required. I used some s
