3D model description

All new re-designed automatic filament loader for 3D printers. This all new design brings the same function to your printer as the original design with many improvements . Shorter, smaller, Ability to mount in more locations, and most importantly, it can feed TPU and other flexible filaments. As this was a complete redesign and took many more engineering hours, I am listing it separately as version 1.0 still works fine for many applications. Adding new Extruder compatibility all the time. Currently It is compatible with the following style extruders:

Creality metal or plastic
BMG style
Dual Gear (as shown in photos)
Microswiss
There are versions of the above mentioned specifically designed to mount on Ender style both for direct drive and Bowden tube configurations. There are many ways to mount it depending on your setup.

Follow these links to my YouTube channel to see the complete assembly of the unit and a video showing it working on an extruder hooked to one of my delta printers:

There is an exploded view showing all the parts together. Additionally, I will add variants to accommodate different extruders. currently, I have the one completed for use on a Dual gear extruder, and one that is reversed to accommodate mounting on an Ender with the stock bowden tube setup or one converted to direct drive with the Dual gear extruder.

I included 3 photos of the different models of extruders that are accommodated with these files. some STL's are duplicates as some parts are the same between extruders, but it was easier to just name them for the extruder they are compatible. Just download the ones you need.

There is also a combined .STL for each version, that you can just split up in your slicer if you only want to download one file. Refer to the photos of the extruders to see if one of these variants will work for you model.

Not sure if the exploded view gets included in the downloads, so here is the list of parts:
