Summary

Belted Extruder v4 - 2.85mm / 3mm

The Belted Extruder v4 is a Geared Extruder using a GT2 Belt and Aluminium Pulleys for optiomal accuracy, resolution and power.
The BEv4 is an updated version of my Belted Extruder V3. The v3 uses larger more "standard" bearings.

This model is for 2.85mm / 3mm filaments. You can find the Belted Extruder V4, 1.75mm here.

I've added a model called "full length" in order to be able to mount it horisontally.

Proven record
I've been using the v3-4 for over a year and it's an extremely reliable design. My first one printed in PLA is still running!
Aside from countless users, I also know of several companies using these for their printer-farms by now, as they are very cheap to deploy and requires close to no maintenance.

What is a Belted Extruder and why is it build using Aluminium Pulleys?

  • It is a geared extruder
  • It uses 2 aluminium pulleys and a belt to drive the filament drivebit
  • Silent running due to belt usage
  • Higher accuracy and longelevity due to aluminium pulleys vs printed
  • Design of printed parts to achieve rigidity and stability
  • No hard to print gears which degrade and loose accuracy
  • All parts used are readily available, so not forcing you to buy key components from me
  • It measures 90mm by 52mm.
