THIS HAS BEEN UPDATED TO V3. In the meantime, if you need an MMB you can head here to purchase one from us separately. You will also want to purchase 2 EZ Drivers here.
Have an ERCF V1 and want to upgrade to the V2? We have you covered, check out our upgrade kit!
West3D has partnered with TriangeLab to bring to you the ERCF V3, sourcing quality components at an affordable price, this kit currently represents one of the best and only products on the market.
This project aims to bring multimaterial capabilities to 3D printers using a single Direct Drive toolhead. While this project is mainly dedicated to be used on VORON printers, it can also be used (or adapted) on any 3D printer that runs Klipper, and potentially RRF.
ERCF
-
An MMU or Multimaterial Unit/Upgrade allows for the automatic change of filaments on your 3D printer.
-
You can use it to create beautiful multi-colored prints or, if you're lazy, simply to avoid loading filament by hand.
-
1.Sturdy backbone - no more flex
-
2.Reliable (and custom) encoder design
-
3.Sprung servo instead of adjustable top hats
-
4.Innovative Filament trap in blocks instead of magnetic gates
-
5.Formal filament bypass
-
6.Reinforced gearbox assembly
-
7.Beautifully illustrated Manual
-
8.High Quality Step-by-step CAD
-

-
2.Redesigned Gearbox that supports legacy gearing options for upgraders
-
3.Redesigned high-constraint filament blocks with pregate sensors as a default option
-
4.Many Quality of Life additions such as improved Encoder and Selector Cart
-
5.optional microswitch PCBs which allow solderless installation
-
6.optional LED PCBs which allow solderless installation
-
7.Detailed MMB v1.1 and v2.0 wiring diagrams
