Description

🆕 The “MagLink” Connection

🌟 INTRODUCTION ~ ~ ~

*MagLink-Fitt / RELEASED! [ DOWNLOAD PROFILE! (RAW File Coming Soon!) ]

This model utilizes [4] 6x3mm magnets which allow you to [Connect aka “Link”] PTFE tubes resulting in Faster and Easier feeding from filament dryers!

📝🛠️ BILL OF MATERIALS ~ ~ ~

OR
[8] 5x3 mm Magnets - LINK BELOW DIRECTLY TO Maker Supply
[2] PC4-M10 / Male Threaded Pneumatic PTFE Fittings LINK (US)

✅ ASSEMBLY ~ ~ ~

Make sure to [Add pause] @ [Layer #24] / Z: 3.84mm
Grab your [6x3 mm] Magnets
@ Pause [set] Magnets into holes with correct polarity! [EZ way is having them stacked and placing face down same orientation]

📌 IMPORTANT ~ ~ ~

Do not over tighten fittings!
If you use shorter/smaller magnets; Linking strength between [MagLinks] will NOT be adequte enough!
Make sure to note [S] & [N] poles so they attract each other! Otherwise they won't “Link” together
Test linking system before adding to setup
Don't forget to add a manual [pause] if you're using the RAW FILES & not my print profile!
Currently NOT RECOMMENDED for use between [AMS > AMS BUFFER > TOOLHEAD] X1C & P1S Currently working on a permanent solution in the near future but as of now the risk of disconnection of [MagLink's] will cause [failure to Feed into Toolhead]

💬 BACKGROUND ~ ~ ~

The “MagLink” system is a versatile mechanism which will continue to bring future mods to the community, brought to you by us @Protospyre LLC. This mod is an innovation that makes life easier when using dryers or other setups that require lengths of tubing. We use this and made it specifically for our Sunlu S4 Filadryers!

Pause works well and magnets easy to embed. Works well, thank you.

Thank you @johnfcooley ! Also appreciate your feedback and will definitely work on a revision to implement the use of the MagLink within the Sunlu S4 Dryer so we can have seamless integration and ease of feeding filament without bending PTFE tubes. We’ve began some other projects alongside this that have helped us so I’ll be adding more photos to this model so everyone is aware of what it’s intended purpose is. As of now we’re also testing MagLink on the A1 Mini for compatibility with the AMS Lite making detachment easy as well 🤙🏼 Thank you again!

@ProtoSpyreLLC

@johnfcooley The [MagLink-FITT] is officially uploaded! Let us know what you think!

They work very well, but if you ever have to remove the bottom, that's a challenge. However if all goes well you won't have to. Thanks, appreciate your work on this.

@ProtoSpyreLLC

@johnfcooley Thank you for your review! Yes I noted this and will continue over time to see if we can't come up with a better method that's simple and all in one removal. Might be a [2] piece part which you insert [1] into the fitting which will stick outwards enough to push down > [1] into the mated part which feeds filament through. In the works! Thanks again for your feedback as well!
