Retraction Buffer Chamber
Print Profile(1)
Description
When retracting filament, this device allows for a 1cm retraction even against resistance without affecting feed pressure. Its enforced curved tube design facilitates pressure-activated buffering, aiming to resolve the ‘five-way blockage’ issue.
Considering volume and weight constraints, a simple architecture has been adopted. M1.4+-0.2*5 screws are used for fastening, connecting to 4mm PTFE tubes at both ends. A shorter tube is used on the side closer to the BMCU.
This is still under testing; suggestions are welcome.
