Easy Loading !! Prusa I3 MMU2(s) Buffer Festo M6 Entry

by Renba

Hello For everyday use, I have often thought of removing this damn MMU although it is useful and effective for multi-colored and multi-material prints, it is really not easy for the regular daily changes of colors and materials. . When Josef thinks to install a bypass it will be "le paradis" ! Tired of losing time inserting filaments correctly in the buffer to the tubes to the MMU.. It's not easy to place the fingers in this fu#8d$ reduced space inside the buffer to feed the filament to the upper tube to the MMU... I drew two pieces which receive 5 connector Festo 6mm. theses parts are away from the buffer, it's now a breeze to load filaments inside the buffer and to the tube to the MMU :) Here is the link to the kind of Festo connectors i used : http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/2uuKMqAk Choose PC4-M6 or PC4-M10 The high transparency crystal clear ptfe tube for MMU2 you can see on the pictures can be found here : http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/B72IheDE The support at right angles (in blue on the photos) is an accessory not essential, but very practical, you can find it here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3617984 ***** 14 december 2020 Added PC4-M10 Parts ***** Look also at my other modds for Prusa here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3273551 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3273120 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3356873 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3306917 Please post your realisation.
