Micro Swiss NG™ Direct Drive Extruder

This extruder overcomes the shortcomings of all current counterparts on the market, to create an optimal printing experience for everyone.

With the Bevel Gear design, we are able to achieve the industry shortest filament path (less than 41mm). The unique motor placement allows for highly compact, low overhang design.  This further increases system rigidity. 

Features:

  • Lightweight
  • 3:1 Gear ratio
  • Adaptable to wide range of 3D Printers
  • Hardened steel, precision cut Dual Gear drive
  • Industry shortest, highly constrained, TwinClad XT™ plated filament path
  • Bevel Gear system allows a low overhang extruder mount
  • Integrated with a Micro Swiss All Metal Hotend

Very impressive

Going from stock Ender 3 hotend/extruder to this. Very impressive results so far. Nice kit and easy install.

The parts that come in the box are great...

The BL Touch bracket model that Micro Swiss provides for you to print yourself is not very good. It is very flexible and does not provide a way to attach nuts to the machine screws that hold the probe to the bracket. Honestly for the premium price and the popularity of BL Touch on Ender 3 printers a metal probe bracket should probably be in the box.

Great product, works with Ender 3 v2 Neo, with some tweaks

Microswiss don't recommend this product for the V2 Neo, but I'm running it on one right now, at up to 290 degrees, prints everything I throw at it.

The only problem with the V2 Neo is the X axis limit switch. Print a replacement limit switch cover off Thingiverse, there's one that's meant for the V2 Neo, which actually has a completely different switch to other Ender 3 models. It moves the limit switch to where it typically is on a standard Ender 3. Then just program your offsets using gcode commands to tell the printer where to put the nozzle and you're good to go. I recommend flashing your firmware with the Pro Firmware off Github. It unlocks so many features and of course takes away that pesky temperature limit. And you can download the appropriate binery for you printer and with the features you want, stick it on your SD card and plug it straight in to your printer if learning how to compile Marlin isn't your thing. It's so easy, and really allows you to take advantage of this excellent hotend/extruder assembly.

Works well

I run Klipper and am having trouble with dialing in the flow for this. Klipper uses rotation distance so you can’t set your steps to 400 like the instructions say. Online forums help. Need Klipper option for firmware
