SHRED-Buddy3D pelletizer remix V2.0
Description
**Ultimate version V2.5, see Nov 19, 2019 Updates at BOP** This is the V2.5 version of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3874671 I tried several pelletizer, but the [venturebit](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2007009)'s one is absolutely better than all others. I made some remix to it, however, to make it even better. My remixes: - added filament (or pet stripe) aligner straight to bit - modified pellets wayout to front - added pellett chute to avoid it flying around - added 3rd hole to body for 10mm screw rods to counterbalance nema17 weight - added support to motor plate - two 6800Z bearing balls to keep stable the drill bit - Arduino Uno as speed processor (I own many of them) and CNC shield - remixed electronic box to fit Arduino - use of Herringbone gears, self centering and low backlash - remixed motor clamp to hold cheap 12V 200rpm geared motor - rotated all by 90°, due to pellet not outflowing correctly in horizontal position - choice between small and big geared motors The small motor (named **motor1**) is able to strip bottles and pelletize 1.75mm filament, not the 2.85mm one. To pelletize 2.85mm filament you'll have to mount the big motor (named **motor2**) and its support2_right (see pictures above and instructions below) Firmware for Arduino in thing files.
