Ender Filament Runout Sensor and Feeder
Description
##Filament Rounout Sensor for Ender and Filament-Inserting-Help This Sensor has **less friction** as usual parts. TPU, other flexible Filament, transparent **- everyting - will be detected**. **No influence** to filament despoiling and extruder friction. This Sensor is mounted directly on intake-hole of extruder, so **inserting** filament in extruder will become very simple. For more information (in german) visit my [homepage](https://www.mostfun.de) (search "Ender"). ##Update March 2020: I created another Version of the Sensor. The difference: the feedin is now covered and not so sensible against mechanical issues. The edge on the bottom is now screwable, so printing starts not with support, printing time is reduced and Surface is smooth. Model is now printable also with ABS and ASA filament. Disadvantage of the new model: the winding for the edge/nose has to be reworked after printing. You need a M6 metric toolset. ##For buildup you need:## 1x Bearing Ball MR63ZZ 3x6x2,5mm (Amazon or other) 1x Mikroswitch: 20x6x10mm with Roller on 18mm arm (Amazon or other) Full List on my [homepage](https://www.mostfun.de) with links for sources. This part is created with Fusion 360, feel free to change it for adapting to other printers or improving model.
