Mechanical Filament Runout Sensor for Prusa MK2, MK2S
Description
New Version Of The Filament Sensor From Nsgrimace Using The Snap-On Design From Cnckitchen. As Optical Sensors Usually Have Problems With Translucent And Transparent Filaments, A Mechanical Microswitch Is A Good Solution To Reliably Check For The Filament. I Wanted The Sensor To Be As Small As Possible Without Using Screws. I Added Several Improvements To The Design: - The Housing Does Not Touch The Standard Idler - Screwless Cover And Microswitch Mounting The Switch Is Monitored By Octoprint/Octopi Using The Filament_Sensor_Reloaded Plugin. Https://Plugins.Octoprint.Org/Plugins/Filament_Sensor_Reloaded/ Important: The Actuation Point Might Differ For Different Microswitches. You Can Solve This By Moving The Mounting Rods Accordingly. Try It And Leave Some Feedback :-) Happy Printing!
