Component & Description

1.
Nozzles
•
The nozzle is a precision piece of metal,
where melted filament is extruded out
from.
•
Nozzles are interchangeable, and come in
various sizes; 0.4 mm is normal, while
you might use a smaller nozzle for finer
detail or a larger nozzle to print faster.
2.
Z Sensor Assembly
•
During homing, the Z sensor arm swings
over the build plate and sends a signal
when the plate is at the right height. This
allows for precise height setting. Once
homed, the sensor arm retracts to allow
for printing.
