Component Name

V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle 1.75mm x 0.4mm

Description

The V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle 1.75mm x 0.4mm is a high-performance hotend nozzle designed for 3D printing applications. It is a crucial component of the extruder system, responsible for melting and extruding filament at high temperatures and pressures.

Functionality

The primary function of the V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle is to receive molten filament from the heater block and extrude it through a small orifice, creating a consistent and controlled flow of material. This process allows for the layer-by-layer build-up of 3D objects.

Key Features

  • Material: The nozzle is constructed from high-quality brass, providing excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and durability.
  • Volcano Design: The Volcano design features a unique, tapered interior geometry that enables faster and more efficient melting of filament, reducing the likelihood of clogging and improving overall print quality.
  • Length: The nozzle has an extended length, allowing for a longer thermal transition zone and improved heat dissipation, which helps to reduce warping and improve layer adhesion.
  • Orifice Size: The nozzle features a 0.4mm orifice, which is suitable for printing with a wide range of filaments and layer heights. A smaller orifice size can be used for more detailed prints, while a larger orifice size can be used for faster, more voluminous prints.
  • Inlet Size: The nozzle has an inlet size of 1.75mm, compatible with standard 1.75mm filament.
  • Thread Size: The nozzle features a standard M6 thread, making it compatible with most hotend assemblies and extruders.
  • High-Temperature Resistance: The nozzle is designed to withstand extremely high temperatures, typically up to 300C (572F), ensuring reliable performance and minimizing the risk of thermal degradation.
  • Easy Installation: The nozzle features a simple, threaded design, making it easy to install and replace as needed.

  • + Use a thermistor cable (typically 2-pin or 3-pin) to connect the nozzle to the mainboard.
  • 2. Pin 2: Heater Signal (HS)
  • Function: Carries the heater control signal from the 3D printer's mainboard to the nozzle's heating element.
  • Connection:
  • + Connect Pin 2 to the heater signal pin on the 3D printer's mainboard (usually labeled as "E0" or "Heater 1").
  • + Use a heater cable (typically 2-pin or 3-pin) to connect the nozzle to the mainboard.
  • 3. Pin 3: Ground (GND)
  • Function: Provides a common ground connection for the thermistor and heater signals.
  • Connection:
  • + Connect Pin 3 to a grounding point on the 3D printer's mainboard (usually labeled as "GND" or "Ground").
  • + Use a grounding wire or cable to connect the nozzle to the mainboard.
  • 4. Pin 4: Not Connected (NC)
  • Function: Not used in this nozzle configuration.
  • Connection:
  • + No connection required.
  • Important Notes:
  • Ensure proper insulation and strain relief for all connections to prevent damage to the pins, cables, or mainboard.
  • Verify the 3D printer's mainboard documentation for specific pin assignments and connection requirements, as they may vary depending on the printer model and firmware.
  • Use proper soldering techniques and materials when making connections to the pins.
  • Handle the pins and cables with care to prevent damage or bending, which may cause faulty connections or nozzle malfunction.
  • By following this pinout and connection guide, you can successfully connect the V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle 1.75mm x 0.4mm to your 3D printer's mainboard and achieve optimal printing performance.
