Pinout Structure:
The V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle 3.0mm x 0.6mm has a total of 4 pins, labeled as follows:
1. Thermistor Pin
Function: Temperature sensing
Description: This pin connects to a thermistor, which measures the temperature of the hotend.
Connection: Connect the thermistor wire to the thermistor pin on the nozzle.
2. Heater Pin
Function: Heater control
Description: This pin connects to the heater cartridge, which heats the hotend to the desired temperature.
Connection: Connect the heater wire to the heater pin on the nozzle.
3. Fan Pin
Function: Cooling fan control
Description: This pin connects to a cooling fan, which helps to dissipate heat from the hotend.
Connection: Connect the fan wire to the fan pin on the nozzle.
4. Ground Pin
Function: Grounding
Description: This pin provides a ground connection for the entire hotend assembly.
Connection: Connect the ground wire to the ground pin on the nozzle.
Connection Sequence:
To connect the pins on the V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle 3.0mm x 0.6mm, follow these steps:
1. Connect the thermistor wire to the thermistor pin on the nozzle.
2. Connect the heater wire to the heater pin on the nozzle.
3. Connect the fan wire to the fan pin on the nozzle.
4. Connect the ground wire to the ground pin on the nozzle.
Important Notes:
Ensure that the wires are securely connected to the pins to prevent loose connections or short circuits.
Use proper wire insulation and strain relief to prevent damage to the wires.

Code Examples

### Example 1: Marlin Firmware Configuration

In this example, we will demonstrate how to configure the V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle in Marlin firmware.

Marlin Configuration

```c++
// Configuration.h

// Define the extruder nozzle diameter and orifice
#define EXTRUDER_NOZZLE_DIA 3.0
#define EXTRUDER_NOZZLE_ORIFICE 0.6

// Define the hotend temperature range
#define TEMP_SENSOR_0_MIN_TEMP 0
#define TEMP_SENSOR_0_MAX_TEMP 300

// Enable the E3D V6 hotend
#define E3D_V6_HOTEND
```

### Example 2: Slic3r G-Code Generation

In this example, we will demonstrate how to generate G-code for a 3D printing job using Slic3r with the V6 Volcano Brass Length Extruder Nozzle.

Slic3r Configuration

```python
# Slic3r configuration file (ini format)

[general]
extruder_nozzle_diameter = 3.0
extruder_nozzle_orifice = 0.6
hotend_type = e3d_v6

[layer_height]
layer_height_0 = 0.2
```

Generated G-Code Example

```gcode
; G-Code generated by Slic3r
; Layer height: 0.2mm

G21 ; Set units to millimeters
G90 ; Absolute mode

; Set extruder temperature
M104 S215 ; Set hotend temperature to 215C

; Start printing
G1 F3000 ; Set feedrate to 3000 mm/min
G1 X0 Y0 ; Move to origin
G1 E10 F100 ; Extrude 10mm of material at 100 mm/min
```
