LulzBot TAZ Single Extruder 2.85mm Tool Head v2.1 for Taz 6 3D printer

Description

For sale a used Single Extruder Tool Head for Lulzbot TAZ 6 3D printers, it was part of a fleet of
prototyping
printers. This tool head was last
rebuilt
as part of the
routine
requirement but was never used after the refurbishment as all the printing were shifted to be outsourced. This is a direct drop-in replacement for the original tool head that came with Lulzbot TAZ 6
2.85/3mm filament, 0.5mm nozzle.
Improvements and design changes are as follows:
Quieter ball bearing hot end cooling fan.
Revised extruder body
with stronger backside bearing mount. (this is a common breakage area)
PTFE tube enclosed filament path
ensures smooth extrusion and extends up to the drive wheel,
performs wonderfully with flexible filaments.
Additional support anchor
directly above the stepper motor to substantially increase rigidity of the tool head. No more wobble/flex from the tool head. (very noticeable during nozzle wiping and high speed printing)
Elevated hot end cooling fan
for better view and easier maintenance.
Stronger printed components
are printed with Volcano hot end with very high layer-squish-to-width ratio to ensure maximum thermal bond between each layers, resulted parts are much stronger than original Lulzbot tool heads.
