Your cart is empty.This is V2.0 Bowden Extruder DDB Universal Geared Extruder Kit with high quality steel gears. The lightweight design helping it to mount on various printers and provide a fast feeding and extraction solution that brings to you a completely new printing experience. Upgrade Highlights: 1. The position of the gear and the accuracy of all screw holes are calibrated. 2. Modified the new buckle, both sides of the V2.0 version of the DDB extruder support filament running thru in and out (it has no specified direction, and you are able to use either side of the material ports) 3. The filament has an independent motion cabin inside the extruder. The new white filament guide inside the extruder is helping the filament running smoothly. 4. The new outer shell design with edge cut on the top of the extruder is reserved for the screw rod of Ender 3 printer. 5. Upgraded shell using new mixed materials ***Please make sure Gears are Installed and Precisely Aligned before printing, they will perform successfully

I don’t ever write reviews but this one just picked me up from the gutter. Was pulling my hair out trying to get my damn printer working right. Removed my crappy stock plastic single gear and found the lever was cracked! No wonder the underextrusion.I’m on my first print with this BMG (which is an actual TriangleLabs) and it looks pretty good without changing any settings. Fits Ender 3 v2 perfectly without any mod/bracket etc.Couple things I’ve read — i) obviously redo e-steps… should be up around 400s after; ii) load some filament through then tighten the tensioner screw in all the way. Back it off 1-2 full turns for rigid filament and 3-4 full turns for flexible; iii) might make a clicking noise at higher speed, so lower retraction speed to 20-30mm/s; iv) even if you think it’s obvious how to install and get it goin… just obsessively read a bunch of posts on the BMG. Some good tips in there ¯_(ツ)_/¯::)

Seems to be a quality product for the price. There was a lot of play with the gear attached to the arm, and I've seen videos where people use a really small piece of bowden tube to make a little washer. So I was prepared to do that when I assembled mine but there was what I thought would be a better fix for it (maybe). The kit comes with a flat white washer that is supposed to go under the arm spring. I simply used that instead to remove the play in the gear and it fit perfectly. I guess I might print a washer down the line if the spring needs it, but everything seems to be working great with this set up.

No es buen estrusor, es mejor el que viene de serie en la ender3

I bought this a while back, finally got around to replacing my extruder. Tuning my original extruder, I managed to get it working a bit longer after already ordering this extruder.This extruder is expensive, but had great reviews, so I bit. No instructions really, but managed to get it together, and was able to manually turn the wheel to feed the filament through no problem. Then ended up connecting it to my Ender 3 v2. Even though the motor was turning and all gears moving, the filament just wouldn't budge. It wouldn't move.After spending several hours trying to make it work, it looks like it will end up being a $40 paperweight. Lesson to self, make sure something works properly within return period.Look elsewhere. There's better extruders at a fraction of the cost. Not sure how this one gets such high reviews and costs so much.

I bought one to do a direct drive conversion on my CR-6 SE and liked it so much I bought two more and replaced the extruders on my two bowden setups (a CR-10 and Ender 3 V2). Seems very well made. The only thing I did to these units was place a very thin M3 washer on the shaft of the gear on the swinging arm (the one the spring pushes against) to keep it at the right alignment with the other gear that grips the filament. I am not sure why there was so much play in the first place, but easily fixed. If you have a 3D printer you've probably got a lot of stupid little washers rolling around your workspace anyway. ;)

This Bowden Extruder V2.0 BMG is a truly great design and it works, really works. I installed it on my Flying Bear Ghost 4s fairly easily. There were several ways to do this so you have choices. I used tandem set screws to secure the drive gear and that required a slight trim from an internal plastic part, but not a problem. After that the only issue I had was changing the extrusion factor from 96 to 425 [as recommended by another review]. All problems of clogging, stepper slipping, and grinding were over. This is so strong I can now print PETG at 200% recommended speed! Get this extruder!

Lost 1 star for not coming with instructions or even a link to install instruction video or website. I just don't understand why things like this don't come with instructions or guidance. Other than that, it seems to be well made. I installed on my ender 3 pro (included bracket is not needed for ended 3 pro). Also if you have an overhead filament setup, it's a good idea to print a filament guide ahead of time if possible to allow the filament to enter the extruder at a better angle. You DEFINITELY need to calibrate e-steps. I saw several people comment to use 425 or 450. I shortened the Bowden tube and ended up only needing an estep value of 400. Lastly, it took me a while to get the prints to be successful without clogging the nozzle and I noticed the extruder was making loud grinding noises when retracting which would then trigger the motor to shut down. After many internet searches I finally found a thread that mentioned that you should turn off volumetric extrusion setting in Marlin. As soon as I did that, all was good and it is now printing perfectly. In summary, anytime you want to modify your printer with an upgrade, do your research and make sure you take the time to find any instructions and guidance you can before attempting installing blind. It will save you alot if headaches. Of course, sellers could also assist by including instructions and troubleshooting tips with their product.

So I bought this to replace the extruder on my Anycubic Mega X since the one it came with decided to fall apart (I’m using a bowden extruder system). How did I install it? I ended up putting it on so the words AREN’T upside down like you may have seen some people do on youtube when installing (installing it with the words upside down makes it feed backwards, logically).For the process I went through I had to do some searching, so now I’m typing my process out below so people don’t need to search.At first it worked great, then it started slipping, did some research, needed to adjust e-steps (that’s the number of times the motor turns the gear in the extruder to feed the filament into the hotend). I happened to already have Simplify3D so I plugged the printer into my PC, started Simplify3D, went to Tools > Machine Control Panel, set the port to COM3, unchecked Verbose, go to Communications tab and click Connect (it worked one day and didn’t the day before, Idk). After that I follow Thomas Salanderer’s E-step calibration video and ended up with a new E-Step number of ~377mm/s (from the manufacturer the Mega X is apparently set to 400mm/s which is… impressive(?) for a non-dual drive extruder from what I’ve read) once I had the number to input I typed in the code for the new steps (M92E377 for me) then put in command M500. It should save the settings, but just in case send code M501 (this will call up the data you saw when you first connected BUT with your new E-Step value). Restart your printer, reconnect to your computer and double check that the value remained the same. Then do a test print, and you SHOULD be good.Happy Printing!

Upgrading my old Ultimaker 2, and this extruder just fits!! It is an awesome bowden upgrade, and even used the old stepper motor! Great product!!
