Delivered: Hardened Steel Nozzle Sets and Sheets 🤘

My Nozzle sets of 0.20mm, 0.60mm, 0.80mm, PEI Smooth Sheet, and Graphic Effect Steel Plate were delivered today :sign_of_the_horns::sign_of_the_horns:I thought it was my Cold Brew Coffee order but this is better :joy:

Now I can print like the old CR-10S + E3D Revo days using multiple nozzles sizes in a print!

I thought you can just use one nozzle diameter within a print? Or do you use another slicer than snorca?

They sent out a survey asking if this is what users would want I replied about 6 times that YES, this is what I want! I believe the last firmware update notes mention that this is now “turned on.”

Snapmaker launched a YouTube Video two weeks ago where they said all have to be same:

Dunno if thats the actual state.

I’ll take a look today and report back. If so, that’s lacking a true tool changer function, in my opinion.

As they let you define every single nozzle diameter, I think they want to give us multiple nozzle sizes per print. But i won’t expect that in the beginning. But indeed: would be great. Especially when I have a 0.6 and a 0.2 nozzle with same filament, i want to have straight parts printed with 0.6, but round structures with 0.2. would be great to be fast and detailed.

Yeah, I like printing bases at 0.6 layer height with a 0.8 nozzle. Then “details” with a 0.2 or 0.4.

IIRC the problem is not so much installing different size nozzles in the machine, it’s declaring them to SnOrca and persuading it to slice accounting for them.

im glad i havent bought any replacement nozzles yet… i will get me the hardend nozzle and replace the normal ones this way i have spare lol

I disagree because 5-6 years ago I was doing it on a single tool head CR-10S. Using Simplify3D and a Revo nozzle was easy…

Yes, this is incredibly disappointing… When you select a nozzle size in SnOrca it automatically switches all Toolheads to that nozzle size.

I’ve got an updated version of Simplify3D that they sent me for use with the U1. I’ve been afraid to try it out but now I’m gonna have to.
