Elegoo Giga Multi-Printhead Installation Tutorial

Elegoo FTW! We would like to test the device. We are a producer of BMC/SMC plastics in Germany, but thermoplastic from the 3D printer is indispensable for prototypes.

This seems to be one of those things where once you get it properly installed you dont take it off and just swap between the used print heads in the software if your not going to use the whole build volume width. Thought of this while watching are there other brackets for the 2 and 3 print head setups or are they all on the same bracket just removing or adding as needed ? if not that might be a good first print for this such that we can adjust the usable print volume based on how many heads we have? Does the software limit the x-travel when swapping print head modes because of the bracket so it doesn't crash into the sides or hit the limit switches? Saw later in cura that it adjusts the build volume based on print heads, so this could be a different preset setting in say orca slicer where I could want say (2x400-->2x150, 3x265-->3x200) given the model, printhead and brackets are modular enough and dont interfere, Probably some math that is needed to make sure you have the build volumes setup correctly but could be fun to see. Honestly very interested in how this setup is configured because I plan to be using the batch printing for quite a few different parts and trying to see how best to setup and potentially speed up changing setups... Thank you for the video!

I’m the same, I’ve seen all the KZbin reviews but knowbody has addressed the value in batch printing with small parts, to me that’s the money maker

How are you going to fit spools on the spool holders? They look very close together

[@aesn1]

Why you don't implement exchangeable extrusion heads like PrusaXL.. this fixed alignment has obvious limitations.

The system would be advanced and huge

Nice
