Issues with new extruder

Post by SoupersSB » Thu Jul 05, 2018 5:13 am

So I recently bought a new extruder as my old one had a clogged hothead and a nut that couldn't be unscrewed so I bought a new extruder, I believe it was this: Redrex Assembled MK8 Extruder, which I was told by many, worked with a pro B. However upon purchasing, I have found that the wires that plug into the main board are completely different! Any ideas on a work around? https://imgur.com/a/dhGV11K

The slot of thermistor can fit the mainboard.
For the heating wiring, just remove the slot and wire it directly to the slot of mainboard.

Hi

If this plugin is a problem for you, you can always cut it off. If necessary, replace with another.

A very good solution has been found for my printer.
This is the ARK screw socket.

This socket is very versatile and reliable.
And it does not pose any problems when it comes to replacing the connected periphery.
