Product Information
Are you in Australia and looking to buy an E3D Roto Extruder? The Roto is the perfect extruder for Revo. It strikes a great balance between a light weight of 140g and a high extrusion force of 70N+. This makes it the lightest and most power - dense 3D printing extruder on the market.
**Features**
- **Lightweight yet powerful**: The unique roto gearbox with a planetary initial stage, a spur secondary stage, and a dual hobb third stage provides enough force to fully use the maximum flow rates of Revo High Flow nozzles. It also has a motor stall failure mode instead of filament grind.
- **Easy to maintain**: Designed with ease of use in mind. You can access the hobbs by removing just three bolts to take off the heatsink and filament path while keeping the extruder body in place. The new filament tensioning system has a simple bi - stable mechanism for optimal tension or full release, making filament loading and cold pulls a breeze. You can even change the nozzle and release the filament with one hand.
- **Cool design**: It features a 3D printed metal heatsink. Thanks to SLM 3D printing, the design is highly optimized. The heatsink reduces heat build - up through conduction and disrupts radiating heat from the HotSide, resulting in excellent thermal efficiency.
- **Standard or smart**: You can upgrade to the sensored bundle. It adds filament monitoring, an action button, fan speed monitoring, and heatsink temperature monitoring. This gives you peace of mind with remote monitoring and easy maintenance for a hands - off 3D printing experience.

Using the E3D Roto Extruder is quite straightforward. First, make sure you have the right filament diameter, which is 1.75mm. When loading the filament, use the bi - stable tensioning system. You can easily set it to the optimal tension or release it completely for a smooth loading process. If you want to access the hobbs, just remove three bolts to take off the heatsink and filament path, but keep the extruder body in place.
When it comes to maintenance, it's important to keep an eye on the motor current. The recommended motor current is 0.45A PEAK. Also, pay attention to the operational temperature rating of 40°C. If you have the sensored bundle, use the monitoring features to check the filament, fan speed, and heatsink temperature regularly. This will help you catch any issues early and keep your 3D printing process running smoothly.
Remember, the heatsink is a key part of the extruder. It's designed to prevent heat creep, so make sure it's clean and not blocked. If you need to change the nozzle, you can do it with one hand by using the tensioning system to release the filament. With these tips, you'll be able to get the most out of your E3D Roto Extruder.
