LDO Orbiter v2.0 Extruder

The new Orbiter v2.0 shares its concept design with the Orbiter v1.0 and 1.5 but it has been completely redesigned from scratch, improving every possible aspect we could think of. Many suggestion we received from you, our users. A big thank for that!

Many new and improved design features:

1. Shorter hardened drive gears 11mm vs 15mm manufactured by Bondtech

1. Weight reduced to ~135 grams

1. Smaller more compact dimensions (11.6% shorter)

1. New motor design offers ~40% increase in extrusion force in real printing conditions and much improved acceleration performance

1. Flipped drive gears – filament path closer to the extruder center for a more balanced design and perfect fit on delta printers as well

1. Stainless steel filament exit guide with 0.2-0.3mm clearance to drive gears for best TPU printing experience and extreme wear resistance when using abrasive filaments.

1. High temperature resistant housings, GPA12

1. Machined PEEK secondary drive gear sleeve

1. Tension mechanism with grab screw design

1. Mounting screws in line with filament exit path – improving housing stiffness and easier mounting

1. Perfectly aligned filament path

1. New smaller and more stylish PTFE tube input coupler

1. Motor position rotated by additional 10 degrees for easier maintenance and assembly

1. Extremely low backlash ~0.06mm

1. Filament sensor add on with auto load and unload button add on feature

1. And many more small changes to improve mechanical accuracy and design look
