The Kraken - The World's First Dual Pinch Wheel Extruder! (IndieGoGo Pitch)

The Kraken is the first dual pinch wheel extruder available for filament based 3D Printers. But that's not all, it's also the smallest dual nozzle extruder available!

The Kraken brings a host of benefits, and is truly a revolution in filament based extruder technology. By upgrading to the Kraken, you will instantly be able to print faster, print more accurately, print larger and best of all print more reliably than ever before, revolutionising the productivity and enjoyment you will get from your 3D printer!

Make sure the word gets out - the Kraken is coming, straight from the BrainyDeep!

Hi Fluless,

Certainly can, all you need is a bowden tube holder which suits a J-Head slot mount. I believe I've seen some on thingiverse.

The great thing about using a printable chassis is that any upgrades that we or the community develop are accessible to everyone. With respect to this, if there's enough interest, we might release a chassis with a bowden cable holder.

Thanks for the feedback!

Hey is there any updates on this ? I would love to make or buy one !

[Fluless]

Hey great concept! any ideas if your design could work as a bowden extruder?

[Bobo]

Are there plans to make this, or any where you can purchase this at?

[Brainydeep]

James, you can try our latest open source extruder. It is tailored for high resolution rather than top speed but works on a similar principle to the Kraken.

I need one of that !!!
where I can buy it ??

[morganearp]

The resolution (0.02 mm) is a steal at that price.  What exactly is the build volume?

[kattejuice]

Brilliant extruder and very well made video you make to feature it!
May I ask what music it is that you used in the video?

[belgadrone]

Can i build it on my ultimaker 1?

Thanx

[azyfloof]

Is this gonna be released as an open source project? I image many people would be interested to know when you're gonna *release the Kraken*

Fair dinkum mate, that looks like a cool build, yeah the height of the wades is too much, you used the KISS method.

I don't want to be a poppy chopper, Q: with the 2 extruders wont their be a need for software to tell the extrude/hot end how to operate, or would there be some form of offset in the firmware to tell it where to print ? I'm trying to wrap my noggin around how this would work, all up, it looks good.

One good place to show this would be on the actual RepRap wiki, show it to those guys and see what they think, would be a good place to get exposure.

[AdrianCiubotariu]

this looks like something that needed a bit more exposure... I would have bought this without blinking... :(

[MrMonkeykiller]

so is he a inventor or a motivational speaker XD

Nice, the best solution that I can see with 2 extruder ... I recently build an extruder with pipe cooler made from old notebook fan .. check it ;)

[kil]

looking good man, nice design is it going to be open source?

What a crap print at 350mm/s... Also, Hotend and extruded filament Fan is missing.

[HiHoWillyO]

Eh, it extrudes a lot. Not worth it to me.
