Removed RPi.GPIO requirements, replaced it with libgpiod. Only one mode that uses both the distance and the timeout together. To use this plugin a Filament Sensor ...

Most 3D printer motion sensors are bulky, slow to trigger, prone to false positives, and have a high detection distance meaning a large amount material is extruded before actually detecting a runout, ...

I keep up with the trends in 3D printing reasonably well. The other day my friend mentioned that filament thickness sensing had been added to the latest version of the Marlin firmware. I had no idea ...

Just how tight are the manufacturing tolerances of modern FDM printer filament. Inquiring minds want to know, and when such minds are attached to handy fellows like [Thomas Sanladerer], you end up ...

FDM (fused deposition modeling) 3D printers, better known as filament 3D printers, come in a wide range of models, at a wide range of prices, with many different features. Whether you're new to 3D ...
