This project is intended to convert a Tronxy 3D printer into a syringe extruder capable of extruding clay, dough, chocolate, frosting, or similar materials from a plastic syringe. The design is intended to re-use the existing motion platform and extruder stepper motor in a new configuration with mostly 3D printed parts. The CAD is done in OpenSCAD.
The initial design will use a plastic 60cc syringe that may be increased to 150cc if successful.
3D printed parts:
- Carriage mount for motor and syringe
- Plunger holder
Non 3D printed parts:
- 5mm to 1/4" shaft coupler
- 300mm 1/4"-20 threaded rod
- 2x 1/4"-20 nuts
