RUG/Pennsylvania/State College/Printers/PSU Unit Mondo
On this page you will find the current status of the Unit M Mondo. Our Mendel Unit is a Techzone laser-cut Mondo. So far, we have replaced the extruder (11/8/12) since the Techzone wooden extruder used springs to tension the idler. The new extruder improves this by using two bolts to tighten the idler. Update: (11/29/12) optical endstops were replaced with mechanical endstops and firmware was upgraded. An overhead filament holder was added to keep the filament from tangling on the table. Eventually the plan is to use this large unit with a dual extruder. Much more information can be found at RUG/Pennsylvania/State_College/Dual_Extruder
