Add LGX Lite Filament Entry Sensor #41

Open Max-Luck opened 8 months ago

Max-Luck commented 8 months ago

I created a Filament Entry Sensor that should work with the LGX Lite.

I'm still learning how to use github/pull requests. I am also working on a tool head sensor based on the the Stealth Orbiter

I have also uploaded this model to: https://www.printables.com/model/719603-lgx-lite-filament-entry-sensor

@Max-Luck Can you please also share the files that you use to attach the LGX lite to the toolhead? Basically these 3 files. Not sure if you want them in this repo but it will be great if you can at least upload them to printables and I will give this a try.

Thanks.

1 is the stealth orbiter mount w/ sensor (https://github.com/sneakytreesnake/StealthOrbiter/blob/main/STL/ORBITERMOUNT_SENSOR_V2.stl)

2 is also the stealth orbiter sensor w/ sensor( :P )

3 is an adapter that lets you use the lgx lite on any orbiter footprint mount. I posted here (https://www.printables.com/model/734724-lgx-lite-orbiter-adapter-stealth-orbiter-adapter)

The pic I posted below might help. By using this adapter you can use a filament entry sensor, and an extruder exit sensor (from the stealth orbiter github). I intend to improve the original design that @sneakytreesnake posted, but got busy with work.

You guys can have them all in the Repo idm. I will amend my pull request when I'm at my desktop next
