[FR] 2x Mixing Extruders - 4 Bowden Feeds #19449

Open dcwalmsley opened 4 years ago

dcwalmsley commented 4 years ago

I have a custom printer that needs firmware features added to allow for each Color-Mixing Extruder to receive filament from 2x bowden inputs.

I currently have 2x extruders that receive 2x inputs for each unit but the current firmware does not allow me to take advantage of this configuration for normal printing or for Color-Mixing.

At this moment I can use both extruders as a single filament nozzle unit only.

Request your skill to make this work.

~thanks

I have the same request. There is also a hotend from e3d called krakclops ( kraken with 2 cyclops nozzles) that works like this, but not supported by marlin till now
