Review on Capricorn Extruder by Creality 3D - Assembled for Optimum Performance by Aaron Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

low quality. Best Product for Additive Manufacturing

I just installed this item and found that the temperature sensor is not recognized. He recorded the temperature because he had a broken wire when I checked the resistance. I then encountered the issue of replacing the temperature sensor with a spare sensor which solved my problem. However, after trying to start printing, I found that the heating element takes forever to heat up the fuser. It took so long that my printer gave an error because it never reached the set temperature. Out of curiosity, I changed the position of the wire to the heating element, only to find out I would have the same problem. I am very dissatisfied with this purchase. The quality of the parts used for this item appears to be cheap/defective.

Pros
  • Creality Capricorn tubing is far superior to the white PTFE tubing that comes with most 3D printers. It is much more convenient to feed the thread. And when printing, the extruder resistance is reduced, resulting in a much smoother ride and print quality.
Cons
  • Not sure
