The printer need to be tuned at least for extruder e-stepts and flow as it has plastic to metal contact which requires certain tolerances. The Open Trickler can be printed in various materials.
- Main Material: ABS/PETG/PLA you name it.
- Belt: TPU 95A.
- 4x walls
- 5x tops and bottoms layers.
- 0.4~0.45mm line width
- 40% infill.
You should print provided STL with default orientation. NO SUPPORT IS NEEDED FOR ALL PRINTED PARTS.
The Open Trickler Controller is split into following projects:
- Custom PCB with Raspberry Pi Pico Raspberry Pi Pico Motor Expansion Board
- Firmware that utilises the Raspberry Pi RP2040 micro controller OpenTrickler RP2040 Controller
If you're a developer and would like to port the OpenTrickler to other platform/scale, you could use the mounting pattern as specified below. The interface is guaranteed to be consistent between minor revisions.
