How to know if your extruder is compatible with an E3D v6, MK8 and Volcano nozzle

When changing the nozzle of the 3D printer for an E3D Original nozzle, doubts may arise if they are interchangeable. The vast majority of 3D printers if they are compatible with the v6, MK8 and Volcano nozzles since their measurement is the most used M6x1.

Leveling and calibration of the 3D printer base

Users of home 3D printers (FFF/FDM) can often find problems of various types, which may be due to poor filaments, improper printing parameters, poorly-suited conditions for the location of 3D printers (like humid environments, cold or drafts) and lack of maintenance, and calibration of the 3D printer.

3D printing costs

One of the first big questions that comes up when starting in 3D printing is; How much does it cost to make a piece in 3D? Well, let's try to explain the main costs that must be attributed to the printing of a piece to calculate its actual cost of impaction.

Densities and lengths in 3D printing filaments

One of the main doubts in the day to day among users of 3D printing is to know the density of the filament that they will use to know how much material they will consume, and therefore how much material they will need to print a piece in 3D. The (absolute) density is a scalar quantity referred to the amount of mass in a given volume of a substance.

How is it possible to avoid jams in the 3d printer extruder

The main areas of an extruder are the heating block and the dissipation area, although these are formed in turn by several parts. To understand the basic operation of the extrusion process of the filaments in 3D printers, it is essential to understand the functionality of both areas.
