Clearance – E3D Titan Aero Kit

By combining the Titan and V6 into a single package it has made the overall system 25mm shorter, meaning 25mm of greater print height! With a V6 and Titan combo the hotend is simply held in place using a groovemount, but with the Titan Aero because the hotend is fully integrated and bolted onto the extruder it is extremely rigid. The Titan Aero will much more accurately follow the motion system of a 3D Printer, even at very high accelerations.

There is an even greater advantage to the 25mm reduction in length, this means a 25mm shorter filament path. This is important because 3D Printer filament acts like a spring, so when you start to extrude there is a time lag between when the hobbed pulley moves, and when the filament will extrude from the nozzle, the same applies when you finish extruding. Therefore the Titan Aero is a much more responsive system leading to overall better print quality.

The Titan Aero has a fully guided filament path, with no gaps for buckling of flexible filaments. The fully constrained path from extruder to meltzone means flexible filaments are now very easy to print and pain free.

The heatsink on the Titan Aero can dissipate just as much heat as the V6, it has also been rigorously tested in a whole range of environments to insure, that like with the V6, jams are a non-issue.

With an adjustable tensioner system you can easily set the desired tension to a repeatable value. With a quick release lever on the idler, the extrusion can be easily stopped or filament changed.

The Titan Aero was designed with maintenance in mind. The hobbed pulley is open, and easily accessible for cleaning with out taking the extruder apart. The shape of the drive gear teeth have been specially designed so filament debris flakes off cleanly. The accessible thumb wheel makes manual extrude, purge, and filament changes a breeze. The inside of the Titan can be accessed within one minute, using only one allen key. It reassembles just as quickly.
