This is the prototype of the improved version of the Orbiter Filament cutter, which is based on the Sherpamini cutter. I reduced the play in the mechanism and designed a better support for the lever.
I tested the function of the cutter by hand with different filaments such as PLA, PETG and ABS.
The cutter can be easily mounted between the hotend and the Orbiter V2. I simply used a spring from a ballpoint pen as a spring for the mechanism.
Update 03/2025
I uploaded the STEP file of the original assembly and also my two files “Base_v1.step” and
“Cover_v2.step”.
Update 01/2025
I made the cover 0,3mm thinner for smother movement.
The old version pressed to much in the blade.
See the new picture with the green cover.
The file is called “Cover V2”
This is a prototype that is not yet completely finished!
