The Nextruder Heatsink is an awesome piece of mechanical engineering, but it's innovation lies hidden inside the extruder!
Here, the Nextruder is modelling using FEA in Solidworks to simulate the stress it undergoes when probing the heatbed, showing exactly how the location of the strain gauge corresponds with the nozzle force.
Designed for 5 colours (CMYK+Black), with many virtual nozzles created using the brilliant tool ColorMixLab.
Print at 0.15mm High, 10% infill, no supports.
Scaled up to show the colours better (at 1:1 scale it probably needs a 0.2mm nozzle, otherwise you won't get the colour detail).
