New Filament Stabilizer for the Filament Maker TWO

The Filament Stabilizer keeps the filament steady so it measures right 

What it is ?

A small tool that stabilizes the filament on the sensor plate, preventing movement and vibration from fans or unbalanced spools.

 

Why use it ?

Keeps the filament steady at the sensor for accurate measurements, helps produce smooth and even spools and improves print quality by preventing over- or under-extrusion.

 

How to install it ?

1. Find the filament sensor plate in the extrusion area. Stabilizer install 1
 
2. Put the stabilizer on top and slot it in the back of the sensor plate

Caution

The stabilizing handlebar should touch the filament softly, do not overtighten the bar! This might cause unforeseen flow issues or scars on the extruded filament.
