Hello,
I’m actively looking for a spare part to change my cr10 v3 nozzle kit just as it came from the factory. I can’t find any nozzle kit with the right adapter (to attache the direct drive). I only found nozzle kit without adapter and wrong screw thread (can’t use the original adapter) from non official brand. Can you help me please?
You’re very welcome, if you are looking for a replacement hotend you may be able to source one directly from Creality. I am not 100% sure if the Spider V2 or Spider V3 hotends fit the CR10 V3 but might be worth contacting customer support for clarification. You can contact them via: cs@creality.com
There are also third party hotends available for the V3 such as the Micro-Swiss hotends.
I have heard of a few people that have ordered them and have had great success with them, being able to change nozzles without heating the hotend seems quite nice too. I am tempted to get one when my K1 is back up and running properly
Yeah I have seen quite a few “compatible” kits on eBay but I always wonder how many mods, tweaks or workarounds would be needed to get it working properly and efficiently
I have created a new thread for K1 hotend chatter so hopefully some people with experience of the third-party hotends will share their feedback
Nikoli -maybe you can help me.
I have old CR-10S (30cmx30cmx40cm) - it worked perfectly for many years. Recently it stoped to fuse layers. I thought that problem is with temperature sensor or heating element so I replaced it. Now, when preheating to PLA, it reaches 80degC and thats it. My thought: maybe something wrong with motherboard or power supply. I tried to buy replacement motherboard but two sites which offered it declined claiming that it is no longer available. What options will you suggest? Can this be as simple as reloading firmware? Can I replace electronic box with newer version? I am stuck - please help
Tom
