FAQ

Can I use my 3D Printer?

The extruder can be attached to almost any 3D printer. Due to the QZMini’s compact dimensions, we recommend using an open-frame FDM machine.

Each printer model requires a specific connector cable and holder to attach the QZMini. For this reason, when purchasing your extruder, please select your printer model from the dedicated menu.

Should I remove the original extruder from my 3D printer?

No, you don’t have to. The QZMini can be attached to your existing extruder using a customized holder.

What is included in with the QZMini extruder?

QZMini Extruder (150ml material capacity)
4-Pin XH 2.54
x2 Nozzle diameter 2mm/4mm
Syringe holder
Printer holder

The provide holder doesn't fit my printer!

The provided holder may not fit your printer for several reasons. For example, you may have removed the original extruder, or you may want to couple the QZMini in a different way. If this is the case, we encourage you to print a custom holder that perfectly fits your setup. Alternatively, feel free to contact us for assistance.

Which material can I use with the extruder?

The QZMini is a ram extruder, so the extrusion performance depends on the balance between the material density and the nozzle diameter.
In general, we recommend using materials with a smaller granule size and low to medium viscosity and density. And yes, you can print clay with the QZMini!
