This is an upgrade to the original filament guide that comes with the Ender 3 Pro, designed to enhance the smoothness of filament feeding. The model uses two ball bearings to ensure that the filament spool rotates with minimal friction, providing equal tension to the nozzle. This results in a more consistent and reliable filament feed during prints.
Make sure to have these items on hand before printing to ensure proper assembly and smooth functionality:
To further improve the smoothness and rotation of the ball bearings, it’s recommended to lightly sand the areas where the ball bearings sit. This will ensure an even better fit and reduce any potential friction during use.
