Description

Here is my take on the Prusa CORE One MMU3—introducing the Community version! This setup mounts the entire MMU3 unit directly on top of the printer, with an integrated buffer and spool holders.

In addition to the printed parts (you'll need around 4.5 kg of filament), you’ll also need some extra fasteners (see the table below) and a longer MMU cable to connect the MMU3 unit to the CORE One. Be sure to check the parts list and notes before starting your build.

Keep in mind, this is still a work in progress, and some tweaking may be needed to get everything dialed in for your specific setup.

A Note on Future Development
I am excited to release it to the community and encourage users to take it forward, creating remixes, improvements, and new attachments. I look forward to seeing what you create! However, I want to be transparent that neither I nor anyone else in the Prusa team will be actively developing or maintaining this model, as we are focusing our efforts on the next generation MMU system, which is completely different.
