Micro Swiss Bowden Dual Gear Extruder Compatible with Creality Ender, CR10, CR-10 Pro, CR-10S, CR6-SE, Tornado

Eye-popping price. Despite the brand hype and good reviews, just couldn’t bring myself to do it for the longest time. That was a mistake. Could’ve saved myself plenty of wasted parts and product and under-extrusion headaches by opting for a genuine upgrade years ago. It’s been the best addition to my printing setup since I bought a can of Aqua Net hairspray and it’s making my old, original CR-10 shine again. Still think the price is outrageous, but the quality is undeniable. Super pleased with this product.

Absolutely everything else about this product is amazing. The build quality is great. The dual extrusion gears are very solid and grip amazingly. But the compression system for holding the tube in place is absolutely trash. It doesnt matter how far I put it on how tight I tighten it it pretty much pops immediately. Complete and total waste of time.

Does a great job and easy to install the instructions are really straightforward did have to calibrat my steps after install but worth every penny.

After my metal Creality extruder bit the dust after 5 rolls of filament I looked for a dual-gear extruder, and I couldnt be happier with this one. it shipped fast, was easy to install, filament loads easily, and it shipped super fast. The machining quality looks good as well, and the design eliminates many of the weaknesses of the Creality model. Im confident that this extruder will last a good while.

Easy install, worked very well right away. Nice quality.

Put the thing together and once the filament is loaded the bowden tube will not stay in the end, just slides out. Gears will not touch so might as well not be a dual gear teath just skip. Used with 1.75mm filament

This is the best upgrade you can purchase for your printer. The tolerances are exact, the dual feed gears mesh together really well, the tension system is great. No more chatter, not more failure to feed forward. I works perfectly. I did have to buy a new stepper motor because mine came with a pressed on gear, but the new one was $11. Installation was easy. Go for it, spend the money, you will not regret it.

For the price I thought I was getting a stainless steel part, but its all aluminum. It works so far.

This is the right product... If youre looking for an aftermarket extruder, you should be looking for something with dual gears and a notch in the gears for filament location. If you know that much, then youll also know that the next available option is almost TRIPLE the price. Why I picked this one isnt based on price, but due to design. Having the gears open allows for easy cleaning when needed. The hardened steel teeth in the gears will get gunked up with softer materials when the spring tension isnt correct. However, setting the tension is as simple as tuning the grippy knob/nut at the back (easily accessible). The only downside for CR-6 SE users is that you have to print an adapter plate. Its a very simple part, but if youre having issues with your 3D printer, it may be hard to actually print something. Just saying ;) Happy printing!

Less than 3 days of use, not even running 24/7. Grinding noise coming from extruder. Upon further inspection, the drive gear broke off around the grub screw causing it to skip and ultimately allow the motor to spin freely.
