Interested in experimenting with multi-material prints? Chimera+ is a two filament, two nozzle HotEnd. A versatile dual extrusion system that can print two different filament types in one print.
Interested in dual colour printing? Cyclops is E3D's 2 filament, 1 nozzle, dual colour HotEnd? The use of a single nozzle makes bed levelling simple compared to dual nozzle setups.
Compatibility
Chimera+ is compatible with the E3D ecosystem, meaning you can upgrade your setup to your desired specifications. Choose from our range of heater blocks, temperature sensors, heater cartridges and nozzles.
Cyclops+ maintains compatibility with the Cyclops nozzles and heatbreaks, however, it uses its own unique heater block and nozzle.
Multimaterial
The use of two independently temperature-controlled heater blocks allows the possibility of printing two different filament types at once. For example, you can print with two different coloured PLA filaments at once for dual coloured prints. Or you can use two different filament types such as PLA and a PVA support material for complex shapes with cleaner support removal.
Water cooling
The water-cooled variant of Chimera + is useful for heated build chambers where air cooling is not suitable i.e. ambient temperatures more than 40°C. This makes Chimera + one of our most versatile HotEnds, enabling high-temperature printing of materials such as PEEK with a suitable high-temperature support material.
Cyclops + can be used with an exceptionally light-weight, effective water-cooled heatsink, compatible with the E3D water-cooling kit and nylon tubing.
Please note the Cyclops + is only suitable for printing two of the same filament types i.e a green PLA and a blue PLA. If you are interested in printing two different materials, check out either the Chimera + or the ToolChanger.
