INDX Conversion Kit [CORE One L/+]

Summary The INDX is an extremely fast, highly efficient toolchanger system with up to eight independent toolheads that seamlessly integrates with your CORE One+ 3D printer. Each material gets its own dedicated path, so you can combine rigid and flexible parts, use easy-to-remove or dissolvable supports, switch nozzle sizes in the same print, and print multi-color models without throwing half of the spool to waste. Description The INDX - A brief overview Three numbers that define the INDX Up to 8 Tools COMBINE COLORS & MATERIALS For beautiful, colorful prints with virtually zero waste and no color cross-contamination Only ~12 s Per Material Swap The INDX is the fastest 8-tool solution on the market, bar none ~0.013 g Plastic waste per one swap No huge pile of plastic poop next to your printer, no massive wipe tower stealing print volume What's in the conversion kit You can pick the 8-Tool kit or a 4-Tool kit (it can be later upgraded to 8 tools). In both cases, you will receive everything you need to install the kit, including a toolset and an easy-to-follow guide. The installation requires you to diassemble a part of your machine, remove the extruder and install the new parts. Users report it takes them about 5-6 hours. The CORE One L+ with the INDX upgrade installed has a print volume of 298×275×330mm. The Innovations that Drive the INDX Only one active component - less complexity, lower price, easier to use. Printing with up to 8 materials may seem like a complex job. Here's how Prusa made it so effortless. High‑Speed Nozzle Swapping in Just 12 Seconds Single-nozzle multi-material systems spend roughly 42 seconds on every single filament swap. They must retract, cut, feed, and flush the hotend, wasting time and plastic on every layer. The INDX toolchanger is much more efficient - requires merely 12s per change. Cold in the Dock, Hot in Seconds The moving head carries an induction coil which heats the nozzle wirelessly in seconds. It grips a nozzle, brings it to working temperature nearly instantly, and lets it cool again the moment it parks, so it does not ooze. Active Head, Passive Toolchangers Each parked tool is a nozzle and a dock - no electronics. All the intelligence lives in the head that collects them, so adding four more tools is inexpensive - it's four passive nozzle instead of four active toolheads. The nozzle measures the bed before every print The tip presses down on the sheet and a load cell reads the force, so the machine knows exactly where the bed is. This is much more precise than optical solutions, and you can switch nozzles and tools as much as you want without recalibrating the printer every time. Advanced Nozzle Wiper The built-in two-way nozzle wiper is the key to beautiful prints and minimum waste. Every time a new tool is picked up, only a tiny fraction of plastic is extruded to stabilize the pressure in the nozzle. The nozzle is cleaned to prevent any stray blobs from contaminating the print. Self‑adjusting grip for different materials Soft materials need a gentler grip than rigid, fiber-filled ones. The INDX features a unique mechanism that adjusts the drive gear tension automatically, so you can move from TPU to rigid engineering filaments without stopping to retune the extruder. Always Ready to Print Load eight filaments, install different nozzle sizes from 0.25 to 0.8. When you start a print, everything's already ready and loaded. Just pick the right tool. If you like to use different filaments and nozzles, and hate constantly swapping everything around, the INDX is the solution for you. Automatic Tool Offset Calibration The state-of-the-art offset calibration system is permanently mounted outside the print area. 20x Faster than calibration pin: It takes just 15 seconds per toolhead. Improved Repeatability: Streamlines setup while delivering highly consistent results.
