In depth look at whats available for extruders, build types and installs.
lots of information and research to help guide you through the buy or build
process. The forum is building a hi-temp 3d printer that utilizes a pellet extruder built from plans and acquired parts.

This info from mahor design

Firmware configuration

Thermistor

#define TEMP_SENSOR_0 1

Steps per millimeter of the motor (1/16 recommended)

#define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT {  80, 80, 400, 305}

G-code command: M92 E305

^ Home ^

PID calibration

Autotune command via Pronterface or Repetier

G-code command: M303 E0 S200

#define DEFAULT_Kp 39.24

#define DEFAULT_Ki 5.38

#define DEFAULT_Kd 71.52

The extruder from high temp is different, it has a different screw and barrel so this info is for referance only to establish a working setup, once established I will post
