Description
Replacement head for Ultimaker to allow the use of the E3D hotend.
This allows jam free printing at elevated temperatures for PLA, ABS and PC. It can also go phenominally fast. ABS at >150mm/s is no problem, as you can run it at 265deg. This also gives very strong parts with superb surface finish.
It has mounting points that replicate the lower Ultimaker plate, so as you can attach your favorite cooling fan. The E3D head is held in with a single screw and captive nut.

With thanks to Sanjay at E3D for his support!
