bdwidth sensor is an optical width and motion sensor for 3D printer.

Feature:

1. Adjust the flow rate in real time
2. Pause the printer while the filament jams and runout
3.  Width accuracy: +/- 0.01mm
4.  Connection: USB port or I2C port
5.  No calibration required
6.  Firmware update from the usb

Package list:
