Surprisingly Way Better

Did an extruder test using mihai inconsistent extruder test where I compared the vz hextrudort low plus to the galielo 2 stand alone, and surprisingly it has lower artifact in my opinion.

Great kit

Really well put together kit. Everything you need for GE2 extruder (other than printer parts, of course).
Big improvement to grip on the filament which offset the additional resistance from ERCF and auto-rewind spools and keeps ABS flowing consistently at 32 mm3/s for ABS with 0.8mm high flow nozzle.

Good Product!

Easy setup and Klipper configuration. Feeds better than standard Stealthburner. Load/Unload of filament is very straight forward.

The only slight flaw for me was it took a bit of fiddling to figure out the correct tension adjustment. 10 minutes of experimentation had that going.

As always West3D is a great vendor to do business with!

Description

Here, finally, is the upgrade/replacement to the Galileo 1 Extruder!  We have both the G2E a Voron Stealthburner drop-in Extruder and G2Z (G2ZXL) Z-Drives for V2-style printers (including V2, Micron, etc.).

From the official GitHub project page:

  • Galileo 2 is a full redesign, moving to a 9:1 gear ratio and optimizing the gearbox design over Galileo 1. No parts from Galileo 1 are reused with Galileo 2.
  • Custom 9T stepper with a taller spur gear resulting in 20% higher contact surface area than existing 10T stepper designs, resulting in better wear characteristics and power transfer.
  • Proper meshing of gears due to number of stepper teeth being divisible by number of planets (9T sun / 3 planets), which gives even loading on the planets / sun gear and improves wear characteristics and power transfer. Previous designs with 10T steppers had uneven loading on the planet gears.
  • G2XL uses Nema17 (LDO-42STH40-1684AC) which are considerably larger and provide more holding torque
