Auto Pellet Dispenser

Pellet 3D printing as easy and comfortable as filament printing.

Automatic Operations
Fully automatic feedstock supply to the LILY pellet extruder.
Totally Autonomous
The dispenser utilizes his own power supply, electronic board and code.
Adjustable Air Pressure
Adjust the air pump power to the pellet density and the distance between the extruder and dispenser.
2,5 kg of pellets
Standard feedstock capacity. Easily scalable up to 8kg.
Low noise System
Low noise air pump, 45 db (A) (1m distance and 10 CMH20).
Open Source
The Dispenser PCB uses an open source code, allowing modifications.
"The LILY Kit helped me to start my production and sell out 80+ self-designed flower vases. I couldn't be more satisfied!"

Automatic Feedstock Supply

The Auto Pellet Dispenser supplies granule feedstock, whenever the LILY Pellet Extruder needs it. For this to work fully automatically an IR level sensor can be connected to the dispenser PCB. For the LILY Pellet Extruder our open-source PCB code computes the IR level sensor signals and efficiently controls the feeding sequence. The granule feedstock is rapidly supplied in bursts of few seconds, which allows for the system to switch to stand by mode between opeartions.

Air Pressure Regulator
‍‍
Air The air pump regulator knob allows to adjust the air pressure to the feedstock weight and geometry. As well as to the feeding tube length.

Mini USB Connector
‍‍
The mini USB connector gives you the possibility to upgrade the code version and/or upload your own.

IR Level Sensor Connector
‍‍‍
Automatic triggering of the dispenser is possible via the IR level sensor connector.

Completely Autonomous

The Auto Pellet Dispenser utilizes its own electronics board and power supply. It requires no power from the printer or connection to the 3D printer. This removes compatibility issues and make the Auto Pellet Dispenser a true Plug & Play system.

Electronic Brain
The independent electronic brain of the Auto pellet Dispenser is our self -developed,  open-source and ATMEGA based PCB (ATMEGA32U4-AU)

NEMA 17 Pancake
‍‍
The NEMA 17 stepper motor allows for precise movements, which ensures controlled dispensing of pellets into the conveyor airflow. This ensures reliable and consistent feedstock supply to the extruder.

Long Distance Feedstock Travel
The 7.5 Kpa and 240 L/min max capacity of the DC blower generates an air flow strong enough to carry granule feedstock  across a 3m distance between dispenser and extruder or through a up to 5m long feeding tube.
