What the Micro Swiss Bowden Dual Gear Extruder does

The Micro Swiss Bowden Dual Gear Extruder is a Bowden extruder upgrade designed to provide controlled, consistent filament feeding on Bowden-style 3D printers. It is built as a bolt-on replacement for most Bowden extruder machines on the market and uses the same quality construction as Micro Swiss Direct Drive extruders.

Key features of the Bowden dual gear extruder

  • Dual-drive train for positive filament engagement
  • Hardened tool steel gears for durable filament drive components
  • CNC precision cut gears for accurate mechanical fit and motion
  • Adjustable filament grip to fine-tune pressure on the filament path
  • Easy filament loading for simpler loading and handling
  • Outstanding extrusion control for more consistent feeding behaviour
