Dragon Hotend standard flow

Dragon is an all-metal hotend, the overall high temperature resistance is up to 500℃, the inner hole of the heatbreak is smooth and the movement resistance is small. Therefore, the filament melts effectively and flows out smoothly without buildup, clogging and other problems to achieve higher quality of final 3D printing.

• Heat break with an ultra-thin wall thickness as thin as 0.1mm, realizing an excellent thermal insulation.
• Increased rigid support structure guarantee the heat break remaining intact under the impact of external force.
• Integral frame rigid structure makes nozzle replacement more convenient without grasping the heat block.
• The inner hole roughness of nozzle and heat break Ra0.3, which allow a more smoother movement of filament, resulting a higher resolution prints.
• Standard hotend and high flow hotend have the same overall dimension, which realize a zero barrier for interchangeability.
• The hotend is mainly composed of copper alloy material which has the advantage of faster heating and better heat dissipation.
• Standard all metal kit, with overall high temperature resistance up to 500 ℃.
• Flexible combined structure design makes a strong compatibility.

1. Well-designed compact structure

Dragon Hotend is composed of Heat Block, Heat Sink Heat Break with delicate structure and compact appearance

2. Superior thermal isolation of heat break

Heat break with an ultra-thin wall thickness as thin as 0.1mm, realizing an excellent thermal insulation.

3. High temperature resistance

The hotend is mainly composed of copper alloy material which has the advantage of faster heating and better heat dissipation. with overall high temperature resistance up to 500 ℃.

4.Reinforced rigid structure

Increased rigid support structure guarantee the heat break remaining intact under the impact of external force. Integral frame rigid structure makes nozzle replacement more convenient without grasping the heat block.

Highlight:

• Superior heat break performance.
• Increased structural rigidity.
• 450°C rated for larger temperature operating range.
• Drop in replacement for E3D V6 hotend. Such as PRUSA printer.
• Supported and recommended hotend for Voron community 3D printers
• The HF version(High Flow Capacity) is the same overall dimensions as the standard one - Painless volcano experience.
• Collision will not break your heaterbreaker anymore.
• Nozzles can be changed with one hand, without grasping the hot block Nickel plating copper alloy in the hot block will not soften at high temperatures in excess of 550℃.

Flowrate

Maximum extrusion flowrate test result (PLA@215C)

• E3D V6 HOTEND copper heater block 1020mm/min ≈ 40.01 mm³/second
• Dragon hotend 1150 mm/min ≈46.08 mm³/second
• Dragon hotend HF 1560 mm/min ≈62.51 mm³/second

A more realistic comparison of the flow rates of the most common hotends

• ~10-12mm3/s for V6

Description

The hotend is the basic hardware component of the 3D printer. A quality hotend must ensure the correct flow ratio to avoid blocking the heatbreak by the material and ensure the print runs smoothly. The new generation of hotends for 3D printers meets these requirements. The Dragon Hotend consists of a heat block, heat sink and heatbreak, which are the best and most finely tuned combination for printing thanks to a research and development team and hundreds of hours of testing and debugging.
