Topic: multi extruder and multi operation
so I'm designing my own ultimate printer of sorts.
I'm gonna go with a bunch of extruders, probably on the order of five or more. What I want to know is this:
I see that in slic3r you can specify support material extruders, outer wall extruders, infill extruders, all separate. Good.
I also see that you can specify different parts of the stl to be different materials! Also good.
Here is what I want to know, can you do both of those things at the same time? Can you have your different extruder for dissolvable support material and then one nozzle is normal abs, then one is ninjaflex, and then the ninjaflex one always infills the ninjaflex sections, but the dissolvable only prints the dissolvable support, and I can have one or two of the main abs extruders working on the abs section?
my arrangement that I've been thinking of is as follows:
1 e3d volcano for dissolvable support.
1 specialty material extruder, also e3d, for strange filaments such as nylon or ninjaflex
2 normal extruders for 2 colors of normal abs
1 volcano for high thickness high speed infill or high speed, high strength structural prints in normal abs
The way everything is worded it appears that I can have nozzles set to their own jobs for one material prints, OR I can have different nozzles do different materials, but not both?
