Unless you plan to buy a suitable carriage as well, this will not mount on the stock XYZ carriage.

There is an optical sensor on the board across from it that detects the light and dark patterns as it spins.

My left extruder will not pull the filament anymore, or at least not consistently. That silver wheel is pretty wobbly compared to the other extruder (the other wobbles very very little). The brass gear is also pretty worn compared to the other. You can see how worn in the pictures. The other extruder has been barely used so you can see the difference. The springs look fine also I think.

I see that the silver wheel can probably come off pretty easily (not sure yet), I see just a plate attached and it will probably pop off. I just need a replacement. As for the brass wheel, that looks pressed on to the motor shaft. Would I have to buy a new motor with brass wheel attached already?

Has anyone dealt with this before?  Any idea where to get suitable parts or if this is even fixable?  I already put in a ticket with XYZPrinting support.  I'm not sure I will get anywhere with them but I figured I would try.

Also on a side note, what is that silver wheel and the brass gear called technically? Extruder gear, wheel, etc.?  Just so I am searching with the correct terminology.
