Hello Folks
I just wanted to show you my K8200 with my new E3D V6 hotend mounted. I’ve used the original Velleman heater and the original NTC. Both fits just perfect. I have chosen to not mount it to the extruder by printing the mount found on Thingiverse. Instead I’ve used a large washer, which I modified to hold the hotend in place, I’ve used the original bolts and nuts to mount it.

So far I haven’t had any problems with it, it works just perfect 
Best regards
Hello can you explain which modification have you done to the k8200??
I’ve reading that there is some problem on the board. Overheating
Have you used the same structure or where did you get the support for the hotend?
have you done something (actualization, instalation) on the firmaware or software stuff like that??
with this hotend can I print with ninjaflex plocarbonate wood fillament etc etc??

May i drop in here?
I have made a new inner part for the K8200 stock extruder to print ninjaflex with an e3d v6 3mm hotend.
As it has the “groove mount” any e3d hotend with that mount will fit.
(the bowden ones without tube of course, and the 1.75mm ones need tweaking the filament guide hole)
I made no changes to the printer as such and you can print all materials supported by the e3d hotends.
If you use the e3d heater for the hotend you might want to lower the PID_MAX value in firmware to get better
temperature control, but it is not absolutely necesseary.
I’ll try one of the Volcano addons for the hotend to get better results with ninjaflex (SPEED) too if i get one.

Ichbinsnur, so you moved to the e3d hotend, with the bowden addon? Or you got the direct feed and got that working?
I’ve checked out the linked modification, was there a guide on getting it up and running?
I ran into the v5 guide: forum.e3d-online.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=45
Did you follow this or some other guide? Do you have links to the Volcano addons?
Were any firmware changes necessary besides the temperature max range?
Thanks!

I made the linked part myself.
I have a E3D v6 Hotend withh direct coupling which didn’t work at all with flex filaments on the stock extruder.
The filament always buckled up in the filament path.
That made me think about a possible solution and led to the part on thingiverse.
The Direct coupling hotend just sildes into the mout at the lower side of the rewokked inlay.
Just print the part, exchange the bas plate plastic of the extruder for that new one and “plug” your hotend in.
The Volcano is a reshaped Heater/Nozzle block for the V6 hotends.

If you need more help, yust let me know.
