Micro Swiss Direct Drive Extruder for Creality CR-10 / Ender 3 Printers

Fixed a good bit of my issues with the stock extruder! Be aware that with the extra weight you may have to look into getting dual Z, just a little deeper into the rabbit hole. All in all, solid upgrade!

Easy install. No tweaking required. Fast setup. No complaints apart from how it brings your nozzle a little further forward. 100% would recommend. MUST HAVE!!

This thing rocks. 10/10 would recommend. You dont need to do this to make your printer print better if everything is running fine stock, but it is absolutely worth it if your printer is messed up and needs replacement parts anyway.

I don’t normally take the time to write a Amazon review but I was just about to donate my CR10S (cuz I have Bambu P1P now) however after upgrading from a generic DD to dual direct drive micro Swiss all I can say is wow! I’m offloading some of my structural prints from Bambu to this unit and doing my TPU on this unit. See pics. Very impressed.

I used this to replace a worn out extruder on a Tevo Tornado (CR10 Clone). The process went very smoothly and after adjusting the Z Offset its been printing beautifully. Im using this system to print Taulman 230 Nylon and the direct drive handles this filament very well. If youre thinking about converting a Bowden system to a direct drive Id highly recommend this one.

I had clogging issues. It is a fault of Microswiss. If you have clogging issues. Look up thermal paste Microswiss either on reddit or google. Without that fix, I had clogging and nozzle leaking issues that didnt matter the settings I tuned to. It is a cheap fix and something microswiss needs to include in the kits. Directdrive setup is perfect. Printing PLA, PLA+, PETG, TPU nicely now.

I never did get good prints from mine. Ended up selling the whole printer and starting over with a new one.

This is an update to my last response. I thought it was the all metal hotend that was the problem with it not printing right but it was actually that since I have a enclosure and have no air flow the filament was just extruding no sticking or anything so this is a great product just make sure if you have an enclosure keep the door of it open if your printer istn printing right.

It ruined me Ender 3.

You really can’t go wrong with this extruder and hot end for its beautiful design, efficient extrusion, and no clog hot end because the filament passes through directly. And it also works best with the printable suggested cooking fan housing keeping everything tidy, cool, and out of the way of your print. I originally bought this to add next to a Hemera combo but after having issues with that, I ended up replacing three more with this combo. It’s very reliable and easy to keep running.
