This is a stepper paste extruder in bowden style. It is ment to be used with a silicon tube(6mm OD) and bowden connector(PC6-M6) in the front.
The silicone tube leads to the printhead made out of anything you want(needle, silicone cap..)
The tube that is the main part of the extruder is a PVC pipe(50mm OD and 1.8mm thick walls)
soon to be replaced with food grade INOX pipe of the same size.
