MATERIUM – Extrusion System

Assembly & Installation

Materium Firmware (General Requirements)

Whether you’re using Marlin, Klipper, or RRF, Materium is configurable.
This page is only relevant to users configuring Materium without a Toolboard (Barebone)

There are several port requirements for your motherboard that must be met :

  • 1x 24v Heater port for Heater Signal going to the built-in SSR on Materium
  • 1x Thermistor port to read PT1000
  • 2x PWM Fan ports
  • 1x BLTouch/Inductive/Eddy Probe port
  • 1x Stepper port (4-wire)

If your setup is more abstract than the usual RAMPS/Duet/AVR/RPi, just know that it needs to control :

  • Two PWM Fans
  • One PWM Relay
  • One Bipolar Stepper (NEMA17)
  • Read a thermistor (ADC)
  • One Z-Probe (you can ignore this if using a bed-mounted sensor)

Alongside your printer, Materium has its own AC power line which takes RMS300W at 220VAC or 110VAC.
It is helpful to make sure you spare a power outlet right next to the one used with your printer for neatness.

In your firmware, find and make these changes :

  • Steps/mm: 1200 (Marlin/RRF) OR Rotation Distance: 2,7 (Klipper)
  • Microstepping : 16
  • Extruder Max. Accel: 500
  • Extruder Jerk: 5
  • Thermal Sensor : PT1000

That’s it, happy printing!
