New REXY Kinematics on duet firmware possible?

I don't fully understand why the Z axis needs such a relatively complicated belt layout.
It looks like a winch to double up lifting-power?

direct drive extruder but with extruder motor outside of the axis
Just wondering if the long belt is better than a long Bowden tube. Definitely better than the remote cable driven extruders IMHO.
I'd like to see how they translated the vertical rotation of the filament-drive wheel into the usual horizontal filament gear orientation. Please tell me, they don't use a worm gear

@o_lampe they use a bevelgear

I've got three printers using Nimble v1.2 units and they work just fine.
The v2.x units did not work well at all.

That would explain the belt layout - but why not just use a stepper with the needed gear ratio?
I'm not a fan of long belt runs.

I think the idea is to get away from a long bowden tube and eliminate the need for pressure advance?
At least this is what i'm trying to accomplish.Jim
Please keep up the good work, I use the Duet3D on all my Printers and a few other things ;-D

@zabana hey did you try this idea? I was debating doing the same on my new printer. I'm worried the long belt will cause some unforeseen issues, I personally would either do CoreXE or a markforged IDEX style one (the second X would be continuous and move the extruder)
also I don't get why RRF doesn't support these mechanics, wouldn't they just be a regular cartesian? with the expection of X moving 45 degrees if the y stepper isn't locked.

AFAIK we support all the combinations of cartesian/coreXYZ/markforged for movement axis. you define the relationships between the axis and the drives in M669 as a matrix
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/M669#Section_Parameters_for_Cartesian_CoreXY_CoreXZ_CoreXYU_CoreXYUV_MarkForged_kinematics_RRF_2_03_and_later_onlyWhere this (and other recent threads) differ is adding the extruder into the mix. It gets complicated because of support for pressure advance on the extruder and will get more complex again with input shaping on the movement axis.

@t3p3tony we wrote nearly the same

@joergs5 yep!
