Welcome!
Welcome to the M3D Promega's User Manual.
Features
Expandable
The Promega is expandable, meaning you can customize it to suit your needs. These are 4 possible extruder configurations.
The Compound nozzle is a dual mixing nozzle, which takes in two filaments and either prints one at a time or mixes them together.
A standard Promega will come with this extruder.
The K'Tana hot end is two, independent nozzles for dual printing.
K'Tana nozzles are seamless, long nozzles that include a thin-wall heat break to reduce energy consumption and eliminate leaks.
The Quad extruder takes in four filaments and can either print one at a time or mix for blended colors.
You can create beautiful color prints using our CMYK color-calibrated mixing filament.
Our high-temp extruder add-on allows you to extrude materials up to 350 C.
This upgrade is ideal for printing high-temp materials such as PEEK, if you are producing small prints.
For larger prints, you may need a more robust system upgrade. If you are interested in this, please fill out this form.
Feel free to browse the part store for more.

Contributing
Please feel free to add suggestions to any of the guides by creating a pull-request or issue on GitHub. This manual is hosted in Github.com via Gitbook.com.
The main way to collaborate to the guides is to become a collaborator. But sometimes you simply want to submit a small contribution, without becoming a regular collaborator.
On GitHub, one can use the popular Pull Request feature. To do so, you would clone https://github.com/PrintM3D/Promega-Docs, make changes on your own copy, and submit back your changes by submitting a Pull Request to M3D. Then we will review the changes accordingly.
