Recommend me a hotend for the Turnigy Fabrikator

[raybies]

Hi.

My hotend burnt before I could print anything, can anyone recommend a hotend which doesn't require modding the printer or losing Z?
URL and pics would be awesome.

Thanks

Oops.. thought I posted this in "3D Printer Parts, Filament & Materials", mod can you move it pls?

I was curious to try the autolift hot ends, because in dual it seemed cunning.

The Printrbot metal hot end is real great (I have it) and smallish but I think the smallest is the E3Dv6 (or at least that's what they wrote).

Is the total height of the E3Dv6 62mm? Do you know if it's a straight swap, bcos on rcgroups I was recommended the E3D lite, but then I had to change settings in the fw, drill holes and reduce my z axis, it's only 100mm currently .

Thanks.

I asked the E3D support team the dimension and they sent me a schematic with all the dimensions. Can't find it right now though.

You can get that from Printrbot support webpage as well for the new metal hot end.
