## Overview

The primary purpose of this IDEX (Independent Dual EXtrusion) printer is to enable dual material prints for soluble/removable supports (ie, ABS primary material + HIPS support material). Other methods of printing dual materials within a single toolhead (such as using a Y splitter, MMU, Palette, etc) have issues due to mixing/contamination within the nozzle which may cause poor layer adhesion. As well, these methods require fairly substantial purge blocks, which generally can be avoided with an IDEX design!
