INDX Upgrade print speed for one color compared to the standart core one setup
Do we know anything about INDX Upgrade printing speed for one color compared to the standart core one setup. I'm really tempted to buy the INDX Upgrade when it is free for sale. I mainly see my self printing enginering prints in one color, maybe with more matrials and sometimes more colors, but do i pay with much slower one color prints. Is there anything official regarding this?

If the numbers being mentioned by the Bondtech guys are real, and I see no reason why they wouldn't be, they're saying 40mm³/s which is a pretty drastic increase in flow rate, I think the Nextruder with HF nozzle is around 25mm³/s maximum.
Those are very safe numbers, Mikolas from Prusa said the Bondtech guys were hitting 60 mm³/s with PLA... which is just wild.
Of course there will be other factors to consider, kinematics, cooling, filament type etc...but there should be a significant boost in achievable print speeds.

The one downside to printing the the INDX is obtaining a decent chamber temp for engineering filaments. There will be an increased chamber volume, one which is still being passively heated with the print bed. I'm curious if it will still be possible to get the 55-60° temps that I have now to work with.
If Prusa ever came out with a Core One HT (high temp) I would buy one in a heartbeat (if it didn't break the bank).

Yeah this is all still yet to be seen...it'll be interesting to see the difference with the added chamber volume.
