The New Nozzle?

Hi,


I noticed there's a new "steel neck" Cetus3D nozzle available in the store. 


0.4mm-2-770x480.jpg

Are there any details about this new nozzle anywhere (i.e. what changed, how it's better, does it handle higher temperatures, etc)?


Regards.

I purchased a value pack as ordinary order. 

the new full metal nozzles has already been included.


when I used a old nozzle, the plastic part came off the metal part.

(it happened when I remove it from extruder.)


but, the new nozzle will not come off . very good.

Sorry to dig up this old post, but I thought I'd add some thoughts as I just bought some new nozzles. I've only tried the new 0.4mm one so far, but I've noticed that some of my prints show signs of underextrusion; there seems to be thinner layers in some regions of the print:

On the left is the new nozzle and on the right is the old one, both printed with Red Inland PLA filament with the following settings:
0.2mm layer height
20% infill
"Fast" setting
no raft
no supports
everything else is default

It's not the easiest to see due to contrast, but the left print has a lot more horizontal gaps than the other one on the right, located near the center mostly. I have a lot of z-scars that I still need to take care of, but that's consistent on both so it's a separate issue.

I've also been having problems attempting to "withdraw" the filament; there are a lot of clicking sounds after the filament is withdrawn a certain amount. Perhaps the filament is blobbing up in the nozzle somewhere and getting stuck?
I also noticed that the nozzle seems to be oozing a lot more than normal, and the new nozzle is a lot hotter near the cold end than the old one (probably because of the new metal body). Not sure if all of the inter-relate.
