3D Printer Extruder System Basic Introduction

I believe that when it comes to extrusion mechanism, you will often see the terms MK6, MK8, MK10, and V6, they are actually a series of the hot end, extruder, and nozzle combinations together to be a whole system, allowing the filament going through the nozzle from the 3d printer, which we call it as an extrusion system.

MK is the abbreviation of Mark, which represents the version number. The MK6, MK8, MK10 (by Makerbot), and V6 (by E3D) are a range of extrusion systems that combine hot ends, extruders, and nozzles.

What are Mk8 and Mk10

Most 3D printers compatible with Mk8 are compatible with Mk6. This is because MK8 (Makerbot) and Mk6 use the same size of threading.
