I also mounted the end stops on the extruder carriage. I am using a double extruder from Micron 3DP. Please see the attached pictures.
Hi liquid, it makes more sense to use a screw from a mechanical point of view. Assuming you use timing belt, let's say the stepper gives in, then...
liquid, my advise regarding z axis: keep the lead screw, forget the belt.
liquid, it just occurred to me that the section with dimensions I sent you yesterday is for the situation where one used the 12 mm thick spacers....
I was looking earlier at the Maximus build and was wondering, what if one moved the y axis motor from the end of the moving x axis (where it is...
Hi liquid, it seems like the best way is to precision cut them. Please find attached pictures for reference, the only difference is that I used...
Hi MK, Please find attached pictures. I use a similar system for x-axis, but with two 20x40 bars parallel, driven each by a nema 17 stepper, gt2...
since i am a beginner with electronics etc, will just go ahead and ask: would the smoothieboard 5x and this sucker:...
Hi Venkatesh, There is a very simple way to determine the moments of inertia for the v-slots. Open an AutoCAD file with the section you wish to...
and for those who like to build their own 3d solids, here is a tooth sections table for some of the major standards in use today.
a quick update regarding the two files above: the 3d pulleys are blocks, they can be used as such or they can be exploded to 3d objects. the files...
Hi Jason, please find attached two dwg files containing each a 3d drawing of a gt2 pulley with the teeth, as you requested. The difference between...
you guys have a lot of goodies there, I like your site. will keep it in favorites just in case. thanks.
too much trouble for me. had my frames precision cut on a cnc. sounds overkill, but in the end I got precise dimensions (to the order of tau's)...
There is another thing I want to mention here, money related: I read many complains on the net regarding how hard it is to find large size...
Sorry Justin, I see now what you mean, it's 50.19 inches, not 5.19
Hello Justin, Both are correct, one is in metric (millimetres) and the other is in imperial. The pad is already split into four quadrants, each...
10-12 mm diameter screws might not work at 1500 mm. such unsupported span requires at least 16-18 mm diameter lead screws.
and a follow up with a quick shot at the silicone pad heater. etched foil, split into four areas, each area 2200 watt. 220 volt compatible there's...
feenix, I paid some 20 or so USD for shipping for a large silicone pad worth 370 USD, I don't think that's over priced. on the other hand, if you...
