anet a8 y axis upgrade 3d models

I've also added X-axis tensioning into the design which again has advantages in comparison to doing it long the length of the belt. It gives much more subtle adjustment. ...In concert with working bearings, it allows tighter settings with better levels...

The innovative Taurus Y axis: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3269389 I assembled it with this high-performance MGN12 solution: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3847800 It likely functions with LM8UU bearings too, but I haven't tested it that...

Update: Recently, I wanted to upgrade my Plus with GT2 Belts - it turns out they are a little bit smaller than the original belts. ...So, I'll soon post an updated version of the Clamp and the Cover specific for the Glassfiber-reinforced GT2 Belts....

I also added X-axis tensioning into the design, which has its own set of advantages over doing it along the length of the belt. It gives much more subtle adjustment. When combined with working bearings, it allows tighter settings and better levels...

The Z-Axis Bed Level Adjustment Process for Anet A8 Printers Requires Precision Calibration. Begin by ensuring your printer is properly assembled and calibrated. Next, locate the Z-axis bed level adjustment screws located on the left side of the Y...

Print Settings: Printer: Anet A8 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 20% How I Designed This: Windows 10 3D Builder is my go-to tool; it's simple and easy to use, unlike most other 3D programs out there. ...I uploaded the STL file into 3D...

This custom Y-belt tensioner is crafted to keep the belt pulley locked in place just like the original non-adjusting mounting bracket, ensuring precise geometry along the Y axis remains intact at all times. Two adjustable screws provide a smooth and...

An improvement to the stock idler. ...The stock idlers on the Y axis are kind of a pain to adjust or disassemble. I designed these to mount on the 2020 extrusion right over the stock mounting point.. ...It's a simple, self-registering design.

I've added a glass bed on top of my aluminum heat bed, as well as a silicon heater, which made the y-axis extremely heavy. To counteract this weight, I utilized some 12mm linear rails and LM12UU linear bearings for support. ... The design is tailored...

The primary objective of this revision is to address potential issues with the Y-axis belt tension, which can hinder successful printing of screws. To overcome this challenge, I created a custom solution by combining a screw and nut, incorporating...

Outer Holes from Desk: 22.9mm Distance between inner holes: 171mm Inner Holes from Desk: 40mm Thickness: 8mm This design should replace the original Part entirely, serving as a base for an upgraded version. In contrast to the original, these four...

Conversion to casings for the X-axis, for the Anet A8 printer.\nAlso, to avoid backlash on the Z-axis, double nut bearing is chosen.\nThe casings are 11mm wide x 20mm long x 8mm diameter.\nThe bearing nuts are M8 thread.\nIncludes (or not) tensioner...

You must carefully saw through the M4 thread that holds the bearings together. ...This crucial step was originally conceived by idea04, a talented designer who shared their creation on Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2554439.

This is a work in progress and is currently being printed. Many revisions will come. Need to test tolerances and create hot end mount & Z-stop mount. Printing in PLA for prototype then will use PC or Nylon on final rev. Thanks for stopping...

The leadscrew on an Anet A8 should be free on top, because if it's fixed in two points, unevenness results in wobble on the X axis. If you leave the leadscrew free on top, no force is pushing to the X axis even if the leadscrew is bent. V1 stl files...

Anet A8 Belt Tensioner X-Axis This Anet A8 X-Axis belt tensioner has numerous features that distinguish it from other x-axis tensioners. With over 1000 hours of print time, this design continues to perform well. Key Features: • M5 nut traps and...

A custom x axis tensioner designed specifically for the Anet A8, ensuring it doesn't slip or run out of adjustment room. Constructed to be mounted directly onto the extruder frame, this innovative device relies on a sturdy M3X20 screw and a durable...

this tensioner has been designed for the X-axis belt of the anet a8 plus printer, starting from the original design which brings and improves the detail accuracy for the timing belt and screw adjustment, offers a straighter belt tension and improves...

For Anet A8's X & Z axis, a 3D printable cable chain is available with dimensions of 15x20 mm. ...You can find this plastic cable chain at https://www.compassdhmprojects.it/catene-rigide/825-catena-portacavi-sezione-interna-15x20-mm.html, perfect for...

I designed a custom belt holder specifically for the x axis of my Anet A8 (May 2017) 3D printer. The existing belt holders I found on Thingiverse didn't quite fit my GT2 belts, so I created one that would work perfectly. ...To attach this new holder to...

This is a straightforward X-axis belt tensioner designed specifically for the Anet A8 3D printer. The support structure is secured to the left side, whereas the right side can be adjusted approximately 1 cm. ...My design draws inspiration from this...

The tensioner can be installed directly on the A8 with no modifications required, making it easy to tighten the belt. For mounting on the frame, four M3 x 18 screws and four M3 nuts are necessary. One M3 x 18 screw and one M3 locknut will suffice for...

When I started to put my entire printer on rails with the BLV mod project, I ran into the problem of attaching the 2020 profile for the Y axis. There was also a problem with the endstop. I decided to order a 450 mm profile, so it was necessary to...

I'm impressed by the lack of customization options for printing the Y-axis belt tensioner, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and designed a new one with adjustable tension using the same nuts and bolts. Check out my print if you think...

I stiffened the Y-axis adjuster to make it more solid...it snapped twice during printing of really nice parts, and in both instances, it cracked right at the rear hook section...so I reinforced that area...and now it's functioning perfectly... will...

revised the Y axis adjuster a bit to be more sturdy... i had it break twice with really good prints...both broke in the same spot, right at the rear hook portion...so i beefed it up a bit... worked like a charm... will post a photo as soon as i...

... print. This allowed me to easily multiply it by 1, resulting in two identical copies. The Anet A8 Z axis height gauge has undergone a modification - its diameter now spans from 3/4 inch to 1 inch for the flange situated beneath the bearing blocks.

I Remixed the Original Files to Fit My A8 3D Printer. The Original Design Didn't Suit My Needs, So I Made Some Changes. ...My New Dimensions Are Based on This Make: Thingiverse Make #377652

This is a nearly exact replica of the stock Anet A8 X Axis mounts in newer molded versions.\r\n\r\nThe reason I created these was to change the color scheme of the printer from black and white to black and orange, as it looks awesome and the stock...
