I'm excited to report that the Z Axis rods move with incredible ease and I spotted several types of syncro indicators in action. To improve the system further, I designed my own model that functions flawlessly without relying on screws, allowing for...

This mod is designed to correct an issue in the Z axis frame. It moves and fails to align orthogonally due to a problem in my printer's setup, which was off by approximately 4 degrees. I drew inspiration from this design on Thingiverse:...

It's not possible to install a 5x40 screw in the original component due to its narrow 4mm-wide hole. ...The standard item, however, features a spacious 5mm-diameter hole that accommodates a typical M5 nut with ease.

Hi, I revamped this because I didn't need the filament guide and the rod cap. I cut it at 8 mm height, added a bottom to the hole for the bearing, so it won't fall down and I reduced the bearing hole from 22.5 mm to 22.1 mm. Now it stays put. If...

I've modified the foot to fit snugly under the motor block and hold it more securely. ...I've also rounded out the base of the "1" for a better surface connection, reducing the risk of breakage between the base and the "1" shape.

... A threaded rod between the two top mounts eliminates the Anet A8 cross bar flex and acts as a corner brace with the uprights. The Z Motor housings are now single pieces, featuring a screw-down point on the outer edge for fastening to a base board.

I was searching for some z-axis anti-wobble top plates for my Anet A8 printer that wouldn't look unusual. Since I couldn't find one, I decided to design and build my own. ... If you want a more secure mounting option for your bearings, check out this...

Hello, I created this z-axis extension for my Anet A8 printer because the Z-Axis threaded rod wasn't long enough after I installed this self-centering coupler. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:602481 If the straight rod fits too loosely on your...

I decided to swap out the other Z-Axis brackets because they just weren't holding up to my standards, so I went ahead and scoured the web until I stumbled upon a gem on https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2719424 - I immediately fell in love with its...

Hello,\r\n\r\nI encountered difficulties with my Z-axis straight rod, featuring a 8.0 mm diameter, yet the holes had a diameter of approximately 8.5 mm resulting in noticeable play. ...Consequently, I chose to enlarge the holes using a 10 mm drill bit...

Hey everyone, I've got a simple fix for The Anet A8 printer that's going to resolve the annoying Z-wobble issue plaguing this affordable printer. All you need to do is print out this part and attach it to the threaded rod on top without taking...

I designed this specifically to accommodate the sensor on the right front side when facing it directly.\r\nIt's tailored for the standard Extruder used in the Anet A8, ensuring a stable setup overall.

Left-hand carriage, Axis Z, Motor X, bisected angles, axis name above, horizontal bar holes semi-circular semi-square. 2x LM8UU visible in photo. Axis Z, Motor X bisected angles, part name on top, horizontal holes semi-circular and square. ...( I...

Realigns the Z-axis at the top, reducing metallic vibrations significantly. ...Simply swap out the existing screws for the originals provided with the printer and a spare, effortlessly securing precise movement.

I appreciate the shoutout to Carlos Fernandez, thanks for that! I took a different approach with this one. By shortening the tubes, I was able to make it larger in size. ...Now, you should be able to easily attach it to the original part as shown in the...

We'll use these double nuts to eliminate any slack between them and the spindle, ensuring that when they're tensioned by the spring, they remain regulated independently. ...The limit switch makes it simpler to reach the "HOME" point if we swap out the...

Here is the rewritten text: A human being needs a winning rod one millimeter in diameter. Twelve of these rods are required. Additionally, twelve M8 nuts are necessary. The quality of printing for the rod is 0 point 2. ...The quality of printing for...

I wanted to make the spindels have a bearing. I had some 688zz bearings lying around after making my open rc F1. Bearings are realy cheap to find on aliexpress. I've tested the parts found some issues and fixed that. You will need longer bolts to...

Modified the 608 bearing configuration with a single pulley replacing the dual pulleys, increased the inner diameter by .1 units, and upgraded the toothed pulley to a version with more pronounced teeth, courtesy of Grimlock_UK's expert input.

I aimed to ensure the spindles had a smooth rotation. I was fortunate enough to have some 688zz bearings on hand, leftover from my recent open rc F1 build project. Bearings are incredibly affordable to acquire through online marketplaces like...

Modified for the 608 bearing. ...Changed the 2 pulleys to one pulley, and added .1 to the inner diameter, and swapped out the toothed pulley for deeper toothed one (by Grimlock_UK).

... according to personal experience. Yes, it does resemble a large number one, but rest assured that this design will fit perfectly if the Z-axis coupler has been installed correctly, with only 5mm of motor spindle protruding into the coupler.

I made these parts to compensate for misaligned Z-axis bearing guide rods, which become more pronounced when stiffening the frame. Misalignment will cause parts to bind together. These adjustments require four 20mm M4 bolts to realign the parts...

Take your trusty old inline or skateboard ABEC5 bearings and install them in the guide. To complete the task, you'll also need two M3 nuts and screws that measure Ø22x8mm. Make sure to use PLA material with a 100% infill setting for optimal results.

Axis Z stabilizer for Anet A8 We need: M3 screws - 2 part, M3 nuts - 2 part.

This handy tool makes quick work of setting up dual Z Axis motors on the ANET A8 or similar machines with a dual stepper Z Axis system. To use this tool, you'll need to print two copies. Here's how: First, turn off the stepper motors and manually...
