ANET A8 improved X-Axis modification
thingiverse
Hello Anet A8 printer users! I made this upgrade for the Anet because the X-axis was the weakest axis because of the play and imperfections on the standard 8mm steel rods. This upgrade wil remove all play on the X-axis and provide you with a better way to mount your extruder carriage. I made this carriage to fit the E3D lite and probably the normal E3D as well (haven`t fitted it yet). ##To use this mod you will need some additional parts: - MGN12 rail 35cm and one slider. you can find them on ebay, banggood, local supplier, etc.. I bought 40cm and used a dremel to shorten it on both ends so my holes line up nicely. - 4020 Aluminium extrusion profile 40cm length. - M3 hex bolts to fasten the MGN 12 to the 4020 extrusion: M3x6 I used 7 bolts in total. - Print the M3 size of these to fit your MGN or buy real Tslot nuts: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2164617 - GT2 belt I bought one meter and cutted it to lenght. Optional: - GT2 pulley with ballbearings, since the original ANET rollers are sometimes off center. (Still need to finish this text, work in progress!!!!)
