EleksMaker A3 Core XY rework

thingiverse

This is a remowork using all electronic components from the EleksMaker a3 Was this necessary? Nope. So why then? 1) Was planning on build a Core XY 3D printer....but wasn't too familiar with how Core XY works mechanically...needed a project...had an EleksMaker a3 which leads to point 2 2) Have an EleksMaker a3, not too happy about the quality I was getting....in the y direction I was getting some strange wobble effect (as if the 2 motors in Y axis was out of step) You'll need to print 2x X Gantry plates and 4x X Gantry GT2 clips Extra Part needed: - 8x GT2 20T 3mm bore pulleys - 6x m3 nuts - 4x m3 bolt 30mm - 2x m3 bolt 50mm - 6m GT2 timing belt (more than you need...but I messed up the first time....so more is better) Got the GT2 locking mechanism from here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1438795 To get the electronics working, connect your machine to pc Start EleksCAM Got to Setting Click Select Machine There will be 4 machines, select the EleksDraw (Top, 2nd machine from left) Select Config Make sure X-Rev and Y-Rev is selected Pulse = 80 (xy) Accel = 200 (xy) Hit save And you are done.
