Ender 3 Adjustable Z Stepper Mount up to 48mm steppers

thingiverse

A much more solid and adjustable Z stepper mount. It uses the spare screws and T nuts supplied with your printer, and keys into the V groove extrusion. Adjustment is independently in X and Y allowing precise alignment of the lead screw for smooth Z travel. This mount has been remixed to support up to 48mm high steppers. A 15mm spacer is provided to so that the stock motor can be used. A 1mm shim is provided which can be stacked if there is any additional space. The top portion has had a corner trimmed so that it does not clash with the Z axis plate. The hole for the Z Axis to pass through has been made larger so that Flexible/"Upgraded" Z axis couplers fit. Why is this required? This is part of my Ender 3 Dual Z system! The Z rod needed to be extended to require less additional hardware. It also as a side affect makes it compatible with 42x48mm steppers. This is part of my Ender 3 single stepper dual Z system.
