Geeetech i3 Clone

thingiverse

This is a structure made of M8 threaded rods and 3D printed parts that can replace Geeetech i3 structure. The extruder assembly is still a work in progress...I included the file if you fancy modifying it... The rest is pretty much ok but there is still nothing designed to hold the electronics and the display. The original Geeetech tensioning pulley for X and Y axis fits the respective plates. The bearings, axis, Z rods (M8x1mm) and nuts, are the same measures of original Geeetech i3 (x=390mm,y=410mm,z=320mm). The printing area is increased to about X=300mm, Y290mm, Z215mm. Limit switches fixing areas are designed with "home" and "end" positions, except at the top of Z axis (that is not present anyway in Geeetech printer). The rods are 12, M8, at max 500mm long, so it should all be done with 6x1000mm M8 rods. There are holes on the Y axis plates for 2 extra threaded bars if needed to hold it tighter. The X carriage axis are placed horizontally instead of vertically, interaxis 70mm. In the files there is "Piastra fissaggio hotbed" that have the pattern for the holes to fit the bearing holders for the Y carriage. Just a note if you are going to print this: Some parts have pre-cuts and the slicer will build supports for them, but you have to handle the part together and not separate them when moving the part around in the slicer plate. Just take a look at the parts when placing them in the slicer, there is always a side that is pretty much flat where the part will sit.

These are just links to selected eBay and Aliexpress items, where I normally buy spare parts and materials for my printer, prices are excellent and products are good. If you buy something from here you will support me a little bit to make these projects. <a target="_blank" href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=9&pub=5575414000&toolid=10001&campid=5338353127&customid=PLA&icep_uq=pla+filament+1kg&icep_sellerId=&icep_ex_kw=&icep_sortBy=12&icep_catId=&icep_minPrice=&icep_maxPrice=&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg">1Kg PLA Filament -
