IKEA LEDBERG Z-Axis (Printrbot) holder version 2

thingiverse

Here's an updated version that incorporates a few improvements without increasing complexity. The revised frame has a stronger build than its predecessor, with a robust design that eliminates the need for an additional support arm, but still offers ample space for extra reinforcement if needed. The upgrade introduces a cantilevered arm mounted on the Z-axis head, which significantly boosts structural integrity compared to the cross-beam mounting of earlier models. Additionally, the new arm is optimized to handle increased loads without compromising performance. The Z-axis head itself has been redesigned to be 15mm in length and features a secure 3mm screw hole for attaching rods, enhancing stability. A key innovation in this version is the addition of an arch that connects the cantilevered arm to the cross-beam. This design choice dramatically reduces horizontal vibrations during operation, leading to smoother and more precise performance. Note that only the Z-axis frame has undergone changes, with other components remaining identical to previous iterations.
