JGAURORA A5 Z Gantry Stiffener

prusaprinters

<p>The A5 is a pretty good printer afterall.</p> <p>A lot of good points and of course some not so good.</p> <p>For me the first one one is the stiffness of the Z grantry. That's less than what we can find on a CR10 or a Tevo tornado and other clones by far.</p> <p>So the aim of this design is to increase the Z gantry stiffness to reduce as possible layer offset / shifting.</p> <p><strong>What you need:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Some 3d printed parts of course.</li> <li>A piece of plywood 630 x 540mm.</li> <li>4 x 540mm M8 threated rod.</li> <li>16 x M8 nuts.</li> <li>12 x M8 washer.</li> <li>A bunch wood screw.</li> </ul> <p>You have to add 2 extra holes on the grantry to secure the upper bracket.</p> <p>OK some trouble with the spool holder now, very difficult to remove the spool by now.</p> <p>I'm going to fix that by designing a spool holder with a removable axis</p> <p>Stay Tuned</p> <p><strong>09/11/18: UPDATE</strong></p> <p>Add tools holder between booms.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>JGAurora a5</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20%</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> Generic PLA </p></p> Category: 3D Printer Parts
