MPCNC with Makerbase MKS TFT28

thingiverse

This color touch display works out of the box without any firmware modifications for the MPCNC. You just need to connect to AUX 1 on the RAMPS 1.4 board, set the voltage jumper on the on the TFT board at the 5V position and voila. The display is made by MakerBase and the design is open-source kept at Github with all details here:https://github.com/makerbase-mks/MKS-TFT Thanks Dindit for the faceplate remix based on pma's design and all the great info about the hardware. Remixed MPCNC Corner Block Lock to add a M5 threaded rod for the articulated support. Remixed mount plate to add articulated support. I printed with .320 layer height in PETG to print fast, but any settings/filament should work fine. For the Corner Block Lock you should use high infill. Please note Alted's MPCNC infill recommendation for the Corner Block Lock is 70%. Parts: MKS TFT28 Display M5 Threaded Rod - around 20 cm. If you want to position the display higher you will need to replace the cable that comes with the TFT unit with a longer one. Also note that my RAMPS/Arduino is installed close to a Corner Block. I do plan to replace the flat cable with a longer one (4 wire shielded security cable) so I used much longer rod. I will keep you posted on that. You can easily adjust the display height thanks to the threaded rod M5 Nuts, and washers M3 screws and nuts
