My HyperCube Evolution

thingiverse

##THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS My version of the HyperCube Evolution, based heavily on the work by Scott_3D and Tech2C. My plans are to feature dual Z axis motors on a smallish 200x200x200mm build volume using 32bit Marling controller board and a direct-drive extruder (probably the E3D Titan Aero). I have started a new PlayList on my YouTube Channel to walk through each step of the build: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJX30NW4d60PdxcPWZcrLxaXvndv3tkGq And will update this Thingi page with the Printed Parts, Parts Lists, and link to each video as they are produced. Please refer to Tech2c and Scott_3D Thingi pages for more information on the HyperCube & HyperCube Evolution 3D Printers (referenced in the Remixed From section on this page) I welcome feedback and suggestions during this process as my goal is to produce a highly accurate, and fast (up to 80mm/s) 3D Printer (within reason :) ). ###Part 1 - Building the Frame **YouTube Video:** https://youtu.be/bWggeeBoFs8 ####Purchased Items: + 4 x 3030 450mm Extruded Aluminum Frame + 4 x 3030 320mm Extruded Aluminum Frame + 6 x 3030 310mm Extruded Aluminum Frame + 20 x Angle (L) Brackets that match the Extruded Aluminum Profile *Note:* Mounting holes are 16mm & 11mm center to inside corner of L bracket + 40 x m6x10mm Button-head Screws + 16 x M5x10mm Button-head Screws + 16 x M5 T-Nuts for 3030 Extruded Aluminum Frames ####Printed Items: + 20 x Vertical Corner Brackets: *Corner Bracket 3030M6.stl* *Note:* Holes are 13.5-16mm and 11-13.5mm center to corner to accommodate different Angle (L) Brackets + 8 x Horizontal Corner Brackets : *Corner Bracket 3030M5.stl* + 4 x Feet: *Foot 100 micron.stl* or *Foot 200 micron.stl* + 4 x Caps: *Cap 100 micron.stl* or *Cap 200 micron.stl* *NOTE*: The Brackets, Feet and Caps are designed for my particular Extruded Aluminum Profile, your's might be different (see included diagram) ###Part 2 - Y Axis Assembly **YouTube Video:** https://youtu.be/iSqgmtMIO4g ####Purchased Items: + 2 x Nema 17 42mm Stepper Motors + 2 x GT2 Timing Pulley (20 teeth) 5mm bore for 6mm belt + 4 x M5x10mm Button Head Screw - Mount Stepper Motor Mount & Idler Mount to Frame + 4 x M5 T-Nut for 3030 - Mount XY Stepper Motor Mount & Idler Mount to Frame - Taken from Corner Brackets + 4 x M3x20mm Hex Head Screws - clamp Linear Rods to their Printed Mounts + 4 x M3x8mm Hex Head Screws to Mount Stepper Motor + 2 x M3x6mm Hex Head Screws to Mount Stepper Motor + 4 x GT2 Idler Pulley (20 teeth) 3mm bore for 6mm belt Idler Pullies - to Idler Mounts + 2 x M3x30mm Hex Head Screws for Idler Pullies to Idler Mounts + 6+ M3 Washers for between Idler Pullies + 6 x M3 Brass threaded inserts for Stepper Motor Mounts & Idler Mounts + 2 x 10mm Dia 310mm long Linear Guide Rods + 4 x LM10UU 10mm Linear Ball Bearings + 2 x M6x10 (or 8) Grub (Set) Screws - should already be included with the L Brackets ####Reused Parts: + 10 x M6x10mm Button Head Screws - mount XY Stepper Motor Mount & Idler Mount to Frame.

Also you will need a 'left elbo' USB Type A cable to connect to the mainboard as there is not enough room for a straight connector. ####Printed Items: + 1 x Controller Board Case v2.stl ####Purchased Items: + 4 x m3x5mm Brass Threaded Inserts
