VEE CORE XY

thingiverse

A Core XY printer prototype i designed awhile ago. It uses v slot linear rails for the x and y gantry's and standard linear bearings for the z-axis. A greg wades reloaded extruder with a E3D bowden adopter is used. The pulleys are 3D printed and work perfectly. The x and y gantry core XY system has been tested as shown in video. But the rest hasn't been built so not yet proven in real world conditions. (Work in Progress) This video shows the x and y gantry in action.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSJEafZURIc BOM Steppers Nema 17 5x Leadscrew 8mm Standard Threaded Rod Length-300mm 2x Coupler 8mm to 5mm Coupler 2x Pulley GT2 Pulley 2x Bearings Bearing( 16mm Outer Dia - 5mm Inner Dia - 4mm Width) 16x Belts GT2 Belt >10m Length Extruder Greg Wades Reloaded Extruder System Nuts Threaded Plate 200 M5 NUT 46 M3 NUT 41 Bolts M3 HEX BOLT Length- 10mm 18x M3 HEX BOLT Length- 15mm 22x M3 HEX BOLT Length- 20mm 1x M5 HEX BOLT Length- 10mm 200x M5 HEX BOLT Length- 15mm 20x M5 HEX BOLT Length- 25mm 8x M5 HEX BOLT Length- 40mm 18x Washer M3 WASHER 41x M5 WASHER 246x Bowden Adapter E3D BOWDEN ADAPTER + 1m Teflon Tube x1 3D Printed Parts Left motor angle bracket stepper mount 1x Right motor angle bracket mount 1x left back pulley mount 1x right back pulley mount 1x angle bracket 100mm top back right 1x angle bracket 100mm top back left 1x angle brackets top sides 2x angle brackets top sides B 2x bracket corner A 2x bracket corner B 2x back pulley mount bracket 2 2x back pulley mount riser 2x Y Axis Carriage 2x carriage mount to x rail 2x z stage triangle bracket 4x z stage mount 2x pla linear bearing mount 4x linear shaft top mount 2x linear rail lower mount 2x linear rail lower mount support bracket 4x angle bracket 100mm 8x greg extruder support bracket 2x greg extruder mount 1x belt clamp 4x z endstop mount to extrusion 1x z endstop slider 1x extrusion bracket 16x Pulley 8x Aluminium Extrusion Profile 20 I-Type slot 5 Length - 696mm 2x Profile 20 I-Type slot 5 Length - 500mm 4x Profile 20 I-Type slot 5 Length - 460mm 2x Profile 20 I-Type slot 5 Length - 616mm 2x Profile 20 I-Type slot 5 Length - 550mm 2x Profile 20 I-Type slot 5 Length - 300mm 2x Linear Shaft 12mm Dia Shaft Length - 400mm 2x Linear Bearing Linear bearing 12mm LM12UU 4x Print Settings Printer: P3STEEL Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.6mm Layer Height Infill: 30% Notes: Used High Quality PLA. 0.8mm Nozzle Diameter.
