3018 z axis upgrade 3d models

3018 Z-axis upgrade. After installing the y-axis upgrade wanted to utilize the old side rails to upgrade the Z-axis height. A total of 4 will need to be printed. Bottom uses M4x8 to mount along with m4 t-slots and an m4 washers. Upper will...

https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/45497-cnc-3018-z-axis-upgrade I had enough of this freaking spindle delivered with the CNC 3018. So I ordered a 500W spindle, and took the opportunity to to some upgrades. Result: - More rigidity of the whole...

Result: - More rigidity of the whole Z-Axis - No wiggling - More accurate toolpaths - More Z range - More Power - No need to disassemble the whole Z-Installation just to replace the Z-Servo to something better - Small case to house the power supply -...

This is a modular CNC 3018 Pro Z-Axis upgrade I have created a while ago. It is highly optimized (for usage as well for printing, e.g. water drop holes, etc.) but still work in progress. ...More details will follow in future.</p>

### CNC 3018 (Pro) Z AXIS UPGRADE I wanted a more sturdy Z-Axis for the 3018 Pro so I designed a better one. The main problems with the original design are the cheap LM8UU and LM10UU bearings and bad quality T8 spindles, I also found the 2x 10mm...

This is an upgraded version of this: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3519669/files modified to make it easier to print , assemble and disassemble. The z axis rods are mounted a little looser for easier assembly, but can be clamped in place with two...

(Happy New Year :)) After I didn't find a single Z-axis upgrade for the CNC3018 that really worked, I decided to make my own. To implement the project you will need - Buy or extrude LM10UU bearings from a native part - 4pcs - extrude or buy a new...

As seen in the photos, you will have to dismantle the Z-axis somewhat to put the parts on, should take less than 30min to do. Unfortuantely, you will lose 2mm on either side (up/down) due to thickness of the print, but it's better than having the...

Remixed alien_2005's Z-axis carriage to be printed on a gen 1 elegoo mars. I am running the print right now and with my settings chitubox says it will take approximately 16.5 hrs. This thing pretty much max's out the build height. ... if you just...

...... Limits of freedom of the Z axis - 73mm The disadvantage of the project is that due to the peculiarities of the dimensions of the horizontal bearings, the boundaries of the X axis narrowed by 18mm, but this is not a big sacrifice for such a project.

An X/Z axis upgrade for the 3018 CNC machine. For 16 mm linear shaft X-axis. For 10 mm linear shaft Z-axis. Extra strong design. An 80x40x4 millimeter thick aluminum plate should be attached to the rear side. This increases the rigidity again.

This is a printable mount for an upgraded Z axis for the 3018 CNC, and it also includes the linear rail mount. Below are the parts I used to make this upgrade. I may update this posting with Anti-backlash once it arrives next week. Right now, I am...

Parts needed: 4x LMH10UU (you can reuse the LM10 found in the X-axis carriage, but they are pretty shit) 2x MGN12H 350mm linear rails 4x MGN12H blocks 16x M3 * 16 30x M3 * 10 30x 2020 t-slot thingies with M3 threads 8x M6 * 30 (30-40) 1x TR8 with...

The spindle comes with an aluminum support, but this piece can't be secured to the CNC without modifying the Z axis. To fix the aluminum plate, I used four M6 screws (70mm long), each equipped with a loosening preventive nut inserted directly into...

This cup sits in/on a 8mm bearing of an upgraded z-axis assembly for a 3018 mini-mill or router, and supports the lead screw. This reduces axial shaft movement under load while preserving motion translation from the screw to the bearing. I created...

Upgrade for the 3018/3018 pro to increase rigidity.There are mounting holes for both nema17 and nema23 on the top.Edit: Added an alternative file for using one of those clamps that are usually delivered together with the chinese 52mm spindles.

Using the springs avoids expensive linear rails and upgrading z stepper, It dampens the z movements increases Z precision, constructed with V groove pulley wheels with dual 688ZZ bearings to reduce z axis load from 1450gm to less than 450gm, also...

I used a Makita clone that HFT carries was on sale 50$, I installed on my 3018, mount used CF-PETG 330gm, router 1400 - 1600gm, coolant / misting device 150-200gm. So I had to increase my Z load displacement from 10Newtons form previous router to...

So I have been having a lot of fun with my new 3018 CNC machine (see more here: http://diy3dtech.com/3018_CNC ) and wanted to add end-stops so I picked up these micro-switches from Amazon (see more here: http://diy3dtech.com/end-stops ) and designed...

CNC 3018 Upgrade Z axix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vidJ6FOaVJY&t=310s

This is a project I have worked on for a while because I love the 3018 CNC, but the z-axis height is too short. So I extended the height of the z-axis. You will need to buy some new parts, a 8mm rod cut to 130mm [Banggood...
