prusa open idler 3d models

Fairly dissatisfied with numerous Y-Idler tensioners, a determined hobbyist opted to take matters into their own hands and craft one from scratch. Ideally suited for printing on its side, additional scaffolding supports the bearing retainer...

I've been searching for an x-end idler that can tighten the belt, but so far I haven't found one that fits my requirements. The one I designed is as close to the original design as possible and extremely sturdy. You'll need a well-calibrated...

... Version with the "long arm" to trigger the filament sensor. Print it in PETG 20% Grid Infill at 0.2mm layer hight. I used 4 perimeters in Prusa Slicer. ...I've also attached a GCode for MMU2S Single Version, if you want to print it directly.

You can also use this model in Prusa MK2.5/MK3 family without installing square nuts and screws.I use this model to unificate printed parts of my Prusa i3 MK3S+ clone and Prusa Bear Upgrade MK3 clone with MK3S+ X axis and MK3S+ extruder.I printed...

The Prusa i3's belt tensioner/idler is a must-have upgrade. ...It replaces the factory-standard part and lets you fine-tune the belt tension with the same screws used originally.

The Prusa I3 Y-axis Idler comes equipped with a belt tightener and includes the following hardware: one M5x20 screw, one M5 nut, one M3x15 screw, and one M3 nut.

To enhance my Prusa MK3, I decided to replace the original idler's M3 nuts with M3 Nylon Lock nuts. Previously, the screws had become loose, leading to this modification. ...I printed new parts using Prusa PETG based on the provided STL files from the...

I managed to snap my Y idler on Prusa i3 (over-tightening the screws). Since I didn't want to completely disassemble the Y axis to replace it, I designed a replacement one that also allows for belt tensioning. I created three versions: Prusa I3...

Original Prusa MK3 Idler Door with Bearing. Similar in design to the MK2, it serves as a substitute due to unavailability of spare Bondtech Needle Bearings and Gears. Nonetheless, this bearing is anticipated to perform better with flexible filaments...

Thanks to Aldric Negrier, who suggested looking at a design on Thingiverse made by JulioHCD for a 624zz bearing, which I remade to fit the 608 bearing used on Mega Prusa Y idlers. I definitely wanted to use the Y belt idler provided by Aldric Negrier...

... cable more effectively. To install, print the new mount, remove the old ones and idler, and replace them with this one (it requires un-threading both front rods but is worth it for improved quality). ...Enjoy the enhanced pulley-to-cable connection!

I've had reports of the x-axis belt getting worn out by the x-axis idler pulley on my Prusa i3 MK2s printer. It happened to me too! After searching for a decent solution, I couldn't find one that fit my needs. So, I decided to remix the Prusa x-axis...

Idler Pulleys are attached to the X Carriage and Y Idler for optimal movement.

After upgrading my Prusa i3 rework from eMotion-Tech, I pinpointed a weak link: the x-axis idler block was a serious liability, and the entire printer urgently needed an easy way to fine-tune belt tension. Instead of the original setup's two...

However, the existing idler would allow only 1-2mm of range for tensioning (I'm thinking about future, if the belt gets significantly looser).I've changed the Prusa's Y idler by extending holes to be able to use longer screws. I've cut the belt for...

On my Prusa, the x rod tensioner screws causing belt tension also put stress on the z-axis motor mounts and top z-axis rod mounts at the top, resulting in excessive friction and binding. Since I needed just a bit more tension on the belt, I wanted to...

This custom end-idler is designed to work seamlessly with the Original Prusa i3 MK2S, featuring an outer diameter of 22mm and utilizing a T8 nut for optimal performance. There's also a version available that closely resembles the original design,...

Replacing M3x30mm socket head cap screws with M3x40mm allows for easier tensioning of MMU2 idlers and opens up the unit's design. This modification involves swapping out existing screws, which are then secured in place using CA glue, while a friction...

Printing was possible, probably thanks to the friction the filament has just touching the extruder gear, but most of the time the extruder had difficulties loading and unloading filament as well as under-extruding.While waiting for the missing parts...
