3018 CNC upgrade spindle mount V2

prusaprinters

<p>15.01.2020:</p> <p>Updated a new version that lets the threaded rod coupler go into the spindle mount, to get full movement on the Z axis. Also made the clamping part for the spindle a little bit longer to prevent movement in the holder.</p> <p>Upgraded my 3018 CNC machine with a 500 watt 50mm spindle. And needed a new mount for it. As this motor is quite alot bigger, and longer, I decided to make a mount that lifts the spindle 10mm higher, not to loose work area :-)</p> <p>All the stock hardware is used, like linear bearings and T8 nut. You also need 3 M4 bolts and nuts to tighten the spindle in the mount!</p> <p>Working on a dust shoe to fit into this, so an updated version will be dropped soon for those who need that.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Ender 3</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>Yes</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>20</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Fiberlogy PLA/PETG/ABS any</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>As this thing is higher at one side, it needs supports on that side, touching buildplate :-)</p></div> </p></p></p> Category: DIY
