Adimlab Creality X Carriage Adapter

prusaprinters

<p>The Adimlab Gantry printer is a clone of the Creality CR-10. &nbsp;The X carriage on the Adimlab printer is a proprietary design and it is difficult to work with. &nbsp;If the printer is modified and a Creality style X carriage plate is installed on the printer it gives user's a lot more versatility on hotend and extruder designs. &nbsp;</p><p>Unfortunately, because of the way the Adimlab printer is designed some hotend/extruder combinations will not be low enough on the Adimlab printer for the hotend to reach the bed.</p><p>This adapter is made to fit onto the Creality X carriage and mirrors the carriage mount points so it will drop the hotend down 20mm. &nbsp;</p><p>In the images, the Petsfang hangs too high and it doesn't touch the heated bed. &nbsp;This is because the X gantry is bottomed out. &nbsp;In the second image after installation of the adapter, the hotend is positioned properly.</p><p>To install you will need to press in some 3mm threaded inserts in the positions indicated on the 3d model picture. &nbsp;You will also need two 3mm hexhead screws and two 3mm panhead screws. &nbsp;The hexhead screws go where they are circled on the printed part picture. &nbsp;The panhead screws go on top of the printed washers. &nbsp;This gives you 4 mounting points so it is solidly mounted to the x carriage.</p><p>The belt blocks work with the x Carriage to position the belt on the Adimlab printer. &nbsp;Recommend using these belt holders to secure the belt. &nbsp;https://www.printables.com/model/8805-gt2-timing-belt-holderclip</p><p>These parts were designed in FreeCad except for the belt blocks which were designed using AC3D. &nbsp;Recommend printing with 3-5 walls and cubic infill at 25-40%</p>
