ADIMLab Pillow Block Bearing Mount

thingiverse

The ADIMLab gantry can be upgraded with a pillow block bearing, allowing for quieter operation and preventing z-axis rods from moving up or down. By replacing lead screws with 2mm pitch lead screws, users can ensure compatibility with 500mm screws that may be shorter than the original printer components. Printing the factory bracket at 5mm provides additional rigidity to the plastic, while also accommodating long screws. The customizer feature allows users to specify a thickness of their choice. A thick infill is necessary for securely fastening the big screw through the top bar without cracking the plastic. *** Warning: Use with Caution! *** While this upgrade prevents leadscrew movement and rattling, it may compromise print quality if leadscrews are not straight. Users must verify that leadscrews are properly aligned and the X axis bar is firm before implementing this solution.
