Anet A8 (/Prusa i3) - Reinforced X axis belt tensioner
thingiverse
I replaced the original belt tensioner with a great model to boost my print quality. However, the original component didn't withstand the pressure of the screw. With limited experience in 3D printing and no ABS material available, I designed a stronger version of the tensioner. Update: Another issue arose when I realized that my x-axis steel rods were slightly too short, causing the small rods on the cover to be undersized. To resolve this problem, I lengthened them in the model. Everything now works flawlessly and has already withstood several prints on the Anet A8. Note: I'm still uncertain whether it will continue working on the Prusa I3.
