Belt Drive Wade's Extruder
thingiverse
A belt drive extruder offers several advantages over printed gears, including durability, backlash-free operation, smoother performance, and easier clamping of GT2 pulleys onto motor shafts. This modification swaps the motor mount to accommodate belt tensioning and adds a motor-side bearing brace. Tested on a UConduit H-bot printer, this design uses GT2 pulleys (5mm for standard, 8mm for bowden) and belts (88T standard, 94T bowden), along with 608 bearings and M4x50 screws. Non-bowden configuration testing is forthcoming.
