Ender 3 / Creality Style Z Axis Belt

thingiverse

This is a back plate that i designed to remove the lead screw and replace it with a belt. you will need to edit the following in marlin: #define DISABLE_INACTIVE_Z false (This will be marked as "true", change it to "false") //#define SD_FINISHED_STEPPERRELEASE (this will be uncommented, you need to comment this out and turn it off) //#define SD_FINISHED_RELEASECOMMAND "M84" (this will be uncommented, you need to comment this out and turn it off) Change Steps for z axix (Based on what you have your z stepping set to 1/16 or 1/32) - for 1/16 (default in marlin) - set steps to 80 (assuming you have 20 tooth gears), for 1/32 stepping - set steps to 160 (assuming you have 20 tooth gears) this keeps your gantry from falling after the print is finished and does not allow your z stepper motors to turn off or time out. Note: when you turn off the machine the gantry will not hold its self up, you will need to make a clip for the gantry to rest on while the machine is off - after you turn the machine one the gantry will not hold itself untill you move it up, then it will not turn off The that i used - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4062689 I used this remix of the tensioner center peice - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4342928
