Mercury 1.1 EVA Ender 5 Maximum Y brackets

prusaprinters

<p>These brackets allow you to get the maximum Y travel possible on the ender 5 frame. When converting an ender 5 to the ZeroG Mercury1 &nbsp;with the EVA tool head, some Y travel is lost because the rear mounted fan hits the Z guide rod brackets.</p><p>To maximize Y, you must first remove the unnecessary top &amp; bottom 2020 extrusions that the ender 5 Z guides and stepper are mounted to. They can be mounted directly to the rear frame. This gives you 20mm more travel.&nbsp;</p><p>Then use these printed brackets to replace the upper Z guide rod brackets. They mount to the bottom side of ender 5 frame extrusion. The guide rods can drop down a bit as well. &nbsp;Now the EVA can travel all the way back to ender 5 frame. Reset your end stop and this will give you 275mm x 275mm travel.</p><p>I've included two versions, one uses a heat set insert and the other a nut.&nbsp;</p><p>Required hardware:</p><p>Four M5x10 or 12 screws to mount to frame</p><p>Two M3x 16 for the clamp</p><p>Two M3 heat set inserts or nuts</p>
