MH3000 vibration damping feet

thingiverse

Vibration-dampening feet on a 3D printer eradicate more than half of the waves visible on 3D-printed objects around corners. When the head alters direction, it generates vibrations within the frame and driving belt. Vibration-dampening feet will absorb most of these vibrations because they are less rigid than the frame and belts, resulting in a significant enhancement to your print's surface quality. Another upgrade you can implement is making the head(s) as lightweight as feasible. I designed this vibration-damping (anti-seismic) foot for my ORD Solutions MH3000 printer. The slot on top fits the foot of this specific printer perfectly. If you intend to print this for another 3D printer, you will need to custom-design the slot to fit your 3D printer's foot. This design is available here in the Thing Files, and it can also be found on the 3D Warehouse at https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=u7a7c295d-0f4e-4cca-b65e-c4cdb1826d3a. Additionally, the compression springs I utilize are 15mm in diameter and 1.5mm in wire diameter. If you choose to use alternative springs, you will need to custom-design those round extrusions to fit your springs precisely. Note that the parts lying flat are groups, if you wish to modify them, use the components in the model featuring the springs instead.
