Ooznest OX CNC Machine

thingiverse

The Ooznest OX CNC Machine is built on the foundation of Mark Carew's OX CNC Machine from Openbuilds, incorporating numerous upgrades from the community.\nThe Ooznest OX CNC Machine fully utilizes the V-Slot Extrusion system, maintaining the original extrusion layout used in the OX, plus Mark's innovative spoiler board modification.\nThe kit employs a total of 30 Solid Delrin or Xtreme V Wheels, including two extra wheels for the extended Z-Axis. The Z-Axis V-Slot extrusion measures 200mm.\nThe plate designs in our kit are based on the originals but have been enhanced with additional features to increase performance and design. On the Y-Axis, we've added an inner wheel brace to improve efficiency and protect the wheels from debris. We've also designed custom NEMA23 threaded rod mounts, Y-Axis end plates, and 20x40 end caps to ensure no exposed extrusions.\nOur complete kit features the popular CNC xPro controller with a cable carrier system for the X and Y Axis, plus a 24V 350W Power supply with a full cover, volt meter, and XT60 Outputs.\n\n \n \n Instructions\nManual & Parts List\n Mark Carew's excellent build videos for the original OX could have been sufficient to construct our OX on their own. However, we wanted to make it even easier. Therefore, we've created a comprehensive written instruction manual with IKEA-style assembly diagrams. Our manual closely follows Mark's videos.\nThe Appendix of the instruction manual includes a full parts list for the standard 500x750mm OX, as well as an Excel file containing all the parts. For larger or smaller versions, refer to the section below to purchase the correct extrusions.\nProvided above are Step Files and DXF files for the plates, along with drawings that showcase the main dimensions. The “.pdf” file summarizes all the plates and their quantities needed per set.\nWe've also included 3D Printable stl's for our controller mount, cable carrier mounts, and PSU Cover. Additionally, we provide a guide to assemble the cable carriers, build the PSU Cover, connect the xPro, and set up the software.\n Guide to buying the V-Slot\n First, determine your required X & Y cutting area.\nFor the X-Axis, you'll need 2 x 20x60mm & 1 x 20x40mm V-Slot Extrusions. The length needed for these extrusions is your desired X cutting length plus 180mm. For example, if you want to cut 1000mm in the X direction, you'll need extrusions that are 1174mm long.\nFor the Y-Axis, you'll need 2 x GT3 Belt lengths, each measuring the length of the extrusion on that Axis plus 200mm. The minimum length required for the Y-Axis is two extrusions that are 1134mm and 1174mm long.\nThe Z-Axis requires one 20x60mm V-Slot Extrusion, which can be made as big or small as desired but should not exceed a length of 200mm to avoid hitting the spoiler board supports. The length of the ACME Lead screw for the Z-Axis is the length of your Z-Axis Extrusion plus 23mm.\nThe “Sales” Bit\nWe designed this kit due to numerous requests for quotes we received for the OX CNC Machine. Therefore, we're now offering a Full Kit, Mechanical Kit, Plates Kit, and various Add-on kits on our website. These kits can be found by following this link: http://ooznest.co.uk/3D-Printer-CNC-Kits-Bundles/OX-CNC-Machine\nAll the V-Slot Extrusions and Mechanical Parts used in our kits come directly from Openbuildspartstore, ensuring that you're supporting them.\nCredits\nWe'd like to thank Mark Carew and OpenBuilds part store for designing an excellent CNC Machine and V-Slot system, which they've allowed to be freely shared, remixed, and sold. We also appreciate the OpenBuilds community for sharing their upgrades to make the OX even better.\nThe original OX Design can be found here: http://www.openbuilds.com/builds/openbuilds-ox-cnc-machine.341/
