Prusa i3 MK3 - X-end 5 mm Z Axis Lead screw (trapezoidal thread)
thingiverse
Modification of the original Prusa i3 MK3 x-end.scad file for a 5mm lead screw with trapezoidal threading requires some adjustments to ensure proper alignment and functionality. The primary goal is to accommodate the new screw's dimensions while maintaining the printer's overall precision and accuracy. The first step involves identifying and modifying the existing x-axis endstop settings in the scad file. This includes changing the screw diameter from 3mm to 5mm, as well as adjusting the lead screw pitch according to the trapezoidal thread specifications. By making these modifications, the printer's mechanical components will be able to adapt to the new screw without compromising its performance. Next, it is essential to update the x-end.scad file with the correct dimensions for the 5mm lead screw. This involves recalculating and redefining several key parameters, such as the thread pitch, root radius, and crest radius. By doing so, the printer's mechanics will be optimized to work seamlessly with the new screw. To complete the modification process, it is necessary to verify that the updated x-end.scad file does not introduce any inconsistencies or conflicts with the existing printer configuration. This can be achieved by reviewing the modified code carefully and performing a thorough test run to ensure the printer operates correctly with the new 5mm lead screw.
