thingiverse

Those are specialized vibration dampers designed specifically for use with 3030 aluminum extrusions found in Scalar family 3D printers. Updates: December 18th: Adds link to demo video showing their effectiveness. Using these dampers is straightforward: 1. Print at least three of the provided models (four work even better) and attach them to the underside of your printer's chassis using M6 screws and TNuts. 2. Place tennis balls on top of each model for maximum effect. Benefits Include: Reducing noise output from your printer Minimizing low-frequency vibrations that can impact print quality Slightly enhancing overall print quality due to improved stability Providing additional space underneath the printer for storing tools and accessories Creating a more enjoyable printing experience Two models are available: 1. Scalar -Tennis_Ball_Damper.stl: The standard model offers a large surface area, ensuring the tennis balls have plenty of grip. 2. Scalar -Tennis_Ball_Damper_simple.stl: This lighter version is 30mm wide and perfectly fits within the extrusion profiles edges.
