Ultimate Remix for Dagoma DiscoEasy 200 DE200

thingiverse

This Repository is intended over time to be a collection of remixes of the best printable components to upgrade a standard Dagoma DiscoEasy 200 at low cost. By eliminating all slackness in belts and print head bearings on the standard DE200, and by judicious selection of options in the Ultimaker version of Cura, I have managed to get the print quality of my vanilla DE200 to be pretty good. I am hoping that with these mods I will be able to print at the same (or better) quality but at a far higher speed than the standard Cura settings. There are no shortage of upgrade designs on Thingiverse (and other sites), but finding the best ones and ensuring that they are compatible with one another is not easy. So as I sort through the various designs and ideas that other people have had, combining them as appropriate for the best solution for my own printer, I thought I would share the same designs in a single place to help others achieve the same with far less work. PLEASE NOTE: This is a design work-in-progress. You are welcome to try it out and I would welcome any feedback. But I have yet to get to the point of printing the parts and trying it. The objectives of this design are: a. Improve print quality substantially by removing as much slackness/wobble as possible. This means reprinting almost all the plastic parts of the standard printer. b. Enable future upgrades to retain as many of these reprinted parts as possible. For example, I hope to be able to undertake an XL upgrade simply by replacing the front and rear faces. c. To retain the essence of the DiscoEasy style - it should remain recognisably a DE200 rather than starting to look like an Ender or Prusa etc. The repository currently has the following parts: 1a. A fresh remix of the Dagoma original front face drawing primary inspiration for rigidity from [Front Face Reinforced by @filpompei](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2744912/) and [Face avant renforcé Discoeasy200 by ragnaroque](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2077102) together with my own addition of air gaps at the bottoms of the rod clamps and additional reinforcement fillets, and 1b. A Pause Button taken directly from [Face avant et arrière renforcées by 3DLD](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3196138). 2a-c. A fresh remix of the Dagoma dual extruder back face drawing inspiration from [Face avant renforcé Discoeasy200 by ragnaroque](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2077102) and a Y-belt tensioner from [Faces AV&AR améliorées pour Dagoma DiscoEasy & DiscoVery by Z122](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3309864). I have included designs for the back face both without (2a.) and with (2b. & 2c.) the tensioner. 3a. Reinforced Z-axis sides remixed from [Fixe Coté à double barre by 3DLD](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4033114), modified to be the same profile as the standard Dagoma sides so that it fits with the Bezain Ultimod corners. 3b. PCB supports copied directly from the above. 3c. Anti-wobble bearings taken directly from [Centreurs de tiges T8 et M8 pour Dagoma DiscoEasy et DiscoVery by Z122](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2081039). Minor changes to the base corners include removing the internal wiring ducts, replacing some curved fillets with flat chamfering and standardising the screw points. The Z-axis tops have been redesigned from scratch based on the positions of the Ultimod by Bezain rods, and also integrate anti-wobble bearings inspired by [Guide tige filetée DiscoEasy 200 avec roulements by Saxonaute](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3236227). 5a-b. Z chariots - currently sticking with the stock Dagoma chariots as they seem to be working OK. 6a-b. (TBD) Print head for IGUS bearings - having tightened the X and Y belts, with IGUS bearings the print head is currently the most wobbly part of the standard Dagoma DE200. 7a. (TBD) X-dimension cable support chains to prevent cables dragging on the print. 8a-c. Remix of [Filler - The Customizable Filament Holder that fills your printer! bu HugoHuge](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3020026) to resize it for 2.3kg Dagoma filament spools.
