Voron 2.4 modified Z axis linear rod mounts and carriages

prusaprinters

-Be aware that the golden colored aluminium profiles you see in pictures under the Y axis on both sides are mandatory, see below for more info.These are mounts for holding the linear rods in place instead of linear railsAll parts are tested and in daily use on my machines for several months now without issues.The maximum usable speed might be limited due to very high tolerances of the china rods/carriages as they start “ringing” at high speeds, did some test, usually 200-250mm/s is always achievable during printing with no "ringing"8 pieces of “MOUNTS” are required in total, so choose what rod diameter you want to use, 8, 10, or 12mm and print 8 of the same4 pieces of “carriages” are required in total, so choose what rod diameter you want to use, 8, 10, or 12mm and print 4 of the same, orient the vertically. Beware when mounting, 2 should be mounted upside down, so all protruding parts face towards the inside of the printer.They can be mounted in any direction, up or down, but they do require use of 40x20 aluminium profiles, or make the frame 40mm wider in front and back, use M5 screws and can be bolted to front/back or top/bottom as holes for all are providedThe aluminium profiles under the Y axis on both sides are mounted at both ends on the Z axis carriages, those are mandatory to prevent carriages from moving sideways while still leaving some motion up/down for gantry leveling. Both ends are bent at 90 degrees to fit between the carriage and the Y axis mounts, Dimensions are 20x20x0.8mm A flat bar can also be used, probably 20x1mm or 20x1.2mm should be more than enough.For the XY modifications with normal 6mm belts see here:https://www.printables.com/model/945595-voron-24r2-modified-for-linear-rods-round-rodsFor the XY modifications with a wider 9 or 10mm belts see here:https://www.printables.com/model/945612-voron-24r2-modified-for-linear-rods-round-rods-9mmDo clean the holes for the rods before pushing them in.Printed with normal “Voron parts” print settings, use ABS or HIPS, although PLA and PETG should be fine for not enclosed printers.For more see:https://www.youtube.com/@toma.3dhttps://www.youtube.com/@toma.cnc1https://www.youtube.com/@tomapc
