z-Axis for 3D printer - CorEssentials

prusaprinters

<p>This is the belt-driven z-axis assembly of my CorEssentials project. This is just an abstract of the whole project for people who just want to use a belt driven z-axis in there project.</p> <p>In my built I used a 16T pulley on the Motor for z-Axis and a 188mm GT2 glosed loop belt to connect it to the 80T pulley. This will give you a 5:1 ratio (500 steps/mm at 16 µ-steps with 1.8° stepper).</p> <p>To built 1 z-Drive unit you will need:<br/> 1 Nema 17 Stepper<br/> 2 GT2 20T Pulley, 5mm bore<br/> 1 GT2 16T Pulley, 5mm bore<br/> 1 GT2 16T Toothed Idler, 3mm bore<br/> 1 d=3mm, L=15mm rod (for z-Idler)<br/> 1 d=5mm, L=40mm rod (for z-Drive)<br/> 1 GT2 closed loop belt (L=188mm)<br/> 2 M5x6 Threaded inserts</p> <p>You can find the most recent files on the GITHUB-page:</p> <p><a href="https://github.com/MacNite/CorEssentials">https://github.com/MacNite/CorEssentials</a></p> <p>The 80T pulley is from the Voron - you can find out more about the Voron here.<br/> <a href="https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-2">https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-2</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: 3D Printer Parts Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong> CorEssentials</p> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Supports:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong> 0.2mm</p> <p><strong>Infill:</strong> 25%</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> - ABS Black<br/> <strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>The parts don't need support material.
