Z Axis Stepper Replacement

thingiverse

This is a custom stepper replacement for a Z-Axis lead-screw, designed to work seamlessly with controllers that prefer using a single Z-Axis stepper connected to the second screw. It's an adapted design matching those used in spauda01's project on Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1001065). Hardware Requirements: * 400mm 8mm Lead Screw - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017AR5QBS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 * Flexible Couplings 5mm to 8mm - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016KFRR0O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 * 5x10x4 mm Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearing - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ZHSTKCE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 * GT2 Timing Belt Pulley 16 Teeth Bore 5mm Width 6mm - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019GI5DVC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 * 1 x M5x50mm Sockethead screw - Mr. Metric * 4 x M5x10mm Sockethead screw - Mr. Metric * 4 x M5 Square Nut - Mr. Metric Note: You will need to measure and adjust the GT2 belt according to your specific build requirements. I plan to share my tensioner and extra tower designs to complement this setup once I finish taking photos of the installation process.
