Induction Probe on the Z Axis, Aluminium Brackets (3D Printer Part 15)

in #printing3d8 years ago (edited)

Hi, it is very long time I did not write about the 3D Printer, I am super super busy with the last feature to implement in the Slicer.

I choose to put Aluminium Brackets all around, they come in two sizes to accommodate the real estate constraints.
I need to receive a few additional fasteners and other goodies.

I decided to use an induction probe as a Z Axis endstop, I just have to modify the nut support to hold it. I put two symmetrical 12 mm holes for the probe, centred on the aluminium profile. I need to check for resistances/zener diodes in my stock for the electrical side.

Cold room 3D Printing is a pain, even printing very slow I had some under extrusion but it is acceptable for testing.

Forthcoming Parts

More structural assembly, induction probe testing/tuning, 400mm heatbed with 250V AC SSR, upgrade to TB66xx external stepper drivers I just feel the need to really use the torque available on my stepper motors (running in continuous about 2A, each TB66xx driver goes up to 4A)
