MAKE:
- The dimensions in the model are optimised for printing at 0.2mm layer height. Printing at other layer heights such as 0.24 or 0.15 would cause Z dimension inaccuracy.
- Print the 48 teeth pulley at 0.1mm height with extremely slow outer wall speed (under 10mm/s). Use glossy material instead of matte.
- Retract at all times while printing the frames. Otherwise the filament will ooze during travel and cause under extrusion at perimeters.
- No support needed for the three frames and bearing holder.
- Print top and base plate of frame at 100% infill. The compression spring apply massive force to the left side of top plate. Make sure it's rigid.
- Rub the cylinder pin on hard surface such as concrete or stone to turn it into a D shaft
- For Ultimaker 2, add a piece of 1mm silicon sheet between the motor and frame. This will reduce the retraction noise of motor vibrating frame
