Hardware for Cyclone-PCB-Factory

Version 2.0a

Adressing all the issues from the original design, and implementing improvements by yOPERO, Martin Zabojnik and others.

  • More robust design with tougher parts:
  • Better holders for the linear bearings (vibration made them slide away)
  • Reinforced nut/screw holders
  • Improved gears with smoother edges
  • Attachment for a vacuum cleaner
  • Better scalability (parameterized design)
  • Using a Dremel 200 as the spindle motor
  • Integrated endstop holders

Work in progress. Pending tasks:

  • Improve vacuum cleaner attachment (make it detachable)
  • Finish protective covers for the gears
  • Endstop integration for Z
  • Better plastic-saving holes for the X frames
  • Improve the nut holder in the X carriage (with the same spring mechanism as in Y)
  • Re-design the Z carriage after testing performance

The new design tries to be more parameterized:
