Darwin Design Fault Log
Hi, if there's any design faults you've discovered on the way to building your Darwin, please log them here...
| | Victim | Problem | Status |
|---|
| | Adrian | Can't reach lower belt clamp bolts on the X carriage, unless with a rounded hex key | Instructions updated |
| | Adrian | X Belt clamp label wrong above "X axis assembly" in figure | Can't find it... |
| | Adrian | Notch the hypotenuse of the bed corner plates so it jigs up better | Model updated |
| | Adrian | 20mm caps on tensioner corners? (More travel) | Instructions & BOM updated |
| | Chris | Moulds for X & Y pulleys too small, I suggest 14mm for 16 teeth | |
| | Chris | Idler pulleys too big, should match drive pulleys | |
| | Chris | X-motor bracket is too low to meet the Y belt | Can shim with a pair of y belt clamps |
| | Chris | Y & Y flags should enter opto from the side | |
| | Chris | Z flag should have a flat top | |
| | Chris | Y belt clamp has a pitch of 13mm but the holes in the x-carriage are 12mm | |
| | Chris | The slot in the opto-brackets is slighly too small for the five pin opto | |
Thanks!
