I've got two Ormerod machines, and I'm wanting to upgrade my Ormerod 1 to 2, however there are a couple of tweaks I'd like to make in the process. The problem is that the Solid Works design files for the Ormerod 2 seem to be incomplete on the github. It's also missing some things like the X axis dxf files and the standard nozzle mount (only has the quickset). The Ormerod 1 had an "Ormerod" assembly - is there a complete Ormerod 2 assembly file available? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,742650#msg-742650 Sat, 05 Sep 2026 07:23:03 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,754733#msg-754733 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,754733#msg-754733
We have both 0.5mm and 0.3mm Quick-set nozzles available here.

Let me know if there are any other parts you need and I can see if we have them or let you know where to source them.

Best wishes

Yeah you'll have to make new wires, buy a dupont crimp tool while you're at it.
If you're interested in going with the ormerod 2 look eMaker shop sells the powersupply and other reprappro tidbits still.]]> improprietary Ormerod Mon, 13 Feb 2017 15:07:38 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,747983#msg-747983 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,747983#msg-747983 The cable lengths are not the same because of the new position of the Y motor and end stop.
I'm not convinced yet that the ribbon cable arrangement will work with the new bed design.
The Power supply and electronics should ideally be on the Y max side like the Ormerod 2, but it's a little tricky to do and I haven't found any mount designs - I'll have to make my own.
The Power supply also doesn't have many mounting points.
Anyone else done this upgrade?]]> VortyZA Ormerod Mon, 13 Feb 2017 09:32:21 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,747861#msg-747861 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,747861#msg-747861
If you download the ormerod solidworks parts from github remember to grab their reprappro library with all the shared parts like screws, washers et cetera.
There is also a few improvements on thingiverse - if you search for "ormerod" - that i'd recommend, like the x and y axis belt tensioners]]> improprietary Ormerod Sun, 12 Feb 2017 20:51:49 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,743607#msg-743607 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,743607#msg-743607 VortyZA Ormerod Mon, 30 Jan 2017 08:28:10 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,742937#msg-742937 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,742937#msg-742937 github.com]

I believe 528.5 contains minor revisions but was not organised completely before RepRapPro closed down.]]> 0x0000 Ormerod Fri, 27 Jan 2017 22:20:52 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,742650#msg-742650 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,742650,742650#msg-742650 The problem is that the Solid Works design files for the Ormerod 2 seem to be incomplete on the github.
