QuoteYoko ok i made a hotend holder for e3d hotend kindly review it and send me your feedback (i am a total noob in 3d modeling) Already told you in a private message that I don't own an E3D hotend for this printer. I don't even own a "Smartrapcore" anymore. My design is not compatible with the Smartrapcore anyway.by s0me - Smart_Rap
You can use aluminium gantry plates with V-slot, no need for plastic parts besides the hotend mount (maybe X carriage too?). I can't use V-slot with my corners because the T-slot has a 6mm center hole. Need to redesign the belt clamps or the whole X carriage. Belt tensioning is done via the idlers.by s0me - Smart_Rap
I think you mean the X axis. It needs belt tension.by s0me - Smart_Rap
I have to desgn the x carriage, hotend mount, cooling fan mount, endstop holder for Y axis. I'm not looking to gain print volume with this printer. The Z axis seems to work fine, no visible Z wobble effect / banding.by s0me - Smart_Rap
I used the F608ZZ as an idler on my P3Steel's Y axis, it worked fine but I switched to F624ZZ. Never used it on the Smartrapcore which only printed calibration parts. I'll create another topic in the Corexy subforum after I finish the conversion.by s0me - Smart_Rap

It's a DUET 0.6 from replikeo. Why would they put a 4 pin header instead of a screw terminal if it's meant for a hotend? Has anyone wired the hotend to those pins?by s0me - Duet
No, flanged bearings F624ZZ. You could replace yours with F608ZZ + a big washer and get rid of those printed sleeves.by s0me - Smart_Rap
Yes I modified the onshape files. Here is the link but the assembly and the edited parts are a mess: SCALU Custom The parts need adjustments because the belts are really close to the XY parts and may rub at the home and the end of the x axis. Another thing that I dont like is the smoothrod fixing method for the X axis. I ordered some T-slot wheels to convert it and use the extra space to mountby s0me - Smart_Rap
That is the travel speed while probing. You can only modify the travel speed (non printing moves speed) trough the slicer program or manually by editing the gcode file. Your adhesion problem is caused by the Z offset of the probe. Nozzle needs to be closer to the bed.by s0me - Smart_Rap
Its not a "Smartrap/Smartrapcore" specific problem, you will have better luck in the ramps/electronics sections. The heater cartridge might be the issue.by s0me - Smart_Rap
Maybe you need to turn the brightness up for the LCD to show text. On the back of the LCD, above the sd card slot you can find a pot.by s0me - Smart_Rap
Quote I'm now at the bed leveling stage and dealing with the belt-driven z-axis... Yuck is all I can say. I was in the process of leveling things and suddenly the motor "timed out" and the bed just dropped away jacking up my belt tension. I plan to convert this to a leadscrew but I'm missing 1 printed part so we'll try to get things working as designed for a bit. In ConfigurationAdv.h: // Defby s0me - Smart_Rap
Quoteblindsnake It ain't easy to sell 3d printers in kit and assemble them without having some problems before finishing it. Its the disadvantage of the kits I think. A lot of people from the reprap community would disagree with you. If the parts are good quality you will not have any problems building the printer. If I were selling printer kits I would check the electronics before sealing the bby s0me - Smart_Rap
You should adjust this #define XY_TRAVEL_SPEED 5000 // X and Y axis travel speed between probes, in mm/min then lower the acceleration settings and see what happens.by s0me - Smart_Rap
Are the drive gear teeth aligned with the bearing properly? They need to be in the middle.by s0me - Mechanics
I didnt test it yet so its still a work in progress. The vertical aluminium extrusions of the frame are 360mm long (original SMC Alu 300mm). Extrusions: 2060 x 192mm 2020 x 250mm x 2 Screws&nuts M4x25mm x 16 + 16 t-nuts M4x20mm x 2 + 2 nuts Here is the onshape link: Z axis corexy STL files and a dxf file attached.by s0me - Smart_Rap

Hi, This is my version of the Smartrapcore Alu Parts used for this build: - TR8x8 leadscrew with anti backlash nut - flexible coupling - F624ZZ bearings (instead of 608ZZ) - 16 tooth GT2 pulleys - 0.9 step angle / 400 steps Nema 17 motors for XY - 1.8 step angle / 200 steps Nema 17 motors for Z / E - J-head clone 0.5mm nozzle / 1.75mm filament - Ramps 1.4 + LCD - Mk3 aluminium heatbed + borosby s0me - Smart_Rap
I am building one with a leadscrew. My Z axis setup is inspired by the G&C printer but with the motor at the bottom and printed parts for the linear bearings and smoothrod holders. I am currently waiting for the leadscrew and few other parts to arrive from robotdigg, then I will start a topic to present the build.by s0me - Smart_Rap
I have a Rostock mini with the same problem. I did the A4988 mod like o_lampe suggested but nothing changed (besides motor sound?) Do you have any backlash in the traxxas joints? If I barely touch the effector at Z0 the nozzle will move and change position, I can feel it grabbing the paper harder.by s0me - Delta Machines
Did you find any solution?by s0me - Printing
Can you please post a close-up picture of the X/Y motor mounts ? I am building one with 8mm rods aswell. It looks like the smooth rod holders are too thin at the bottom. Are they tight enough?by s0me - Smart_Rap
Hello, I am about to start building a Smartrap Core with a build volume of 300x300x300mm. It will have a : 300x300 heatbed. (if I ever find it in stock ) The heatbed carriage (or howerver you call it), heatbed and a glass sheet of 300x300x3 mm would be too heavy for a single Z axis so I'm thinking of adding a second one and mount them to the side walls. Would it be better in this case to useby s0me - Smart_Rap
Hello, My AT Mega 2560 + RAMPS1.4 + MJ204B v1 LCD with marlin doesnt show me temperatures anymore OR it does show false temperature. I wanted to add a new feature to my P3STEEL: auto bed leveling. With everything in place the tower pro servo started to vibrate and make noise like it wanted to move and the temperature readings on the LCD went beserk(spiking between 26c room temp and 46c) I didntby s0me - RAMPS Electronics
