Adjustable Z End Stop for Creality, ANET, Tevo, Alfawise, Geeetech, etc.

Description

In this video I will show you how to change your 3D printer back from a problematic auto bed leveling (ABL) system to the reliable mechanical end stop switch. It isn't much work and requires you to only identify the GND and trigger wire from your auto bed leveling sensor. You should use a multimeter to confirm the process by which your printer "sees" the signal from your sensor. In most cases the trigger / signal pin normally sits at 3.3V or 5V and is pulled to GND when the sensor is tripped. You can then use a mechanical end stop switch to do the same by wiring the signal pin and a GND wire to the NO (normally open) pins on the end stop. When the mechanical end stop is triggered, the signal pin will then be connected to GND and perform the same function as the auto bed level sensor. I used the Creality Y-Axis switch that can be found here in this video: ► https://www.digitmakers.ca/products/cr-10-endstop-limit-switch?variant=10907822555172 I designed an adjustable bumper for the end stop switch that mounts to the vertical profile. You can find those parts here: ► YOU ARE HERE You will need a few M3 screws (10mm and 20mm length) and some M3 T-slot nuts to assemble and mount the adjustable bumper. This process and system should work on a variety of printer types such as Creality, ANET, Tevo, Alfawise, Geeetech, Raiscube, Sainsmart, etc. If you guys have any questions, please put them in the comment section down below, I will try and help everyone out! #MAKER #3DPRINTING #DIY **************************************************************** If you enjoy and have benefited from my content and are feeling generous I would love your support!
