Nema 23 Extruder mounting converter
Description
This Is A Plate To Convert A Nema 23 Mount To A Nema 17 Plate. It Allows You To Mount A Cheap Chinese Metal Extruder Meant For A Nema 17 Onto A Nema 23. You Have To Drill Out The Extruder Gear With A 6Mm Drill (And Wiggle It, The Shaft Is Actually 6.35) But If You Have A Spring Loaded Extruder It Doesn'T Matter If It Is A Little Eccentric. The Nema 23 Has *Huge* Torque Compared To A Nema 17, Typically Nema 17 Have 10 - 50 Ncm Torque (0.1Nm - 0.5Nm) Whereas A Nema 23 Is Measured In Whole Nm Usually Between 1Nm - 5Nm (100Ncm - 500Ncm) So Basically 10 Times As Much Power (Yay!) I Would Be Telling A Lie If I Said I Never Had Motor Slip Now, But It Only Happens If I Do Something Stupid (Usually Too Thin A First Layer As I Cram It Into The Plate To Get Adhesion!) But Otherwise? No, Never :) Anyway, I "Only" Have 1.26Nm Motor From Ebay That Cost £16.50! The Mounts To The Nema 23 Are M5, The Mounts To The Nema 17 Are M3. I Found I Had To Turn The Nuts And Bolts Upside-Down (E.G. Bolts Push Through From Bottom)
