Tronxy X3 Bed Enlargment
Description
Hi Everyone! Hope My Instructions Are Relatively Straightforward. Any Tips Are Greatly Appreciated. Enjoy! This Tronxy X3 Modification Allows For The Installation Of A Larger Heatbed, Up To Approx 330X330 Mm (Same Size As The X3S). Note: The Custom Parts Are A Work In Progress So Check Back Here For The Updated Versions. X/Z Axis: The Mod Involves Relocating The Z-Motors To The Outside Of The 2020 Uprights. This Means The X Axis Must Be Extended To Allow For X Motor To Sit Further Left (Using The Custom X Motor Mount In The Files Section). The Lead-Screws Will Now Need To Be Supported As They Sits Outside The Frame. I Have Designed Simple Holder That Can Take A Standard Bearing To Align The Top Of The Lead-Screws. (Lead-Screw Support Left And Right In The Files Section). The Extruder Can Now Be Mounted Quite Easily On The Right Z Carrriage. (See Photos For Better Understanding.) The 'X-Tensioner' Component (Not Shown In Pictures) Has Also Been Customized Fully To Fit Between The Right End Of The X Axis And The Extruder Motor. However The Tensioning Functionality Has Been Removed As Space Was Tight And Retensioning Is Only Needed From Time To Time. (Part Found In Files Section). Y-Axis: The Y Axis Is A Work In Progress. In Its Current State There Is Only Enough Y Travel To Use Approx 70% Of The Bed (I Aim To Use The Full 330X330Mm Bed). The Motor May Need To Be Re-Orientated As Well As Some Extended 2020 Extrusions. I Will Keep Updating As I Go. Further Notes: -Any Other Printed Parts You See In The Attached Photos That I Did Not Mention (Z Motor Mounts, Z Carriages, 2020 Braces Etc) Were Found Here On Thingiverse Uploaded By Various Talented X3 Owners. -Bigger Psu Needed To Satisfactorily Heat Bigger Bed. -Mosfet Needed To Accomodate Psu For Safety. -Longer Belts May Be Needed Depending.
