I got a bug in my drawers to upgrade my printers to full linear... I print so much I keep wearing out the bearing wheels and have to replace them more regularly than I care for.
I've been working on and testing this design, and am very happy with is so far. I'm cranking out prints at 150mm/s with the stock hotend. I have a new heat brake and block to install that should get me up to 250mm/s.
I'll be redesigning the parts once more before I release, but this should be a full retrofit that reuses most of the original parts, and preserves the original part offsets so you don't lose any build area space. The final design will be a lot cleaner and more refined than blocky test parts. I'll be designing and releasing my own hotend cooling system as well that will incorporate a second 5015 blower for parts cooling.
More to follow!
I'm actually making the swap to full linear too. I have the Ender Extender XL kit, and I'm not loving the way the rollers work with it. I printed a dual Z setup but it's been fiddly. I'm hoping that the linear setup will get me where I want to be.
