3D Printers

• 2 people have reserved printers
• We currently have 2-3 printers ready for printing parts, so we need 6 more minimum.
• We have 14 people registered. It makes most sense to build 7 printers in the first 4 days - via a perfected workflow.
• If we have 10 printers printing - we can print parts for the 2" universal Axis. Basic ergonomics:
• Now the question is can we print a sufficient number of parts for 7 3D Printers
• Start with D3D v19.06 BOM

Overall

1. 6/12/19 - 40 GT2 pulleys, 15 mm wide
2. 6/3/19 - 105 meters (21x5)of GT2 belt, 15 mm, added to order - [1]. Tracking - https://www.dhl.com/en/express/tracking.html?AWB=4056587496&brand=DHL]

• Used in both 1" and 2" Universal Axis system.

1. 10 SSRs - [2] (5 packs of 2)

2" Axis

From the BOM, we have -

BOM

• Axes - 32' total (8 rods of 3', 4 rods of 2' for z) - $640
• Frame - 1/2"x6"x6" angle -$20/ft; 4x4x1/2 tube - $30/ft - 36 ' - $720 or $1080. Use flts to make 6-sided space frame per OSE industry standards
• Oil-impregnated 2" bushing - 8000 lb+ lateral force capacity- $9.41 - [3]. $240. 24 needed, 18 minimum. 2" is huge and weighs about 1 lb each if naval bronze acc to Metal Weight Calculator.
• Belts - see GT2_Belts#Belt_Drive_Cost - $12/foot x6 = under $100.
• Motors - 6 Geared Down Stepper Motors at $30 each -

Precision Drive

• 3D printed belt for low cost precision - needs development
• Multiple 15 mm GT2 Belts
• $25/meter for ball screw only -
• 1" ball screw set - $200/2 meter with complete set - [4]

• $25/foot

• .6" ball screw complete set, 2 foot travel - $50/foot
• $5/foot for 1" acme screw - [5]
