Hypercube Evolution Y axis Euro frame (Y10 / Y12) by PaulArnold

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

As I dont like the brass inserts for the Hypercube evolution, I searched for a clamp style parts set. This way, I found Bruno's set from which this is a remix.
Unfortunately, the rod holes of the motor mounts and rear pulleys had different distances to the frame, so I could not butt the parts up against the frame.
Also, the hole for the M5 nut was too narrow and didn't fit the corner bracket of the european frame (like that from Bohrers shop)
I remixed the motor mounts and rear pulleys to that the rods runs parallel to the frame with a distance of 30mm. Please be aware that this version uses 10mm rods for the Y axis (like most do).
You'll need:
all parts printed, clamps printed 2x each
4 x GT2 pulley with 20 teeth
10 x M3 nut
8 x M3x20 DIN912 screws (for the 4 clamps)
2 x M3x35 or M3x40 DIN912 (for the 2 rear pulleys)
4 x M4x10 screws
4 x M4 hammernuts
6 x M5x10 screws
Instructions:
Clear all supports from the nut traps, insert nuts
Insert 2 GT Pulleys to each rear idler and fix them with a M3x35 or M3x40 screw
slide the 10mm rods into the motor mount and rear pulley of the corresponding side until the rod is inserted flush. Don't forget to slide on the LM10LU bearing!
insert M4 frame screw into motor mount and rear pulley and slightly screw on the hammernut
insert the assembly onto the frame (see pics)
slightly tighten the M4 screws
tighten 2 x M5 screws at the top of the motor mount
tighten 2 x M5 screws at the top of the rear pulley
tighten the M4 screws
Tighten the clamps with M3x20 screws
Done
EDIT 15.06.2019:
I uploaded a Y12 version upon request.
However, this version is untested as I dont have 12mm rods on Y.
