Printrbot Play and Plus E3D Head Upgrade by PearceIndustries

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

Upgrades required for the Printrbot Play and Printrbot Plus to run an E3D Head, both need these spacers and modified block.
Note that the Nut hole for the adjuster is for (i think) an M5 nut, i pressed in an M5 nut and used the M3 bolt and nut that came from printrbot, i seem to have good retention.
the spacers get the head away from the plates used on the gantry.
the one spacer with the cut outs, goes in first, i recommend removing 2-3mm from the print side of the spacer that goes between the E3D head and the block.
The block is set up for the standed 13mm gear, note it may be too tight to turn so either spin it by hand or file accordingly.
sorry no pictures of plus but it will fit on play and plus to get online.
special consideration for the Play, you must use all the pieces because the edge of the gantry plates will touch the bed. you should still remove 2-3mm from the top of the spacer for perfect fit.
