Voron Afterburner Direct Drive Mount for CR-10/Ender 3/etc. by TroyJoachim

Last crawled date: 3 years, 3 months ago

This is a modified mount for the Voron Afterburner to mount it to a CR-10/Ender style printer using a single 400mm MGN12H linear rail. It is modified from the new Voron Switchwire printer that just came out. It uses the same design with a single linear rail instead of the two like the larger Voron. I removed the probe and moved the whole extruder as close a possible to the linear rail.
It looks like the x endstop can just be flipped to the other side. I will have to test this as it comes pretty close to touching the linear rail carriage. A small spacer might be needed.
I uploaded the entire step file since it's still a work in progress. You can open it in Fusion 360 if you want to play around with it.
Notes:
Some of the screws will need to be a smaller size from the original Afterburner to accommodate for the smaller mount. I will add the updated screw sizes on here once I get mine built.
Updates:
10/21/2020 : I have everything printed and working. I'm doing some testing and configuring. I'm currently working on the cable chain mount.
