X and Y stepper motors are Kysan 1124090. Available from Ultimachine. Like the Z stepper motor, these motors require more current than the standard Makerbot X and Y stepper motors. You will need to use modified stepper drivers.

Let's see:

- Beefed Up Replicator Extruder Bracket: www.thingiverse.com/thing:33589

- (Unofficial) Replicator XL Case: www.thingiverse.com/thing:33265

- Replicator HBP Support Upgrade: www.thingiverse.com/thing:35059

- RepXL Panels and Doors: www.thingiverse.com/thing:33269

- Replicator 3mm Hood and Cover: www.thingiverse.com/thing:23386

 

Probably some other things I've forgotten.

 

Z motor, lead screw, and acme nut from Kysan. Part number is 1040094. Requires more current than the normal Makerbot Z stepper motor. You should use a modified stepper driver.

Thermistor circuit with CD-ROM audio connector wiring (MPC-2 connector).

 

For $5.60 US you can order three of these boards from OSH Park. That includes free shipping within the USA. Note that OSH Park always sells in units of three. The URL is

The sole required component (beyond the 100K NTC thermistor itself) is one 4.7K resistor which you can likely buy at a Radio Shack (Digikey S4.7KCACT-ND). The optional components are a 0.1 uF capacitor (Digikey 339-4151-ND), a MPC-2 connector (CD-ROM audio; Molex 0705550038; Digikey WM4177-ND), and a two position screw down terminal (Phoenix 1729128; Digikey 277-1247-ND).

3D Printer Shootout Testing - Day 3

14 wires total:

4 x stepper motor

2 x thermocouple

2 x heater core

2 x heatsink fan

2 x endstop switch (Common & NO contacts)

2 x print cooling fan

 

The X endstop switch (green & black wires, right edge of carriage) has only the common (C) and normally open (NO) contacts wired. These two wires will be routed back to a Makerbot v1.2 endstop PCB which has had its switch removed. REMOVE the switch from the PCB to prevent shorting the 5V and ground rails. Note that the normally closed (NC) contact is not wired. On the endstop PCB it is only used with the LED indicator circuit; it is not essential to the endstop's operation.

 

Note also that the endstop switch is here affixed with a wire tie. It is also possible to use two 2-56 bolts. The head of at least one bolt -- the one closest to the linear bearing -- must be on the underside of the carriage; otherwise, the bolt will interfere with the bearing.

 

This particular roller switch was purchased via Amazon, www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0052RTOTY/ref=oh_details_o07_s...
