Description
Wood-D - Just another wooden 3D-Delta-Printer (Open Source Project)
Wood-D is a 3D-Delta-Printer based on LASER-cutted plywood. The joints are made of bearing balls and neodyn ring magnets.
Design Objectives
Specifications
| Principle | Delta / Rostock | |
| Construction | LASER cutted plywood 4mm (400x300mm, 5 pieces) | |
| Printing area | 180x180mm or circle 210mm | fits PCB Heatbed |
| Printing height | 200mm (typical) | depends on linear system lenght |
| Dimension base box | 337x296x60mm | |
| Dimension top box | 337x296x20mm | |
| Dimension printer | 337x296x650mm | depends on linear system lenght |
| Joints | Magnetic | |
| Drive | Stepper motors with timing belt |
Features
Based on the LASER cutted constructive parts you get a very high precision (nearly) without measuring and adjusting.
The plywood parts/puzzle are hold together with key and slots and a little bit of glue. Through the box design with cross bracing the stiffness is very high. The box design guarantees also a high angle precision.
Linear system rods are pressed in and the linear bearing are hold by a 2-componentt glue (epoxy).
All non plywood parts are standard industrial parts you can buy in online shops and eBay. (only drive shafts have to be sawed)
Necessary tools: LASER cutter (visit a FabLab/Hackerspace in your area), hand saw for metal, screw drivers, inbus keys, gripper, cutter, soldering iron
Parts
Base and Top Box
Linear System
Timing Belt
Joints
Extruder
Heated Bed
The base box is designed to hold a standard square PCB Heatbed. Alternatively a disk with a diameter up to 300mm can be used.
Electronics
Beta 1: Arduino Mega 2560 with RAMPS 1.4 shield and Marlin firmware
The electronic is in mounted a 'drawer' to easily adapt to other designs like Megatronics
Downloads
After the first beta phase the construction drawings and LASER cut files are going online. Please wait...
Current Status
Beta 1:
| Part | Status | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Base and top box | ready | minor bugs to fix |
| Linear system | ready and working | |
| Joints | ready and working | |
| Timing belt | at work... |
