The RepRap 3D printer Galileo is a 3d printer open source designed by an Italian team-Team Kent's Strapper .It' s a derivated work from the model of the RepRap Prusa from which the movement of the axes X, Y, Z but have been substantial changes that have allowed achieve greater print area and a lower cost of implementation

Why a new printer??

We have to say what it was build a new printer


The Premises

The RepRap Prusa has an intuitive design and a system of simple and easy assembly, the plastic parts that make up the structure are easy to handle and require no great difficulty in mounting them with the mechanical structure, and allow to obtain results even without linear bearings and other benefits . The final structure is solid and makes it easy to transport thanks to low weight.

Bigger Dimension

The first step was to increase the size in proportion to the structure particularly with regard to measures that would be poured on cinghie.La structure has been developed in such a manner so as to have more space to print.

Cheaper Structure

Another significant change has affected the mechanical structure of the new printer.It was find a new structure that could use a smaller number of pieces and always have solidità.Similar to the mechanical also plastic parts have also been modified where possible or completely renovated. all this has led to savings in economic terms but also in terms of time required to assemble the printer itself

Open Design

The structure of the new printer is made to have an open design that allow subsequent changes in every part, also the X-cart which moves the extruder-it was so designed as to be universal and can be used with any type of extruder .The 'print area is easily accessible for a heated bed or in order to analyze the subject in print a

Benefits of the model:

  • Quick and easy to assemble Model
  • Spare plastic Intuitive: easy to assemble and print
  • Number less than threaded rods
  • Number less than smooth bars
  • Amount less hardware
  • Belts shorter
  • Open Design
  • Extruder in view
  • X-Cart is compatible with all types of extruders available

Parte I

MAKE THE BASIC STRUCTURE

Components Required

  • 2 x 420mm threaded bar
  • 12 x M8 nuts
  • 2 x Foot
  • 2 x top down
  • 2 x bearing support XZ

1. Take one of the four threaded rods by 420mm and is avvitino two dice as in the figure, one towards the end and one towards the middle of the bar itself

passo 1


2. Take now the plastic piece bearing support 608 XZ face and pass the threaded rod in horizontal hole of the workpiece same orientation shown in Figure

passo 2

3. Following the figure slide the plastic piece to the M8 nut placed in the middle of the bar and screw it another M8 nut to tighten the plastic piece, it does not matter because finally tighten will subsequently oriented. Finally, we take another M8 nut and screw it to the beginning of the bar as shown in figure

passo 3

4. Take now the piece plastic Foot and orientation shown in Figure-bar must pass through the hole horizontal piece of the same plastic-fits into the threaded rod from the beginning

passo 4

5. Take a M8 nut to tighten the plastic piece on the bar

passo 5

6. Take now the plastic piece Summit Low and orientation shown in figure face pass the bar threaded hole in the horizontal piece of the same

passo 6

7. Take a M8 nut to tighten the plastic piece on the same bar as shown in figure

passo 7

8. At this point, if you have followed the instructions you have got a st ruttura equal to the figure below, with the plastic piece bearing support 608 XZ facing left

passo 8

9. You Need to repeat the whole process to make another similar structure, but with the plastic part Bearing housing 608 XZ facing right as shown below

passo 9

You will have so two structures equal to the figures indicated:

Using the Printer with the Sanguinololu-=

To start using the printer you need to follow these simple steps:

  • insert the USB cable into the adapter, then collgare the USB to the Computer, you will initiate the installation of the device, the computer will do everything automatically and will tell COM-N equal to the number of com-installed successfully installed
  • Connect the USB cable to the board
  • Turn on the power supply, the leds to indicate the card operation
  • Use the software to connect to Pronterface card with Baud Rate of 115200
