In total, I spent about 400 hours developing and refining all the parts.
Upgrading one 3D printer cost $130.
Technical Specifications:
- Print area: 235x220x235 or 235x235x235
- Printing speed: 100 mm/s or more
- Acceleration: 10,000 mm/s²
- Firmware: Klipper
Construction:
- The 3D printer is easy to assemble and calibrate.
- The printer has a very rigid cantilever.
- The hotend is specifically oriented due to the cantilever design.
- Direct drive extruder.
- The frame can be inspected for calculations.
- There are several options for converting an old HyperCube: with print areas of 235x220x235 and 235x235x235. There’s also an option to build from scratch.
Conclusions: After spending $130 and 400 hours, I converted my HyperCube into a faster printer. I had a lot of fun and didn’t throw away the old parts.
P.S.
Someone might be interested in my project, and I would be happy to hear your opinion, even if you don't like the printer.
As a thank you to everyone who shares their work openly, I will also upload all the source files. You can find links to the source files and the purchased components on the MoonCake 3D printer page.
