Stratasys uPrint - Retrofit finally Complete!
-
This is a great project. I have a uPrint which I am contemplating doing similar things to now. The only difference at the moment is I want to add water-cooled hotend and dual extruder, to increase the capabilities somewhat. I am thinking of taking out one of the chamber heaters and using that space to stick the radiator, putting the fan running into the chamber afterwards, still need to do a fair bit of experimentation with that part of it yet.
If you need any help with the programming of the firmware, I'd be happy to collaborate when I get to that point. I was also wanting to keep the original LCD display and buttons, but I haven't given this enough consideration yet.
Good work! -
if you want to print high tempature materials you will need a water cooled hotend, just run the water lines to the outside of the chamber, you will definitely need the cooling the printer is very well insulated.

@AJ-Quick Are you using the UPrint printer heads in your project?
-
I'm looking for some part for my Uprint and maybe some of you that are building similar projects might have parts to sell. If so, please let me know.

@drphil3d Hi. What is the part number of LCD you have used here?
-
@Electrosolz its a PanelDue 5i
-
@T3P3Tony thanks
-
@T3P3Tony paneldue 5i is not compatible with duet2 board. So the Duet3 board is used here. Am I right?
-
@Electrosolz the paneldue 5i is compatible with the duet 2.
for a new build/conversion i would stick to the duet 3 family anyway -
@jay_s_uk okay i will look into that

@lightface79 hi, have you found anything regarding colouring scheme of 120v psu?
