For me, the primary advantage of converting a budget machine like the Artillery Genius to use linear rails is for ease of maintenance: unlike the POM roller wheels and eccentric nuts, linear rails don’t need to be carefully adjusted to fit *juuust* right; and, if kept properly lubricated, they will not wear out or need to be replaced. This mask will appear and you have to check (spacebar) the Enable extra low-level configuration options.

To remove the roller wheel posts, use a wrench or pliers to hold the nylon locknuts above each carriage, and use a hex key to unscrew the bolt from below. I just did on both my Genius and Sidewinder X1, and it turns out to be a pretty straightforward process.If you’d like to talk more about Klipper, find me on the 3DPrintBeginner Discord Klipper thread and the Artillery Discord.

The Sidewinder X2 resumes the printing process without any problems after a power failure and triggers an alarm if the filament runs out. The geometry of the ground surfaces ensures that the carriage can only move along a single axis, and cannot wiggle or twist. They help us to identify popular products and understand your browsing habits so we can display relevant adverts to you. Enter the Settings tab again and under “ Serial Connection” change the “ Serial Port” setting to “ /tmp/printer”.As the successor to the world-renowned Sidewinder X1, the Sidewinder X2 from Artillery is characterised by new features and smart developments. Now we are ready to install the extruder, but first we need to install the heatblock to the extruder. The STL was sliced using a modified Filament Frenzy profile for Simplify 3D that can be downloaded from here. If you want to customize your own version of Marlin, you can visit my Github repo where also uploaded the source files.

On the Sidewinder X1 we get a large 310×310 mm heatbed made from glass that has a textured finish on it. Make sure that the wheels from the extruder are tightened and there is no play when trying to wiggle the extruder assembly. From inductive end stops to a direct drive extruder, this printer has everything we’ve come to expect in modern 3D printers.

The high-quality broadband power supply is underpinned by sophisticated technologies and a stable power supply. Use two 20mm M3 screws to bolt the fan assembly on the mount and make sure the duct is not touching the head block.

With the firmware flashed, you can now connect the TFT cable back to its original position and put the bottom cover back. With the same profile, i printed the MatterHackers’ Mascot Phil A Ment Devil Design Pink TPU, 205C, 0. This is a guest post made by whoppingpochard , an awesome member of the 3DPrintBeginner Discord Server. Out of the box, the prints are decent, but with a bit of tweaks and fine tuning that takes less than 1 hour, the printer can show its capabilities.I used a small 10 mm piece of PTFE which perfectly mates the end of the heat break with the BMG Aero. Unfortunately, the end stops are fixed to the aluminum profiles, so that subsequent adjustment requires additional effort.
