3D Printer Motherboard For Anet A8 PLUS Mainboard 3D Printer Motherboard 3 Way Output Mainboard Module For Anet A8 PLUS USB Interface

Product Information

The installation of these MOSFETs is pretty simple. The 3d printer board comes with extra wires that are pre-crimped and go all the way to the MOSFET from your main control board. After you are done connecting the control wires you will need to connect the DC terminals to the POWER SUPPLY UNIT. Here, we recommend using the crimped wires instead of the bare wires so that the chances of a short circuit are reduced. The next step will be to connect the hot wires to the heated bed. Just plug them into the terminals which say “hotbed”. This will be all. Just remember to use the crimped end wires for the MOSFET as well because the screw terminals will suit them better. Anet A8 Power Supply Upgrade Padarsey 12V 30A Universal You can rest assured that once installed; this ring-shaped fan duct will ensure that the blower’s airflow has reached your 3D printed object from all around. You can make it in as little as only a few minutes at most. The published required data for this item is available on Thingiverse. 4. Cable Chain For now, I did not try this extruder, as currently I have no need to print anything else but the PLA. Once I master my A8, I might test the Titan. This will not only give a really good look and feel but it will make your unit both safer as well as more reliable And using a neon orange or any other bright color will definitely add a touch of pizazz to your machine. Cable chain upgrades are also available on Thingiverse. 5. Belt Tensioners Like with a hotend, E3D Titan extruder enables you to print wide variety of materials without clogging. According to people who own it, it’s an expensive, but worthy upgrade if you plan to print with different types of materials. The Titan Extruder preforms leaps and bounds better than the Anet A8 extruder.

There are however a few points to take into consideration whenever you decide to go shopping for an auto-level sensor. Not all sensors are built alike and nor do they cost the same as well For instance, Some of them, such as the BL Touch, for example, are considerably more expensive than plenty of other options.Since this is quite a controversial topic, I’ll just list the things people use to improve their heat-bed adhesion. Currently I print with PLA on a yellow painters tape and have no problem with it, but I plan to try BuildTak and glass very soon. If you are an old hand in the 3D printing world, there is no doubt that you must have manually calibrated your machine at any one time or the other, at the very least. This is why you would be aware of the fact that it can be a major headache. This holds true for both beginners as well as advanced operators. Whereas there’s a wide variety of materials you can print with your A8, there’s no “best” one. This is because due to insane amount of modifications people do to their printers, it’s always hard to recommend a universal solution. Below list includes some of my favorites, but yet cost-effective 3D printing materials for my A8. Be aware that what might work for me, might not be the best option for you, due to differences in our setups. If you are printing ABS then you must add a MOSFET because in this case, the filaments need high temperatures and high bedding. But if you are using materials like PLA which require low temps, make sure that your bed isn’t causing a lot of stress on your mainboard and install a MOSFET anyway. Remember that the more efficient your setup is, the more quality finish you will have as these setups are dependent solely upon the hardware. Additional benefits

Now you’re almost ready to program! If you don’t yet know the port of the printer, on Windows you can use Device Manager. Open Device Manager and plug in the USB cable from the printer to the computer (I find it’s best to have the printer powered first). You should see a device appear under COM ports. Feel free to leave a link, but it would be good if you can elaborate in which way particular upgrade helped you make better prints or secured your printer. T corners are one of the most printed upgrades. It’s simple and it works well. These corners will make your frameless wobbly and more firm. There are tons of front braces available, I printed the one by user Leo_N and it fitted my printer perfectly. I also noticed the reduction in vibration.

Anet A8 Parts you can’t print

This project provides a board definition which enables the Arduino IDE to compile firmware (such as Marlin) for Anet 3D printers. It is used in the SkyNet3D Marlin distribution for Anet printers, but can be used independently to, for example, build Marlin from source. Installation Instructions Burning the bootloader to an Arduino always erases the flash memory. Once the bootloader has been burned using a programmer the programmer should be disconnected and firmware uploaded using the serial-over-USB connection. For your printer to work properly, it is very important that the machine should have enough tension on both the X and Y axis to make sure that the unit’s belts always stay tight.

Upgraded Heatbed & Mainboard】 Aluminum substrate heatbed comes with a glass panel so that the printing is smooth without a sharp edge and the model is easy to remove. The mainboard is safe designed with over-current protection, short-circuit protection, and a smaller current configuration. Guiding your filament to avoid its misguidance can be considered as a good upgrade as well. Even though it might have visible effects on your prints it reduces chafing of the filament. Also, it looks cool.However, this upgrade will definitely make your machine feel brand new. Best of all it also offers a whole lot of long-term value in the bargain.
