The file 'Anycubic Chiron Light System 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 87.5KB.
This is my new design to add a light on the X-Axis of the Anycubic Chiron 3D printer.
To make this you require the following materials:
-PLA/ABS/PETG for the support that holds the LED Strip (Black it's suggested)
-PLA/PETG TRANSPARENT COLOR (Transparent neutral is better) for the Light diffusor
-LED Strip 35cm lenght
-3 screws M4
-3 T-nuts
-2 couple of 2 wires connectors
-about 60cm of wires red/black AWG26 or similar type (black is better)
If you use a 24V volt you are ok. If you have a 12V LED Strip (like me) You need also a StepDown power supply (3 euros in internet) to transform thw 24V to 12 V
You can take the power directly from the head box of the Chiron with the red/black wires and following the cable path (chain guide) to the light system.
In the Head Block you can find the +24V on pins 2,4,6 or 8 and the GND(-) on pins 14 or 15 of the BIG-RED connector that connects the headblock to the Chiron Body. The Pin1 is marked on the PCB with a square. The pins are so distribuited:
Square Pin
v
1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15
2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16
|...|..| ...............|.....|
...+24V................GND(-)
WARNING: Make the job with power supply OFF and before to switch ON make a double check of the connections.
