Summary

Here is a replacement for Z motor mount of Prusa i3 MK2/MK2s/mk2.5 and MK3 printers. This fix the dimensions error on Z axis (issue 49)

Features

  • Stronger
  • Compatible with MK2, MK2s, MK2.5 and MK3
  • Fix issue 49
  • Quick remove of Z motor for maintenance
  • Tab on the back for perfect alignment
  • Dimensions of original Z mounts optimized for PETG
  • Z smooth rod are maintained in 7mm deep hole (instead of 5mm)
  • Selective infill technique to add strength on critical points
  • Use M3x12mm to fix the motor (instead of M3x10mm)
  • Open source by providing STL, STEP and Fusion 360 files

/! Warning /!

  1. Use M3x12mm to fix the motor (instead of the original M3x10mm)!
  2. Follow carefully to the print settings bellow because there is selective infill inside the part

Changelog

v1.0 : increase rod hole dia by 0.05
v1.1 : improve print quality inside the smooth rod hole, make Nema 17 a bit more tighten
v1.2 : add tab on back for best alignment with the frame (not tested yet, v1.1 still available) That was a bad idea, we cannot guarantee that the holes are perfectly aligned with the border of the frame.

Thanks for the awesome work done by Josef Prusa and team!
