P1 / X1 series - Bed rear axis cover V2

Updates from the V1 :

Since some users were having issues, I remodeled the entire cover to correct them. Thanks for the feedback !

 

This version should resolve all the issues that the V1 could cause to some printers, like errors during calibration or scratching the bed surface a little bit too much.

Model

This cover is designed to prevent dust and filament debris from falling into the small space between the bed frame and the rear axis.

 

It also acts as a third build plate guide in the middle.

 

It is 100% compatible with all printer movements and will not interfere in any way when installed on a P1 or X1 series printer.

Printing

Use the provided 3MF, print it with a filament that can handle the temperature of the bed without melting/deforming. 

Installation

Remove the build plate : Remove it to access the space under it. Remove any filament debris that might be stuck.

 

Snap the Cover In Place : Simply position the cover without applying excessive force, it should snap in easily.

 

Check for Gaps : Ensure there are no gaps between the little walls where the cover rests and the cover itself on each side.

 

Put the build plate back : The build plate should slide smoothly ~ 1mm above the cover

 

Once you’ve completed all the steps, your cover is now ready to go!
