Description
PEI sheet alignment bracket for Artillery Sidewinder X2, X1 bed.
Print the second bracket in mirror image.
For the project we need:
- 3x PCB with a width of about 10mm or wider, the height should be selected individually according to your table (in my printer I needed a PCB with a height of 32mm).
- 6pcs of 3x12 screws
I printed from ABS/ASA, you can also print from PETG,
nozzle 0.4
layer 0.2
*********************************************************************
The bracket is printed, but I used PCB pieces to contact the hot PEI board, which are screwed to the walls of the bracket with 3x12 screws.
I printed the bracket from ABS/ASA (my printer is in a closed case), you can also print from PETG if you use a printer without a case.
You will need two PCBs to attach the PEI sheet to the back of the bed, and one PCB on the left or right side that the PEI sheet will be pressed against during assembly.
I chose the left side - in my printer, the left side has more clearance between the edge of the table and the z-axis profile.
In my printer, I use version 0 of the alignment bracket, which was designed for the theoretical dimensions of the table and its mounting screws.
Unfortunately, the printer's table mounting screws are not accurately glued in place, and the side wall of one of the brackets protrudes beyond the outline of the table in my printer.
In the supplied version 1, I moved the outer walls of the bracket back 1mm by adding 1mm thick washers.
This allows you to adjust the walls of the bracket to fit the bed by using washers of different thicknesses so that the edge of the bracket is tangent to the edge of the table.
