Upgrade my trusty old CR10(S) to PRO
Goals I wanted to achieve:
- Go to 32 Bit Board (BigTree SKR v1.3)
- Implement 2208 Trinamic Steppers
- Make it dead silent. (Dropped from 68 Decibel to 32!!!)
- Get rid of the clumsy control Box
- Make it Safe
- Printable on the CR10(s) print volume
- The guts easy accessible for tinkering without turning the machine over
- Use as much original component as possible
#### On request added the following compatible Low Voltage Cases:
+ Creality CR10 Stock main board (Melzi) compatible low voltage box.
+ MKS Gen L (Tevo Tornado)
+ SKR Pro V1.1 .
+ Duet Ethernet
+ SKR E3-DIP v1.0 + PI 4B
+ **NEW** SKR 1.3, 1.4 and PI 4!
## Due to popular demand added case compatible with: SKR1.3, 1.4(Pro) with PI4. **Note:** WIFI module support NOT implemented. (Make no sense in combination with PI.)
####__You can harvest the original control box for most components. That saves you a lot of rewiring. You have to shorten most of them tough.__
I use the biggest Noctua fan I could fit in because they have the best pressure to noice ratio. This 120mm one is dead silent. Personally I don't need a fan protection. It causes fan noice and block air intake and I'm not afraid of plastic bits falling in. But for you who like, I aded a low voltage cover with (no support needed) fan protection.
__UPDATE:__ *Due to popular demand I aded a closed fan cover. It should just fit but watch your bed level bolds! I did not tested this myself. It consist out of two parts you have to glue together, the low voltage cover and the frame thing.*
__UPDATE:__ *Designed a beautiful screen holder that suites well*

In my setup I use a Solid State Relays and 230 Volt silicon heat pad for the heat bed but that's not necessarily. If you choose so the power supply has so much overcapacity that it will not need any active cooling. So I turned down the speed of the power supply fan with a resistor.
I manage to keep al the high voltage stuff in one separate sealed and closed compartment. This is the area you don't need to access very frequently so this makes it a safe design. For the fun of it I include one layer thick infill letters for printing it in two colors.
You need to rase the printer 55mm. I included a Squash Ball feet that acts as a vibration damper But you'r free to use another design as long as they'r not came in conflict with the boxes.
Included in the design are mounts for a Raspberry Pi (Octoprint) and A couple of step-down converters.
For the screen you can use the original or a new fancy touch one I ordered. Cases for this are plenty on Thingiverse.
Have fun making and if you have any wishes or commands please let me know. Oh share a Like if you like it?!
#####Last little tip: Revisit this page just before you actually start making it if you planed so. Maybe small things are changed based on feedback or personal experience. ;-)
