Makerbot 3D打印机装配教程 1.Preparation(准备)
Before we start building, we need to do a few things to make the process go a bit more smoothly.Follow the instructions on this page closely, because this will make the whole process easier.Estimated Time: 45 minutesDocumentationFirst step: read the documentation, so nothing is unexpected. Read it all the way through, from beginning to end, before you start putting anything together.Then, go ahead and start following the instructions on this page, followed by each of the other build steps.SoftwareFirst off, we’ll gather and install the software and drivers required for the Thing-O-Matic to work with your computer.Install the SoftwareKit ContentsOpen box and separate contents into piles.Make sure that you keep everything well-organized; there’s nothing worse than losing a small but essential part!Identify your partsToolsMost of the tools needed for assembling a MakerBot Thing-O-Matic are included with the kit, but there are a few other common tools you’ll need.This page will give you a comprehensive list of everything you might need.Gather your toolsAbout t-slotsMany parts of the Thing-O-Matic use a special construction: a combination of interconnecting slots held together by a nut and bolt. This page will give you a primer about how to properly make these connections for many years of service.About T-slot ConstructionLaser-cut PartsTake your laser cut wood parts. Find the small notch along each cut and apply gentle pressure to pop out all the cut pieces.Take a cloth and wipe down the edges of all the cuts to remove the residue from the laser.Build PlatformsOpen the bag for theHeated Build Platform Aluminum Plate.Identify the pieces of the Automated Build Platform (ABP) and put them aside.You’ll be building the Heated Build Platformconfiguration.Metal RodsRemove metal rods from bags. Both bags and rods will be greasy. Slit the bottom of the bags to remove rods. Wipe each rod down with your rag.Stepper MotorsLocate the stepper motors.Prepare the X and Y stepper motors.The motor pulley for the Y-Stage should have a 1/4 inch offset.The motor pulley for the X-Stage should have a 1-2mm offset.Tighten one of the screws against the flat edge of the rod. You’ll be adjusing the height later when the motor is in the bot.This is how you adjust the idler pulley:Tape wiresTake the kapton tape and wrap the stepper motor wires every 5 inches.WiresRemove the wires from the Automated Build Platform box and use the kapton tape to tape these wires together.Assemble Idler Pulley Stack
[*]Idler
[*]3 M4 25mm bolts
[*]12 M4 25mm nuts
[*]3 bearings
[*]Allen wrench
[*]pliers
Take an M4 25mm screw and bearing, Next take a nut and the allen wrench. Hold the nut with your fingers and turn the allen wrench to tighten the nut against the bearing. Put another nut on the screw. Take the wood idler piece with 3 holes. The bearing goes towards the back, tighten to the wood with 2 more nuts. You’ll need pliers to tighten.You should have a bearing, two nuts, the wood and two more nuts.Complete Idler Rib AssemblyRepeat this process 3 more times. The finished piece should look like this:TightenThe nuts should be tightened against each other to “lock” them in.Y-Stage Front and Back
[*]2 press fit/linear bearings
[*]Back piece of Y-Stage (Makerbot logo)
[*]Front piece of Y-Stage (Makerbot logo)
The press fit/linear bearing will only fit in one hole of the Front and Back pieces. Put the linear bearing in the wood where you see theredcircle with the black M and turn the piece over. Gently apply pressure to fix the bearing into the wood. Do the same for the other piece.
X-Stage
[*]front piece of the X-Stage
[*]back piece of the X-Stage
[*]4 press fit/linear bearings
Using a file, sand down the center slot about 1 mm. Then sand down an additional millimeter at the center of the slot. This will provide
clearance for the belt as it moves through this gap.Fit the bearings in the pieces, turn over on a flat surface and gently press into place.The Bottom and Top of Z-Stage
[*]Bottom of Z-Stage
[*]Top of the Z Stage
[*]4 press fit/linear bearings
To fix the bearings in the holes, place them in the holes, turn the wood over and lay on a flat surface. Gently apply pressure to push the bearings into place.Pay attention to the orientation of the bearings.
Both sets of bearings must be in the down position.Locate the Z-Stage Motor
Your Thing-O-Matic will come with the Moons Stepper motor. This is the stepper with the rod attached to it.Bolt the Z-Stage Motor Flange to Top
[*]Stepper motor flange
[*]Z-Stage Back
[*]4 M2x10 bolts
[*]4 M2x10 nuts
The Moons stepper motor flange will be on the Stepper Motor rod.Attach FlangeInsert 4 M2x10 bolts (you’ll find these bolts in a small bag).Insert the bolts through the nut as shown. When assembling the Z-stage the flange should face upward.
Place an M2 washer on the back of each bolt. Screw a nut onto each bolt and tighten. It is essential that the flange is attached tightly. Vibration during printing will loosen up the nuts and bolts. This is a difficult piece to adjust once it is in the bot.
Attach thumb wheelLocate two thumb screw knobs and two M5 bolts. (You’ll have three if you have a Stepstruder MK6+ in your kit.)You’ll find these parts with the Stepstruder kit. Using two pliers press each knob onto a M5 bolt as shown below. 2 of the bolts are the same size. One will be longer.Congratulations! You’re done with the Prep stage. On to the Z-Stage!

弘毅老师不是发过汉语的吗
额。。。。不是这款吧，这款没看到汉语的，先发英文的，然后慢慢翻译。 支持！！！{:soso_e179:} 买不起啊
:Q 过段时间就能买得起了，价格越来越便宜 这个现在有卖了吗？ 加邮费2000美元受不鸟啊=。= :)真的普便宜啊 请问要到哪里买THING-O-MAGIC的硬件包呀?谢谢 这个其实真的很难用，也许是不会用，我反正玩了几天就觉得没兴趣了，速度超慢，噪音不小，而且经常失败 等汉语的:$
