Voron 2.4 Aluminium Parts

[Michael.Strobl]

Hello everybody i want an screw bom for The Aluminium Parts

[Demosth]

Can you clarify what you are looking for? It sounds like you want a fastener build of materials for a specific set of aluminum parts? Can you link which set of Aluminum parts you purchased as well?

Thanks!

[michaelmacintyre]

Wouldn't the metal parts have the same BOM as the printed parts which you can buy from various retailers including aliexpress ?

Next week i try to assemble an Voron 2.4 350 with Metal Parts,

i post the bom After this

Not to put a damper on things, and I'm no expert, but a similar question was asked over in the Discord the other day regarding these aluminum parts for a V2.4. The veterans strongly advised against it (I think Timmit was one?). They pointed out the printer is designed with the properties of ABS for the printed parts in mind. That said, I don't see that the fastener BOM would be any different than the spec one.

I'm using the metal Galileo and have been for a few months and seems fine.

I will say though I don't see any improvement over the printed parts.

I built my printer around 6 months ago and used the printed parts for around 3 months and used the metal one for around 3 months and they both seem to perform just the same. I've seen posts say the metal one is too heavy but I haven't had to slow down prints since using it.

I do however think that the full printer made from aluminium will be extremely heavy if someone needed to move it around.

I have picked up a skin condition recently in my hands and it's very painful. I had to move my 2.4 350 and found it very heavy and awkward and I only have the Galileo in metal.

I am not going to go up stream on this as these questions of using aluminum parts has been around for a long time, at the end of the day it is buyer beware as they are said to be heavy.  Personally, I use them.  I also have a wielded frame which is also looked down on however I have not seen any downside to this.  I can say I have not seen any difference in prints with the aluminum parts.  I have however, been so thankful for the frame being permanently fixed as I move my 350 build a lot and before I would have to go around from time to time and check / adjust a frame rail, now I do not.

[michaelmacintyre]

Us Scottish people are small so I would probably struggle to keep moving mine around as I can hardly get my arms around it

 

 

[stevedjarrell]

350/3, yes it is a heavy beast.

 

[michaelmacintyre]

I had to print 2 carbon fiber handles for the top as i couldn't get my wee Scottish arms around it and yeah it's bloody heavy.

My new trident doesn't seem as heavy so I'm not sure if it's because it's all ABS or because it's slightly smaller at 300 spec instead of 350.
