Upgraded motherboard and re-wired 3D printer
-
Upgraded extruder, nozzle and cooling fan ducts
-
Reduced noise through added damping and heatsinks on motors
-
Added wireless print functionality and control as well as remote viewing via webcam
-
Added LED light kit for improved remote visibility all hours of the day
-
Automated print process through addition of automatic bed leveling - required modification of G-code source code and re-flashing of motherboard as well as significant tuning and setup to properly 'zero' after the initial flash/install.
-
Additional prints to fill 'channels' to prevent plastic buildup from excess plastic.
-
Modifications to extruder housing and printer filament guide to prevent 'catching' in the filament and cable bundles during printing.
