I just purchased myself a Vertex Delta for quite cheap and was interested in doing some potential mods. It’s already got a linear bearing mod on it though I’d like to swap them for Polymer bearings another user had suggested.
I’m most interested in upgrading the motors, be that the motor itself or adding in smoothing/damping curcuits to make them quieter.
Likewise to reduce noise and vibration upgrading the belts. I’ve noticed that all the belts, although tensions pretty much as hard as I’m willing to pull them, rattle and vibrate an awful lot. I’d like to change them to a rubber fbg reinforced.
Hi ryv,
I made spanners with a m6 bolt at the top works great, also 6 springs under the bed let 3 screws away, so I can level with 3 screws. Also upgrade to Marlin 2.0
No vibration and noise here.
If you do not mind, can you clarify why you only use 3 sprung screws rather than the original 6? i presume its very difficult to balance the bed between 6 screws.
Additionally where did you get your heated bed element from? Is it quite plug & play?
Hi Ryv,
correct about the 3 screws, with 3 good result leveling.
And not plug and play, you need also 12V 10A DC adapter (mine AliExpress) i got a case as stl for the print. And i made it that in the printer it has a plug to connect it easy.
