All-metal, portable, high-speed, low-cost advanced multi-tool desktop factory derived from LulzBot Taz and TazMega. Specifically designed as an easy upgrade path for existing Taz machines. Personally, this upgrade will be applied to my old Taz3 machine, to provide redundancy and additional throughput for the TazMega.
Be aware that the TazMega should be considered if extreme thrust (ie. heavy milling), precision (sub-micron), build area (2m x 2m), or direct-extrusion are critical considerations.
- All-metal, no plastic mounting brackets.
- Belt-drive X/Y, ACME threaded rod Z.
- Composite metal structure with timber reinforcement. Maximum rigidity at minimum cost.
- Simple assembly, 8 wheel minumum, no carriage plates, no spacer blocks.
- Support for piercet's bed plate, among several others.
- Gantry plates are the only custom hardware required.
- Specifically designed as a low-cost upgrade for existing Taz machines.
- Specifically intended for use with MightyTool.
Please examine the design closely. Alternative subsystems and innovative simplifications have been included.
