well then no dampers or heat sinks. One of the support guys that emailed me order the dampers for his machine to try them. I had meant to run some cylinder prints before and after to see how much more the affect the print quality and forgot.. He said he would try and report what he finds.. some peop...

From Tech support the data sheet on the stepper http://www.kysanelectronics.com/Product ... ordID=8368
Max temp 110C

Thanks Tim, but I think this will be fine. Got the dampers on the motors and wow it is quiet but still going to replace the bearing on the X axis this weekend as it is much rougher than this new one I slid on the rail when I had the motor and belt off..

I sent a mail to support to get the operating temperature range of the steppers. I have been printing for a few hours with pla and and external fan over the build platform in a semi-enclosed enclosure (top and 2 sides open and motors are around 120F, room temp is about is 82F. With the enclosure clo...

Yes, I did notice that the motor was HOT and I figured as that was why.. However these motors are rated at a very high temperature so I will enjoy the quiet for now. Others have posted they had them installed on multiple machines running production level stuff for a year and only removed them due to...

When I was at the RepRap festival in June and saw what looked like cheapo printers running and heard no noise I was like,, hum.. wonder why the m2 sings a song.. Dampers! So I installed one of the washers from the 2 unused scr...

Rolled my own

MG support sent me a bearing cartridge to replace the Y cartridge that seems to be making an odd noise. However, I don't want to pull the old one off and have all the bearings go a bouncing, just in case there is actually nothing wrong with it. Before I attempt to measure and model a copy of the pla...

I know I posted it for someone playing with PETG.. Did I give you a link to a factory file with a model for an item I print in eSun PETG on my M2? This would give you all of my setting and the model.. if filament diameter is correct it should print perfectly.. assuming .35 nozzle is installed I woul...

Your starting hight is still off by .06 too high Should measure 2.0 +- .02 I like mine to be 1.98 > 2.01. Of course assuming accurate caliper. What printer is this anyway? What slicer What Filament and have you pulled out a couple or yards and measured the diameter in multiple places to make sure it...
