450mm 3030 Extrusion

440mm 3030 Extrusion

420mm 3030 Extrusion

90 Degree Corner Assembly

Install one corner assembly onto each end of both 440mm 3030 extrusions as shown. Tighten the M6x12 screw to secure them.

Ensure the corner assemblies are flush and square with the ends of the extrusions after tightening the screws

Assemble the 450mm and 440mm extrusions together as shown, making sure the extrusion joints are square

Tighten the remaining M6x12 screws to secure the exterior of the subframe together

420mm 3030 Extrusion

Position the extrusion as shown. The measurements shown should be equal and will be 205mm for a 300x300 frame

90 Degree Corner Assembly

Install the corner assembly as shown, and secure both M6x12 screws

Check that the 420mm extrusion is positioned correctly and is square

Install the corner assembly as shown, and secure both M6x12 screws

Check that the 420mm extrusion is positioned correctly and is square

Measure both of the distances shown using a long ruler (preferred), or a tape measure. The measurements should be equal to each other, and should be as close as possible to the following:

200x200: 509.3mm

300x300: 650.7mm

400x400: 792.1mm

500x500: 933.5mm

If the measurements are not equal, and are not close to those shown above, double check all corners are square and then check again

90 Degree Corner Assembly

Install one corner assembly onto each position shown. Tighten the M6x12 screw to secure them.

Ensure the corner assemblies are flush and square with the ends of the extrusions after tightening the screws

Set this assembly aside until Step 17

Assembly from the previous step

Corner plate assembly

Secure the corner plates to the extrusion by fastening the five M6x12 screws

Check all of the corner plates to make sure they are square to the extrusion, and flush with the ends

5x 440mm 3030 Extrusion

6x T-Plate Assemblies

Assemblies from Step 8

440mm 3030 Extrusion

Install one 440mm 3030 extrusion onto the top and bottom of one corner assembly as shown

Tighten the marked M6x12 screws to secure the 3030 extrusions to the corner assembly

Install the opposing corner assembly onto the other ends of the 3030 extrusions as shown

Tighten the marked M6x12 screws to secure the corner assembly to the 3030 extrusions

Repeat the above steps for the second assembly

It is highly recommended to check the end assemblies for squareness before proceeding

End assembly

Place an engineers square on the lower 3030 extrusion as shown

Carefully slide the square towards the corner

If the connection between extrusions is square, there should be no gap between the long edge of the square and the extrusion next to it

If the connection is not square, loosen the M6x12 screws connecting the corner plate to this extrusion, adjust in the directions shown and then check for squareness again

Repeat this process for all four corners on the assembly and then repeat everything for the second end assembly

End Assembly

505mm 3030 Extrusion

Install one 505mm 3030 extrusion onto each side of the end assembly as shown

Tighten both the marked M6x12 screws, and the corresponding ones on the other side, to secure the 3030 extrusions to the end assembly

Install the opposing end assembly onto the other ends of the 3030 extrusions as shown

Tighten both the marked M6x12 screws, and the corresponding ones on the other side, to secure the end assembly to the 3030 extrusions

It is highly recommended to check the frame assembly for squareness before proceeding

Partial Frame Assembly

Place an engineers square on the lower 3030 extrusion as shown

Carefully slide the square towards the corner

If the connection between extrusions is square, there should be no gap between the long edge of the square and the extrusion next to it

If the connection is not square, loosen the M6x12 screws connecting the corner plate to this extrusion, adjust in the directions shown and then check for squareness again

Repeat this process for all four corners on the partial frame assembly

T-Plate Assembly

Follow these steps for each of the 6 T-plate assembly positions shown:

Align the T-plate assembly so that it is flush with the 3030 extrusion

Measure the gap between the T-plate assembly and the corner plate assembly

For a 200 build, the measurement should be 80mm

For 300, 400 & 500 builds, the measurement should be 130mm

Secure the T-shaped plate to the extrusion by fastening the three M6x12 screws

Double check all measurements before proceeding to the next step

505mm 3030 Extrusion

Install one 505mm 3030 extrusion onto each side of the Enclosure 2.0 frame as shown

Tighten the eight marked M6x12 screws (four per side) to secure the 3030 extrusions to the frame assembly

440mm 3030 Extrusion

Install the 440mm 3030 extrusion onto the Enclosure 2.0 frame as shown

Tighten the four marked M6x12 screws to secure the 3030 extrusion to the frame assembly

Repeat the following steps for all three extrusions installed in the previous step

Measure the gap between the two extrusions in multiple positions

For a 200 build, the measurement should be 170mm

For 300, 400 & 500 builds, the measurement should be 220mm

If adjustments need to be made, loosen the six marked M6x12 screws, adjust the position and then re-tighten them

As previously instructed, use an engineers square to check the frame for squareness

These measurements are critical to ensuring the CoreXY components are positioned correctly

Spending additional time getting these extrusions square and positioned correctly will prevent a lot of issues later on

If you plan to use an electronics panel, it is highly recommended to assemble and install it now. Installing a single, large, panel after further assembly is not possible

If you do not plan to use an electronics panel, or plan to use a split panel, you may skip to the next step

Electronics Panel Assembly

Electronics Subframe Assembly

Fasten all M6x12 screws to secure the electronics panel to the electronics subframe assembly

Enclosure 2.0 Frame Assembly

Electronics Subframe Assembly

Pay attention to the orientation of the electronics subframe

Slot the electronics subframe assembly into the V-Core 3.1 frame assembly as shown

The gap shown between the V-Core 3.1 frame and the electronics subframe should measure 47mm minus the thickness of your electronics panel on all machine sizes

For example: Using a 4mm thick electronics panel, the gap would measure 43mm (47mm minus 4mm)

Once positioned correctly, tighten the marked M6x12 screws to secure the electronics subframe in place

To proceed with the assembly, the four marked corner plate assemblies must be removed

Corner Plate Assembly to remove

Loosen the three marked M6x12 screws on each plate and place them aside

You will require two of the corner plate assemblies for Step 21 and two for Step 22
