I’m looking at making a new printer. I’m thinking a core XY similar to a Voron, but I would be making it from scratch. I’m looking for something I can make reliable and accurate. I want to print PLA, ABS, TPU and more. I have a bunch of parts now that I would stick to.
235mm heated bed Revo hot end Nema 17 motors. BTT E3 mini, although I could use my SKR3 instead.
The easiest would be a bed slinger, but I am open to a Trident style. I like unique and challenging things.
What new features should I include? What should I avoid?
Why not just build a Voron? Other than your bed size, nothing else you listed wouldn’t work on a Voron build. If you want to make it your own, the design is fully open source so you can modify to your heart’s content. There are also a ton of “unofficial” and “official” mods.
It’s worth saying that CoreXY != bed slinger, so…
I design my own printers and like the challenge. Vorons are expensive and have a ton of parts. I like unique stuff. Ive made my own delta printer and conveyor belt printer. The limitations of those leave me wanting a more traditional style.
