Detailed Change List
- Einsy Rambo Motherboard
- Marlin 2.0 Firmware
- No longer supports runout sensor
- Wiring changes to endstops
- MK52 Heated Bed
- Thermistor soldered to bed PCB
- Connector for thermistor wires
- Screw terminals for power connections
- 24V Integrated Power Supply
- System is switched to 24V.
- PSU is now bolted to the frame in the same position that Prusa uses.
- Power switch is on the PSU as well as an AC power connector.
- Spool holder had to be moved. Spool holder is now mounted to the side of the power supply.
- Pulse HV is switching to 1.75 mm
- 1.75 mm filament has a higher surface area to volume ratio, so it can be melted faster. Switching to 1.75 also lets us consolidate parts by using the same threaded heat sinks as the v6.
- Frame changes
- With the power supply bolted to the frame on the right side and a new frame brace on the left side, the frame is much more rigid. This will improve print quality.
- New Y carriage to support the new bed
