Step 5 - Final Assembly (1 of 2)

Product catalog summary
Visual Assembly Guide Overview: This document provides a step-by-step guide for the final assembly of the B9Creator 3D printer, focusing on mating the projector support with the X and Z axis assemblies.
Mounting Z Arm to the ZA-A Assembly:
  • Remove set screws from four linear guide collars and discard them.
  • Clean and oil the linear guides with lightweight machine oil.
  • Insert screws from the backside of the ZA-A assembly into the collars.
  • Align the Z Decoupler Frame over the nut, ensuring it slides side to side with minimal up-down movement.
  • Place the ZA-B assembly over the Z Decoupler Frame, engaging the Z Decoupler Mount.
Inserting Linear Guide Rods:
  • Insert the first linear guide rod and secure it by tightening the upper and lower collar locks.
  • Repeat for the other side, ensuring smooth movement of the table arm by hand-turning the lead screw.
  • If movement is not smooth, lubricate bearings and lead screw nut, and adjust ZA-A assembly screws for better alignment.
Mating the PS, XA, and ZA Assemblies:
  • Secure the ZA, XA, and PS assemblies using SA15 hardware, ensuring correct mating of the Z Axis Stepper Motor with the Lead Screw.
  • Feed XA Power and home sensor wires through the access hole to the ZA area and connect the Build Table Home sensor and lower limit switch wiring.
Final Connections:
  • Connect the top limit switch and secure with zip ties, clipping off excess.
  • Connect the Projector Control cable to the B9Creator Shield and secure cables with remaining zip ties.
Conclusion: The assembly process is nearly complete, with only one step remaining.

Align the Z Decoupler Frame over the nut as shown. NOTE: The frame should easily slide "side to side" on the nut but with almost no "up down" freedom. Gently place the ZA-B assembly over the Z Decoupler Frame, engaging the Z Decoupler Mount as shown.

Repeat on the other side. IMPORTANT! Turn the lead screw by hand to ensure the table arm moves easily and smoothly throughout the entire range. If movement seems to "stick", etc. make sure the linear bearings and lead screw nut are lubricated with lightweight machine oil. Also, you may need to loosen the 8 ZA-A assembly screws to allow the table arm fixture to "relax" and better align with the rods. Retighten the inner 6 screws first and then the outer 4 screws. Do not over tighten the outer four screws, just do so enough to secure the 4 linear bearings are trapped. This is a critical step in...
