A lot of people had trouble finding information on the stepper motors, I was able to find a data sheet on all of the steppers except for the Z-axis stepper which is a Nema 23. There are some things you should know about the existing machines in order to complete this build. The parts that I kept in place are the stepper motors, the endstops(at least the X and Y) and mechanical setup of the smooth rods, the frame and the outer casing. The first part of working with these machines essentially involves removing everything proprietary about them, that includes the electronics, the electronics mounted on the X-carriage, the filament spool cartridge readers in the bottom and for me I also removed the hot-ends, I've seen people that use the existing hot-ends but I wanted to be able to print high-temp materials and didn't want to deal with the fuss of a machine that is basically a RepRap with some unknown hot-end produced by 3Dsystems. This page will have links to all the files, parts and firmware configuration and software necessary to run these printers as RepRap machines rather than 3Dsystems machines.
CUBIFY CUBE PRO REVIEW FULL
The electronics, LCD, power supply etc are replaced to produce a printer with a 300x300mm heated bed, 1, 2 or 3 hot-ends, a 24V power supply for the heated bed and electronics and stepper motors and a full graphic LCD controller with SD card support. Check that out here: The point of this page is to show how the printer can be converted into an open source RepRap machine by stripping everything out of it except for the stepper motors, endstops, smoothrods and frame itself. The end result being an Amazon review page where 83% of the reviewers gave the product 1 star. The Cubex Duo and Cubex Trio are printers by 3D systems released sometime around 2012, 2013, with a hefty price tag and a proprietary system they created a lot of disappointment to customers.
