Therefore, two build options are available. The prototype printer, with a build volume of 300 x 300 x 300, met with all expectation but did show some small bed vibrations when printing at high speed due to the large bed and counter levered design.
Increase the stiffness of the printer to further improve / reduce vibration artefacts.Scott liked the belt arrangement on the Hypercube compared to other core-xy 3d printers and designed his own remix to further develop the corexy design to reduce the number of printed parts and simplify the build.ĭesign goals for the HyperCube Evolution 3D Printer: The HyperCube Evolution also known as H.E.V.O is a CoreXY printer designed by Scott 3D and inspired by the original HyperCube 3D Printer by Tech2C.
There are a number of mods and add-ons that allow you to upgrade your printer. The Hypercube Evolution is one of the main Core-XY designs you’ll find on Thingiverse.

If it helps, it's a standard build (200mm³ print size), 2020 extrusion, 10mm carbon fibre w/polymer bushings, 8mm (7.96) steel rods w/LM8LUU bearings, held together with those crappy Banggood brackets (maybe this is part of the problem?). Being the first large print I've done I thought I'd test the movement first and noticed the wandering. I didn't really notice the problem initially as I was only printing small parts, but it arose the other day whilst preparing to print a large (180x100 ish) piece. I've tried multiple combinations of belt tension tight, loose, one tight one loose etc. Same goes for the Y axis home X & Y, start moving along the Y and the carriage moves to the right the further away from home I go (and again, disengages the X endstop at around 30mm from home). It's a good couple of mm or so movement at either end, enough to disengage the Y endstop at around 40mm of X travel. For example, if I home X & Y, then start moving the carriage along the X axis, the right bearing block starts moving towards me and the left one away. There's a slight twist somewhere that's causing the X/Y carriage to wander somewhat at the extremities of the bed. So I've just taken my 'cube completely apart and started to rebuild from scratch, on a flat glass table, making sure to align/square the frame as best I could (armed only with a set square) and I'm still running in to the same problem.
