RepRap Galileo
The RepRap 3D printer Galileo is a 3d printer open source designed by an Italian team-Team Kent's Strapper .It' s a derivated work from the model of the RepRap Prusa from which the movement of the axes X, Y, Z but have been substantial changes that have allowed achieve greater print area and a lower cost of implementation Release status: working

3d Printer final version Galileo by Kent's Strapper

Why a new printer??


We have to say what it was build a new printer

The Premises
The RepRap Prusa has an intuitive design and a system of simple and easy assembly, the plastic parts that make up the structure are easy to handle and require no great difficulty in mounting them with the mechanical structure, and allow to obtain results even without linear bearings and other benefits . The final structure is solid and makes it easy to transport thanks to low weight.

Bigger Dimension
The first step was to increase the size in proportion to the structure particularly with regard to measures that would be poured on cinghie.La structure has been developed in such a manner so as to have more space to print.

Cheaper Structure
Another significant change has affected the mechanical structure of the new printer.It was find a new structure that could use a smaller number of pieces and always have solidit.Similar to the mechanical also plastic parts have also been modified where

possible or completely renovated. all this has led to savings in economic terms but also in terms of time required to assemble the printer itself

Open Design
The structure of the new printer is made to have an open design that allow subsequent changes in every part, also the X-cart which moves the extruder-it was so designed as to be universal and can be used with any type of extruder .The 'print area is easily accessible for a heated bed or in order to analyze the subject in print a The Plastics Part can be downloaded here: LINK (https://www.dropbox.com/s/zg7dnwcw1d7j29r/GalileoplasticsSeptember2012.rar)

Elettronics
The model does not have a particular electronics because it is compatible with all types of those on the market,

Benefits of the model:


Quick and easy to assemble Model Spare plastic Intuitive: easy to assemble and print Number less than threaded rods Number less than smooth bars Amount less hardware Belts shorter Open Design Extruder in view X-Cart is compatible with all types of extruders available Printing area easily accessible Print the objects in view

MAKE THE BASIC STRUCTURE Components Required 2 x 420mm threaded bar 12 x M8 nuts 2 x Foot 2 x top down 2 x bearing support XZ 1. Take one of the four threaded rods by 420mm and is avvitino two dice as in the figure, one towards the end and one towards the middle of the bar itself

passo 1

2. Take now the plastic piece bearing support 608 XZ face and pass the threaded rod in horizontal hole of the workpiece same orientation shown in Figure

passo 2

3. Following the figure slide the plastic piece to the M8 nut placed in the middle of the bar and screw it another M8 nut to tighten the plastic piece, it does not matter because finally tighten will subsequently oriented. Finally, we take another M8 nut and screw it to the beginning of the bar as shown in figure
