Intro

After the assembly of the BugBu machine I tried various X carriages and toolheads but none of them satisfied me. So I decided to integrate the BMG extruder into the carriage itself to achieve a compact, stiff and easy to assemble thing.

This creation can be used for any machines with x2 8mm rods with 50mm distance. 

  • No crappy magnetic mounts
  • Full 235x235mm bed availability in the FlyingBear P902 frame
  • More off-bed clearance for nozzle wiper
  • No backlashes
  • Zip ties mounts for easy cable management

BOM

  • LM8UU bearings: x4
  • BMG parts diy kit
  • Small NEMA17 stepper
  • E3Dv6 hotend assembly
  • 4020 part cooling blower
  • 3010 hotend fan (use any high flow one)
  • BLTouch
  • Bunch of M3 heatsets
  • M3 screws
  • 2mm zip ties

Endstop remark

Because I'm using an old Soviet microswitch with his own mount as X endstop the endstop mount isn't provided but there is a M3 heatset hole on the carriage's back for any customization.

Other info

The BLTouch offsets are (-25, -18). The nozzle has  (y=-22, z=-36) mm offset from the bottom rod.
I printed my carriage competely from ABS. You can choose PETG if you don't plan to use this in the heated chamber.
