Most kits for upgrading the Ender 5 to a dual Z are provided with a plate to build the second Z axis inside the Ender 5 frame. Unfortunately, this will decrease the printable size of your bed as the hotend may collide with the lead screw. Specially if you have added a dual fan cooler like the Satsana, Hero Me, etc.

This plate replaces the kit's model, so the second Z axis is built outside the Ender 5 frame. Like the kit's plate, it will pinch the Ender 5 bed plate so you don't have to make holes or any modification to the Ender 5 bed plate.

To pinch the ender 5 bed plate, you can use:

 

  • The 2 plates provided in the kit (but they are little bit too thick).
  • Two 120 x 25 x 2 plates (OMIdeas or any other). As you can see on the photos, I have used 4 OMIdeas plates. Two above and two under the plate to strengthen it.

 

Printing:

  • Filament: PLA ; PTEG
  • Layer height: 0.2mm
  • Infill: 80% - 100%
