Welcome to TULIP 2.0

"Everything will be alright as long as you have your -ing potato." - Mr. Tulip, to Mr. Pin, The Truth, by Terry Pratchett

"See a pin and pick it up, and all day long you’ll have a pin!" - Stanley Howler, Going Postal, by Terry Pratchett

A full pin mod for the AB motor mounts, XY gantry joints and front idler tensioners for the Voron v0.2

  • AB motors are mounted solidly to the frame, meaning no more shunting them back and forth with a bulky tensioning nut
  • AB motor shafts are held in double shear with an extra bearing, lowering radial force on the motor bearings
  • Tension is now applied through an M3 screw in the front idlers, and ALL bearing stacks run on pins rather than screws
  • Both MGN7H (stock) and MGN9C X rails are supported, WITH NO TRAVEL LOSS
  • Standard 3mm off-the-shelf pins, for those unable to cut their own
  • LazyCam support
  • Fysetc X light gantry compatibility (use standard XY joints)
  • Mamabot.io X light gantry support
  • Nema 17 AB Motor Mount Beta
  • Nema 14 - 35mm Shaft Motor Mount Beta
  • Live Idler XY joints + Tension Idlers

Installation

Go to the Releases Page and download the .zip file from the latest release.
