The Aus3D Mark2 3D Printer kit is designed to be a high-quality, easy to assemble kit-based printer. Quality and capability were the primary design goals, and the Mark2 is a printer that will not disappoint in these areas. It is based off of the RepRap Prusa Mendel i3 design, however the Mark2 has been redesigned from the ground up to be sturdier and more capable than traditional i3-based printers. Threaded rod and printed fasteners have been replaced with extra-thick 10mm acrylic, and the frame has been designed to to reduce vibrations - minimising excess noise and improving print quality, even during strenuous, high-frequency motions. The typical threaded-rod Z-axis has been replaced with an improved lead screw driven system, reducing Z-backlash and allowing for smoother Z motion. The rigid frame ensures all axes are held square, ensuring optimal print quality.
