Beacon3D scanner probe - Apollo and Apollo mini (req: X linear rail)
🕑 Added 2023-03-21 00:32:45 +0000 UTCNew probe with ultrafast mesh, and no contact. There was interest, took the gamble of buying it, not knowing if it would work with this setup or not. But it did!
If you want to get it, make sure to get the "normal" version. https://beacon3d.com/product/beacon/?attribute_variation=Normal
(they may ship worldwide)
Requirements,
- beacon3d probe Normal model
- Klipper
- X linear rail setup
- a free usb port (type A) on your Pi or Pi alternative.
- no glass bed, magnetic sheet are good
- Apollo or Apollo mini
- two M3x6 or M3x8 button head or thin flat head (socket head are too thick)
- ender3/pro/v2 type machine (and gutted Fokoos Odin5 F3)
They don't recommend chains, so I would bind it with your PTFE tube.
This probe has special requirement, with no metal 20mm above it, so placing it under the fan is likely not a good idea. So had to go to the back, but that means wheel setup are sadly not compatible.
Very easy to setup.
Z offset is about x:0 y:25~30mm
Z tilt and Screw tilt calculate, are fully compatible
You will need new ducts, with mounting point in the back.
