lead screws vs threaded rod for z-axis in 3D Printer: Accuracy vs Precision


 lead screw (above) and threaded rod (below)

Threaded rod is, after all, not made to be used as a precise positioning tool. It is built to fasten and to remain stationary at all times.

from ProtoParadigm:

 

If a printer does use threaded rod for motion, the results will generally be better if the rods are suspended from the top  of the printer (as in a common Prusa design), supporting weight in tension rather than if the motors are on the bottom (see the now outdated Mendel design) holding the rods up and supporting weight in compression.  

Keeping the rods in tension rather than compression will minimize bowing and bending, though a bent rod can still cause problems.  While the deflection from compression may not be very visible, you can bet it's playing a role in your accuracy when your carriage is near the top.  Many printer designers minimize the compression issue by using very large diameter smooth rods that are more resistant to bending, but a tensile arrangement with or without larger rods is a better solution.

3ders: ditch the threaded rod and upgrade to a leadscrew for z-axis

calculate pH of phosphoric acid

Question: adding 1/4 teaspoon of 10% phosphoric acid  to 19 litres of water, what will be the pH? Let's go through the calculations step by step. Step 1. Convert mass ( or volume) of 10% phosphoric acid to mole per litre ( mol/L) The above calculation shows that 1/4 tsp of H3PO4 acid is 6.97e-5 mol/L Step 2. Input this value to BATE (or other app) to calculate pH The answer: pH = 4.16, ie too acidic !? If you use pipette instead of teaspoon,  1 drop = 0.05ml. So 1/4 TSP means roughly 25 drops If you actually aim for pH 5.6 (which is optimum pH for mashing), conc will be 2.51 e-6, or 1/100 tsp , 0.044 ml, roughly 1 drop Let's roll back a bit. From  recipes of   BarleyWine , summer rye , hefe Gordon Strong suggested to use 1/4 teaspoon of 10% phosphoric acid, which is targeting pH of 5.5..... Discussion on  homebrewtalk  forum. However using online BF water calc , Sparge pH would be 4.6. but he also added 1 tsp of CaCl2. 2H20. Mash pH change from 5.7 t...
