You can replace the GE5C bearings with IGUS models. There are two IGUS spherical bearings types: the KGLM and EGLM series. The EGLM are compatible with the files found in the Z_Joints folder, the KGLM require the files located in Z_Joints/Phalanx.
First just insert GE5C bearing , it should just pop in
Now if you are using the "No Endstops" version you need 4 m3x16 screws per z joint, if you are using the endstop/halleffect version then you need 4 m3x20 per z joint.
Use an M5x20 BHCS and 1 m5x1mm washer and screw it into the gantry using a roll in tnut
This is how it should be assembled when all done
-
if you are building a new printer using the ge5c mod, then i recommend the offset parts
-
if you are just installing these in a currently built printer then the stock non-offset parts are fine
