Iphrojekthi yeRepRap isize kakhulu ekusakazekeni kwamaphrinta e-3D, kangangoba uma kungenzeka, umhlaba wokuphrinta kwe-3D ubusazobe umile. Kule phrojekthi, edala iphrinta ye-3D enezinto zokwenziwa ezenziwe ekhaya, ukukhetha i-electronics enhle noma kunalokho ibhodi yesilawuli kubalulekile ngoba ayibeki kuphela intengo yephrinta kepha ilawula nempilo yonke yephrinta.
Kuze kube manje i-electronics ethandwa kakhulu futhi esetshenzisiwe bekuyi-RAMPS, kepha muva nje isethuliwe iphrojekthi yokubuyisa imali ukufaka ukusakazwa kwebhodi elingazamazama umhlaba wonke, ibhodi libizwa ngeBhodi ye-Alligator.
I-Alligator Board yehlukile kokunye ngezici zayo, hhayi kuphela ngoba iqoqa iphinde ihlele kabusha yonke imisebenzi ye-elekthronikhi yangaphambilini kepha futhi ngoba yengeza ukusebenza okusha njengokufakwa kweprosesa ebhodini nenqama yayo nenkumbulo ye-rom (32- I-Bit ARM, ama-32 mbits we-flash nama-64 kbits we-eeprom). I-Alligator Board nayo iyakwazi ukuxhuma nokusebenza nge-Raspberry Pi ngakho-ke ukuzimela kwephrinta ye-3D ephethe leli bhodi kungaphezu kokucacile. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uma lokho bekunganele ukuba nakho konke lokhu, i-Alligator Board inembobo ye-Ethernet enekheli layo le-MAC elizokwenza noma iyiphi iphrinta ye-3D ixhunywe kunethiwekhi sengathi iphrinta ejwayelekile.
IBhodi ye-Alligator inganwetshwa nge-Raspberry Pi
Lezi zici ziyiziteleka kakhulu kepha akuzona zodwa eziseBhodi ye-Alligator. Ngokuvamile, into efanayo esingayenza nge-RAMPS esingayenza ngeBhodi ye-Alligator, ngendlela ecishe icace kancane kepha iyafana.
La umkhankaso wokubuyisa imali Iqale ezinsukwini ezine ezedlule futhi isivele ikhiphe cishe ama-euro angama-2.000 10.000 kuma-euro angaphezu kwe-30 adingekayo, yize kusele izinsuku ezingaphezu kwezingama-3 ngaphambi kokuphela komkhankaso. Ngemuva komkhankaso, kulindeleke ukuthi ukuthunyelwa kwamapuleti nokuthengiswa kuzoba phakathi kuka-Ephreli noJuni, ngakho-ke singasho ngaphandle kokungabaza ukuthi kulo Khisimusi sizoba nomthwalo omusha wamaphrinta we-XNUMXD anokusebenza okusha nezici ezintsha . Futhi kubenzi kakhulu, amahora namahora wokuzijabulisa.
