The model replaces the defective magnetic wheel of the Elegoo Mercury X Wash Station which made loud noises after a few days of use and no longer turned the liquid in the tank. After a brief inspection, it became apparent that the plastic connection between the stepper and the magnet wheel was cracked.
With the help of the following model, the defective magnetic wheel can be replaced and optimised. The axial bearing serves as a support so that the entire magnetic force does not have to be held by the stepper wheel connection, and instead is supported by the axial bearing.
Print settings:
- Material - PETG
- Support - OFF (Magnet/Bearing face up)
- Infill - Cubic (20%)
- Wall lines - 3
Additional Parts Required:
- 4x M3 threaded insert
- 1x M3 screw ~20mm
- 1x M3 nut
- 1x Axial ball bearing 12x23x7.5mm
