Qty | Part | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | 180° Servo MR996 | This is the servo I use, nothing special, but MG90S servos are definitely too weak. Ensure the servo has a rotation range of 180 degrees! Check the torque; u/BioKeks wasn't able to cut soft PLA with a 12kg.cm servo. |
1 | 5V Buck Converter | Prevents the ERCF board shutdown caused by the servo's high current draw. Can be wired to the PSU or used with a dedicated 5V PSU. |
1 | Exacto Knife Blade No. 11 | Example shape/type for reference. Higher quality blades are recommended for longer-lasting performance. |
- | Wire to Extend Servo Motor Cable | Use any cable you have on hand to extend the servo wire, as it is too short. Ensure the wire can handle the peak current of the servo motor. |
1 | Round Servo Horn | To mount the Servo Gear to the servo. |
4+ | Zip Ties | Same zip ties used during the ERCF assembly. |
1 | ECAS or PC4-M10 | Choose based on preference; both versions of the cutter arm are provided. |
12 | M3 Threaded Insert | Same inserts used during the ERCF assembly. |
1 | M2 Threaded Insert (3.2 OD) | Inserting these can be tricky, take your time. 😉 |
