  • Page 4 Procedure watch video Measure the distance between both positions with a measuring tape, at the top and at the bottom. Adjust until you reach the same distance on both.
  • Page 5 Procedure watch video Using a measuring tape, check the distance between the nuts and the left linear guide in both positions, at the top and at the bottom. Adjust until they are at the same distance. Repeat the procedure for the left side.
  • Page 6 Procedure watch video Make sure that the screw length after the nut is the same on both four corners. You can even use a measuring device to check the distance between the PCB heated bed and the structure that holds the table to the bearings and make sure it is at the same distance on all four corners.
  • Page 7 Procedure watch video Add a small amount of lubricant: On X Axis bearings. On Y Axis bearings. On the top of the copper nut in each one of the Z threaded rod.
  • Page 8 B2X300_Firmware Updater Download the ’s B2X300 updater at folder B2X300 repository. Install this software. Connect the 3D printer to your computer through the USB cable. Turn on your 3D printer. Start the B2X300 updater software and follow the instructions given.
  • Page 9 It is necessary to confirm that both nozzles are at the same height. This ensures the inactive nozzle won’t collide with the parts already printed. This procedure is essential both for the dual extrusion but also for the single nozzle extrusion. Procedure Lower the X axis, rotating both the Z axis screws at the same time, until the nozzles are close to the hotbed, then center the carriage.
  • Page 10 Adjust both until the distance is the same. Untighten the 4 screws that hold the extruder heatsink.
  • Page 11 Rotate the extruder heatsink until both nozzles have the same distance from the hotbed. Maintaining that position, re-tighten the 4 screws.
  • Page 12 To ensure the proper functionality of the 3D printer, after you turn on your 3D printer, a Self-test Wizard will be executed. This procedure will validate and calibrate the main parameters. This procedure is not optional on the first use but it can be repeated if necessary, accessible at LCD Machine Settings/ Self-test Wizard menu: Just follow the instructions shown on the LCD display.
  • Page 13 It is necessary to confirm that both nozzle are at the same height. This ensures the inactive nozzle won’t collide with the parts already printed. This procedure is essential both for the dual extrusion but also for the single nozzle extrusion. Procedure Turn on your 3D printer.
  • Page 14 Rotate the sheet of paper and pay attention to which nozzle is the paper rotating under. Adjust the threated rod, rotate clockwise to move up the nozzle that is holding the sheet of paper, until you feel the paper is looser. Adjust the threated rod opposite from the one you already adjusted on step 9, rotating it counterclockwise to lower the nozzle.

    Next, you will learn how to set up your computer for operating the 3D printer. The recommended slicer software for operating this 3D printer is Cura 3, for which there is a project file (.3mf) for. This file is already set up for B2X300 and includes an optimized profile for PLA for this Printing_Profiles B2X300 3D printer.
  • Page 16 Finish. On the next screen, click the Procedure: Open Cura. Open the file .3mf in the SD card or download it in folder Printing_Profiles\B2X300_Cura_Projects B2X300 repository.
  • Page 17 Open as project Select option. Open Select for the B2X300 profile to be imported.

  • Page 19 Procedure Open the STL file in Cura, in alternative you can drag the file to the printer’s table in Cura. By default, with the 3D printer profile, an STL file of a bee will appear when the profile is imported. You can print it as a first test.
  • Page 20 Insert the SD card on your computer. Press Save to Removable Drive on the lower right corner of Cura, it will save the Gcode onto your SD card. You will also find an estimated print time as well as the material consumption. Save to Removable Drive Save to file Alternatively, you can press the arrow next to the...

Press the LCD button and select: Select the correct options according to the extruder and filament you wish to use. Usually Extruder 1 is used for single nozzle extrusion and Extruder 2 is only used for dual extrusion or if you selected...

    Print Press the LCD button and select the option. Select the Gcode you want to print from the list that will show up on the screen. Wait until the 3D printer heats up and stabilizes the temperature of the heated bed. Level Bed Wait until the 3D printer executes the procedure, where it will measure the heated...
  • Page 24 To be able to use both extruders on your B2X300, you will have to calibrate the distance between both nozzles, as well as make sure the height on both nozzles is the same. Please check chapter 3.4 on this manual to learn how to calibrate nozzle height.
  • Page 25 Print On the main screen, press the LCD button and select the Select the Gcode offset_x, also available here. Wait until the printing is done. Look at the line and find the point where the lines of both extruders are aligned on the X axis.
  • Page 26 From the centre of the object where there is the bigger line, count how many lines until you find the best result. From the centre to the right, the value is positive and from the centre to the left, the value is negative. Multiply the value obtained by 0.05mm, that will be your offset on the X axis, you should save this value.
  • Page 27 Multiply the value obtained by 0.05mm, that will be your offset on the Y axis. Example: -8 x 0.05 = -0.4 Open Cura. Make sure you have already imported the file with the B2X300 settings as mentioned on the chapter 4.1.
