Ultimaker Factor 4 Repair Manual

Repair manual
Gantry module
The gantry is the XY part of the UltiMaker Factor 4 motion system. It is engineered for precision and reliability.
The gantry module contains motors, belts, pulleys, and the X beam on which the print head is mounted.
Note: The print head is not part of the gantry module and can be placed aside during this repair.
Although it is a complex assembly, removing the gantry module is quick and simple. The entire system can be
taken out of the machine in minutes. When the gantry requires maintenance, this can be done outside the printer
for better access to components. In case of an issue, swap the gantry for a replacement module for minimal
downtime.
Requirements
Level
• Operator level:
ordinary, instructed, or skilled
• Service level: 1
Notes
• Some components must be disconnected. Turn off the printer and disconnect the power cable before
starting this procedure.
• Before starting this procedure, prepare a surface on which to place the gantry after removal. The surface
must be flat, stable, and at least 600 x 500 mm.
• This process requires removing the print head from the gantry. Ensure both print cores have cooled down to
a safe temperature or remove them from the print head to prevent the risk of burns.
Tip: With the UltiMaker Factor 4 Service plan, a hot swap service is included. Simply remove the old gantry
module, install the replacement module, and place the old gantry in the packaging that the replacement
came in for reduced downtime and quick return shipment.
