I’ve been hunting for the specifications of the various parts of both SM and SM2. Hidden among several forum posts I’ve now found the official specifications page for both. Unfortunately I cannot include both the links here because my account is too new. The one hardest to find was the SM2 specifications:
The specifications are hard to compare, not only between the versions, but also between the models.
I’ve gathered the specifications I was able to find, both here (for the SM2 enclosure) and across the knowledge-base. I’ve purposefully stayed away from external sources, since I don’t have anything here to compare or validate them.
Here is my first attempt at collecting the specifications in one table. The spreadsheet should be able to be commented on by anyone who clicks. If you have issues, or if there’s something I missed, please let me know.
If this isn’t useful, or duplicating a better page, can you point me at it, since I’ve been unable to find it thus far.
Items with ?? are shown with a red background. I don’t have an official source for that information. I’m human, so I may have made transcription errors, please feel free to point them out.
For the dimensions I went with the following definition.
Facing the machine, the dimension between the left and right side is Width. It’s depth is the distance between the front and the back and height is the distance between top and bottom. I’m pointing this out because it seems that the specifications aren’t consistent, some using length which appears to be width and width, which appears to be depth.
I’m not sure if your interested, but I can give you specifics on the grease used in the linear rails, the holding torque, heat bed power consumption, and several other specifications. All from either SM support emails, staff forum comments, or direct observation.
If you have links I’m happy to add as many rows as needed, this is what I was hoping for when I started this. I’ll add empty placeholders for what you’re proposing.
I’m adding rows as we speak, but because some of this is completely new to me I may be calling things by the wrong name, categorising them incorrectly and potentially making errors in units, so please let me know where I’m wrong!
Edit: Added section for Heated Bed, Linear Rails, Lubricant and Stepper Motors.
Edit 2: I’ve now also added the source links for information that came from anything that wasn’t in the official specifications. Hopefully I got them all.
I’ve added a few more rows to the spreadsheet incorporating the information in it.
Are there specifications about things like maximum feedrate, input and output power for the CNC, maximum travel speed for the print head, the weights for the various modules, the overall weight of the SM?
I’m building a document that contains information from various “official” sources, when SM publishes something, or a staff member mentions something on the forum, or a forum member shows an email with information, so there is a single place where specifications might live.
I’m happy to share the Google Sheet with you and give you editing rights if you are interested.
@Edwin, supplementary question, the PDF you sent has an entry “Waterboard & Clamping Kits for CNC”, is that a typo, should that be “Waste Board & Clamping Kits for CNC”?
Missing in @ITmaze’s sheet and your doc is the speed of the linear modules. This detail is also a parameter of the Fusion 360 machine specification files. I’d appreciate it if you can get that info from your engineers.
First post to the forum here and a new Snapmaker owner/user but not new to 3d printing and CNC.
I’ve been trying to find some information on the power consumption of the A350 in its different configurations, Printing, Laser and Milling. I can set up current probes and figure it out but i thought I would check before I decide to have at it.
Just go straight to that. The only information I’ve ever run across about current consumption is that the rate of heating the bed is limited by current capacity. (The heated bed uses DC that goes through the main power supply.) And that information was only qualitative, not quantitative.
It’s too bad that this system didn’t get designed in such a way that the various modules are required to report their current consumption. It wouldn’t take much: a single A/D pin and a precision 4-terminal resistor. When you design a modular system that in its fullness has an arbitrary number and combination of modules, you’d really like to be able to measure current consumption automatically.
Yes I saw the documentation glossed right over that. I will have to do three samples, one for each module. Right now I need the printer more than anything but once I get some numbers I’ll share to the group.
There also five linear modules, a heated bed, the main controller, and a touchscreen. The Z-axis modules will typically have the highest loads of any of the linear modules.
