Delta DP200 instruction manual Drilling Holes to Depth, Adjusting Spindle Return Spring

5.After the belt is positioned on the desired steps of the motor and spindle pulleys, move motor (D) Fig. 26, to the rear until the belt is properly tensioned and tighten tension lock knob (B). The belt should be just tight enough to prevent slipping. Excessive tension will reduce the life of the belt, pulleys and bearings. Correct tension is obtained when the belt (C) can be flexed about 1" out of line midway between the pulleys using light finger pressure.

DRILLING HOLES TO DEPTH

Where a number of holes are to be drilled to exactly the same depth, a depth stop is provided in the pinion shaft housing and is used as follows:

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.

2.Insert bit into chuck.

3.Lower the spindle until the pointer (C) Fig. 27, lines up with the mark on the scale (D) you wish the depth of the holes to be drilled. Then tighten lock screw (A). Return the spindle to the up position.

4.Place the material to be drilled on the drill press table. Raise the drill press table until the material to be drilled just touches the drill bit.

5.Drill a test hole to check the adjustment and readjust if necessary. All holes will then be drilled to the exact depth as indicated on scale (D) Fig. 27. NOTE: Scale (D) is calibrated in both inches and millimeters.

RETURN SPRING

The spindle is automatically returned to its upper most position when the handle is released. It is recommended that the handle be allowed to slowly return to the top position after each hole has been drilled in the material. This spring has been properly adjusted at the factory and should not be disturbed unless absolutely necessary. To adjust the return spring, proceed as follows:

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.

2.Loosen nuts (B) and (E) Fig. 28. Make sure spring housing (A) stays engaged with head casting.

3.While FIRMLY HOLDING spring housing (A) Fig. 29 pull out housing and rotate it until boss (D) is engaged with the next notch on the housing. Turn the housing counterclockwise to increase or clockwise to decrease spring tension. Turn nut (E) until it contacts spring housing (A), then back nut (E) out a 1/4 turn from spring housing (A). Tighten nut (B) against nut (E), to hold the housing in place. IMPORTANT: Inside nut (E) should not contact spring housing (A) when tightened.

DP200 specifications

The Delta DP200 is a cutting-edge 3D printer designed specifically for professionals and enthusiasts seeking an accessible and versatile solution for additive manufacturing. With its user-friendly interface and advanced features, the DP200 stands out in the ever-evolving landscape of 3D printing technology.

One of the main features of the Delta DP200 is its delta configuration, which allows for high-speed printing without sacrificing precision. The delta architecture utilizes three independent arms connected to a print head, enabling smooth and rapid movement across the build area. This design results in reduced printing times and higher accuracy, making it ideal for detailed projects.

The DP200 incorporates a robust and reliable extruder system, which supports a wide range of materials, including PLA, ABS, and PETG. The ability to use multiple filament types ensures that users can experiment with different colors, strengths, and finishes to achieve the desired results. Additionally, the printer’s heated build plate aids in material adhesion, reducing the risk of warping during the printing process.

Another significant characteristic of the Delta DP200 is its enclosed build chamber. This feature enhances temperature control and minimizes external environmental factors, allowing for the consistent printing of complex models. The enclosed design also improves safety, ensuring that users can operate the machine with peace of mind.

The printer boasts a high-resolution print capability, with layer heights as low as 50 microns. This level of detail is particularly beneficial for producing intricate designs, prototypes, and small-scale production runs. The seamless integration of a smart leveling system further elevates the user experience, as it aids in maintaining the perfect distance between the nozzle and the print bed.

Connectivity options on the Delta DP200 are versatile, featuring USB, SD card, and Wi-Fi capabilities. This allows users to easily upload designs and manage print jobs from various devices, facilitating a more efficient workflow.

Moreover, Delta’s proprietary slicing software is tailored for optimal performance with the DP200. This software includes features such as customizable settings, print previews, and support generation, helping users fine-tune their print projects with precision.

In summary, the Delta DP200 is a feature-rich 3D printer that combines speed, precision, and versatility. With its delta architecture, broad material compatibility, enclosure for enhanced safety, and high-resolution output capabilities, it is an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced 3D printing enthusiasts looking to push the boundaries of their creativity.
