The Ender-3 short‑range upgrade bracket can be directly printed and installed. You’ll need to prepare four M3×12 screws to secure the stepper motors; the assembly is straightforward and compatible with MK8 extrusion kits (be sure to distinguish between left‑hand and right‑hand versions—this bracket is designed exclusively for the original Ender-3 extruder). One key advantage is that, once assembled, the carriage’s center of gravity is positioned closer to the X‑axis, resulting in lower inertia and smoother, more stable operation. If you have any questions about the installation process, feel free to leave a message—we’ve optimized this model for enhanced performance.
