After 3 months with the Elegoo Centauri Carbon, I needed to perform some maintenance.

 

I was surprised that Elegoo did not provide on their own plateform the tools necessary for the maintenance / lubrification of the lead rods & screws.

 

After some research, I found out that Elegoo provide links for 2 tools on thingiverse:

I didn't like too much the official Elegoo application tool, as a lot of grease can stay within the big cavity. I've looked for alternatives on the different plateforms, and found 2 different approaches: straight and drafted cylinders. As both can be useful, I decided to remix one tool (originally by K2_Kevin) to provide both optons with the same tool, and ensured they would correspond to the dimensions of the ECC lead rods & lead screws.

I additionally added a hole to be able to hang it easily (see photos), and removed the text.

 

Finally, I find the Elegoo Lead Screw cleaning tool pretty effective, but multiple versions are available … so I decided to add in the ECC print profile the official Elegoo Lead Screw cleaning tool in order to help future users. I didn't modified the model at all, and just provide an optimized ECC printing profile. All rights remain with Elegoo.

 

Hope you will like the remix
