Cairo Open Source CNC Machines ============================== Is a project started by Ahmed Ibrahim as a move to spread the digital fabrication technology between everyone and anyone. That came from his fascination with how fast and easy these machines can turn ideas and sketches into reality and prototypes with almost no need for a previous tech background. The main goal of this project is to make easy-to-build, fully open-source, truly reproducible CNC machines that anyone can reproduce. Using popular, easy, and available components in the Egyptian market. Not only open-source! but also fully documented. To make it easy for anyone with or without technical knowledge to follow along and make his/her own machine. In this page, you will find an up-to-date parts list, fabrication, design source files, and full assembly guides.

Cairo Mini 3d-Printer

We are introducing the Cairo Mini 3d-printer! It’s a DIY fully Open-source Reproducible 20x20cm 3d-printer. The original goal of the Cairo Mini 3d-printer is to create a low-cost 3d-printer below 220$(3500 LE). That anyone can build with ease.

• Stop abusing open-source! The machine is truly, fully open-source!
• The machine is doable in any fablab or makerspace.
• Fully documented With BOM, design source files, fabrication files, assembly guide.

Source Files & BOM & Assembly Guide

You can find all the machine details on the official project page Make Some Stuff Website

Machine STEP file

You also can download the Machine design step file from STEP file on Grabcad

Electronics

The electronics of the machine is based on Arduino Mega and RAMPS V1.4. of course you can choose a different control system!

Mechanics

The mechanics of the machine is based on the Openbuilds Aluminium profile system. Its rigid and easy to assemble!
