Improvements in the beta version
- Increase bed size from 350x350x400 mm^3 to 400x400x400 mm^3.
- Use carbon fiber instead of aluminium for XY joiners to save 35% ~ 40% weight.
- To gain more space, move two Z drives to the front and one the rear side, as the placement in Tank v1.
- Use belts and pulleys to scale up the torque and stopping force of Z steppers, but not direct drives.
- Extend the legs of the bed toward the ball screws to lower the torque to the bed brackets.
- Mounting points for toolhead and bed drag chains.
- Integrate TriangleLab TBG AIR extruder + CHC hotend
