Duet 2 Maesto Stepper Driver Expansion 3D model or PCB files?

tinker

I recently built a 3D model of the Duet 2 Maestro and now want to do the same for the Maestro Stepper Driver Expansion board. Sadly I did not find KiCAD project files for the expansion board in the Duet 2 Hardware GitHub.

After searching the forum I see it was designed by M3D specifically for their QuadFusion print head which I have. M3D have been defunct for a while now so no chance of getting it from them. I tried contacting them many times over the last year and got no response.

@dc42 mentioned Gerber files in a post from 2020. Can anyone provide a download link to these or any other resource that shows the copper traces and silkscreen for the PCB?

I know this stuff is out of production for over 2 years but I really want to complete my CoreXY build with a nice case for the Maestro that provides good cooling.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

@tinker Probably the best we're going to get, unless @dc42 can get permission to release the Gerber files, is the schematic pdf here https://github.com/T3P3/Duet/blob/master/Duet_Expansion/Maestro_Expansion/Duet 2 Maestro - Expansion Schematic.PDF and the screen grab from the post you linked. Did you do the mod to get P5 driver working better?

@tinker I have the Altium design files, if they are of any use to you.

I have the Altium design files, if they are of any use to you.

After a quick Google, it appears Altium to KiCad should be an easy conversion. Are the files open source now?

@dc42 I don't have Altium but I guess I could try working with the files. In the end I just want 300dpi raster or SVG files so I can create a decal graphic for a model. Sadly I think I may have fried my board so this may be a moot point. Will see if I can fix it first.

I'm using the driver expansion on my IDEX, but never had issues. Can you further explain the MOD or have a link, please?

@o_lampe it’s this this thread: https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/16124/

I need to add the info to the expansion board page.
