The WorkBee Screw Conversion kit is intended to convert an older style belt drive V1.0 WorkBee, to a new V2.0 WorkBee.
-
To convert a V1.0 WorkBee to a V2.0 old WorkBee, the Y-End-Plates, and Y-Plates will need reversing. Therefore we recommend dis-assembling these plates completely.
-
In addition, remove the X-Axis NEMA23 Stepper Motor and any parts associated with the belt transmission system.
-
Once the above plates and parts have been disassembled, follow the Archive - Assembling Your WorkBee - V2.0, carefully comparing the images and text to what you have in front of you.
-
What you have in front of you should exactly match the guides.
-
Please continue to follow all the software setup guides, as the system settings will be different.
-
Thanks for following the guide. Any issues, please contact us!

Does the “Y-Plates will need reversing” phrase applies also when only the X axis is getting converted?
Hi @federico77 - They will need to be reversed too, This is mentioned here - To convert a V1.0 WorkBee to a V2.0 old WorkBee, the Y-End-Plates, and Y-Plates will need reversing. Therefore we recommend disassembling these plates completely.
