to a computer.
X, Y, Z Towers
Looking at the front of the printer (facing the LCD screen), the left tower is the X, the right tower is the Y, and the back tower is
the Z. These designations are used when leveling the bed and during troubleshooting procedures.
Carriage
There is a carriage located on each linear rail which is attached to each tower. The cumulative position of each of the three
carriages determines the position of the gantry. Attached to the carriage are the connection rods that support the gantry.
Gantry
The gantry is the hotend and its components. It is connected to the three carriages by the connection rods.
