BOM says 20T Pulleys but Docs say 16T

[ccfman2004]

The BOM says I need 2 GT-2 20T 6mm Pulleys (5mm bore) but the documentation for the XY motion says it's 16T pulleys. Which is it supposed to be?

[Yeriwyn]

Either would work, with the correct rotation distance set in the klipper config. It should probably be 16, but I don’t want to change the bom to update it since there are already kits made with the specified parts.

[ccfman2004]

Okay. I thought there was a typo in either the docs or the BOM. Maybe make a note in the docs so others don't get confused if kits use 20T pulleys. People might think they got the wrong parts as I did.

[ccfman2004]

Is there any benefit to using the 16T pulleys over 20T? I have both types of pulleys now but just curious if there is any noticeable difference between them print wise or torque wise?

[Yeriwyn]

There might be a small difference in torque, and there would be no difference in print quality. But to even see the torque difference you’d have to be running the machine at maximum, and I don’t know if you’d even see it at 24v, it might need a full 48v setup Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef>
