q3k's Pullstruder
PET bottle recycling machine. Based on the Recreator3d by Joshua R. Taylor, but with a few twists.
Work in progress.
Electronics
Mainboard is a Melzi 'v5.0' with an ATMega1284P. Reused from a TRONXY X1.

Button Matrix
Based on a voltage divider between button(s) pressed and a constant pull-up to VCC.
Resistor to VCC: 4.7k
Button | Resistor to GND | Voltage when pressed (VCC=5V) | ADC Value |
---|---|---|---|
Left | 470 | 0.45V | 93 |
Down | 1k | 0.87V | 180 |
Menu | 2.2k | 1.6V | 326 |
Right | 4.7k | 2.5V | 512 |
Up | 10k | 3.4V | 697 |
Firmware
In progress, written in Rust. Aims to be purpose-specific and not just a repurposed 3D printer control firmware.
