INTRODUCTION
Before you begin on your journey, a word of caution.
In the comfort of your own home you are about to assemble a robot. This
machine can maim, burn, and electrocute you if you are not careful. Please
do not become the rst VORON fatality. There is no special Reddit air for that.
Please, read the entire manual before you start assembly. As you begin wrenching,
please check our Discord channels for any tips and questions that may halt your progress.
Most of all, good luck!
THE VORON TEAM

THIS IS JUST A REFERENCE
This manual is designed to be a simple reference manual. Building a Voron can be a complex endeavour
and for that reason we recommend downloading the CAD les off our Github repository if there are
sections you need clarication on. It can be sometimes be easier to follow along when you have the
whole assembly in front of you.

excellent resistance to both torque and
pull-out.
F623 BEARING
A ball bearing with a ange used in
various gantry locations.
SHIM
Not to be confused with stamped
washers. These are used in all M3 call-out

Blind Joints provide a cost effective and rigid assembly method.
The head of the BHCS is slid into the channel of another
extrusion and securely fastened through a small access hole in
the extrusion.

BALL-END DRIVER
Some parts of this design require the use of a
ball-end hex driver for assembly. We recommend
you get a 1.5mm, 2mm and 2.5mm one.
INTRODUCTION
2MM HEX DRIVER
The 2mm hex driver will see a lot of use in this
build. A quality driver is strongly recommended.
Refer to the sourcing guide for suggestions.
