Suitable 3018 PROVer 3018MX3 3018 PROVer V2 For beginner Pre-assembled and no fuss with assembly taking less than 15 minutes. Pre-assembled Taking less than 30 minutes to assemble. Upgrade The V2 is an upgraded version of one of our Desktop CNC Machines 3018PROVer Laser Module Available With laser module, provider the different ways to unleash your creativity. Auto Tool Zero Allowing you to easily change and calibrate your tools Improve accuracy Also increased the effective range of the Z Axis from 35mm to 40mm. Review: Reduces the X direction travel. - It gives a useful bit of Z axis range, but the trade off is reduced X axis range. Additionally I need to improvise a new mounting for one of the X axis limit switches. I installed this as part of an upgrade from a 3018 to a 3040, so it didn't matter too much. It's a better quality part than the original and it was easy to install. Maybe 3.5*. Review: Not compatible with prover 3018 v2 - It solidly made but is awful for the prover 3018 V2. It does not trigger the X limit switch so can't home. It also doesn't have space for the spindle nut so you lose about 25mm of x travel. It talks about greater z axis height which is sorely needed for the 3018 but the top of this assembly is at exactly the same height as the stock one so you can travel down further (which isn't required at all) but can't go higher. In fact, because of the way the assembly is built, you actually need to use thinner stock. All in all, a hard pass if you have a prover 3018 v2 ## Features - This Aluminum Z Axis Assembly with 52mm spindle mount supports you upgrade your CNC Machine with a more powerful 300-500W motor. It also comes with a 43mm motor mount for fitting the 775 Spindle. - The spindle mount is exchangeable. The compatible 65mm and 69mm spindle mount is available for ordering now, which supports adding the trimmer router. - It is compatible with Genmitsu 3018-PROVer V2/ 3018-PROVer/ 3018-PROVer Mach3/ 3018-MX3 CNC machine. There is a Z-axis rotary knob on its top. You can adjust the height of the Z-axis manually without power. - Compared with the V1 version, the V2 version has reduced the height of the spindle mount so that the effective range of the Z Axis is increase from 40mm to 56mm. - The spindle carriage is made of high-quality aluminum for better rigidity and durability. High strength and long service life. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BXRX85WM | | Best Sellers Rank | 829,119 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) 125 in Spinning | | Brand | Genmitsu | | Colour | Blue | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 43 Reviews | | Finish | Polished | | Finish type | Polished | | Manufacturer | Genmitsu | | Material | Aluminium | | Model Number | 056051628 | | Mounting Type | Top Mount | | Mounting type | Top Mount | | Part Number | 056051628 | | Set Name | Kit | | UPC | 816550026618 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Unit count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Colour:** Blue - **Brand:** Genmitsu - **Material:** Aluminium - **Finish type:** Powder Coated - **Unit count:** 1.0 count ## Images ![Upgraded Aluminum Z Axis Assembly - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71B6XE8xNJL.jpg) ![Upgraded Aluminum Z Axis Assembly - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7103HZKwHmL.jpg) ![Upgraded Aluminum Z Axis Assembly - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712Dh8j8WBL.jpg) ![Upgraded Aluminum Z Axis Assembly - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YTEYHDhCL.jpg) ![Upgraded Aluminum Z Axis Assembly - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61lt1bhXxSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ Reduces the X direction travel. *by G***F on 12 July 2025* It gives a useful bit of Z axis range, but the trade off is reduced X axis range.

Sadece Z ekseninde ters yönde hareket ediyordu, bu durumu makinenin ayarlarından yönünü değiştirerek düzelttim. Limit anahtarının kart bağlantısının ters olduğunu düşünüyorum ama kartın detaylı dökümanına bakmadığım için bu durum net değil. Onun dışında başka bir problem görünmüyor. Düzeltme: Limit anahtar bağlantısı doğru. Keşke Z eksenindekine benzer şekilde X ekseni için de limit anahtar bağlantısı taşıyıcı üzerinde yer alsaydı çok daha işlevsel bir ürün haline gelirdi. Bir başka önemli nokta; motor tutucu üzerinde lazer kafa bağlantısı da yapmak isterseniz 40x40'lık lazerler için uygun değil. Bu durumu bilmenizde fayda var. Bağlantı için 3D yazıcıda bir adaptör basmanız gerekiyor. ## Frequently Bought Together - Genmitsu Upgraded Aluminum Z Axis Assembly V2 Kit With Motor Mount for 775 and 300-500W Spindles, 43mm & 52mm Diameter Holder for 3018-PROVer Series CNC Machine - Genmitsu 65mm Diameter Aluminum CNC Spindle Holder Spindle Mount for 3018-PRO, 4040 Series, 3020-PRO MAX V2, 3018-PROVer V2 CNC Machine - Genmitsu 710W Compact Router 65mm Diameter, 6 Variable Speeds Palm Trimmer Router, with ER11 Collet & 4 Carbon Brushes, Spindle Motor Upgrade for CNC Machines --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/521447579-upgraded-aluminum-z-axis-assembly](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/521447579-upgraded-aluminum-z-axis-assembly) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-07-01*
