HULA v1.0 for VORON Printers

(IMPORTANT)

- Please download the User Guide for HULA v1.0.

- I do my best to double-check and test the print profile I create. They are up to date with whatever changes I made to the designs.

- if you want to purchase a hardware kit for HULA please check the Vendor in Your Region listing.

- Bearing washers have to be installed with the smooth side facing the bearings.

UPDATE: 10 Jan 2026

This clarification is necessary to address ongoing misinformation.

I am not associated with Triangle-Lab (also known as D-Force), FYSETC, Toaiot, or any AliExpress stores. There is no collaboration, partnership, or endorsement of any kind with any of these parties. I do not host files for any third-party hardware kits or remixes on this project page, and any instructions directing users here to obtain such files are incorrect and unauthorised. The only official vendors authorised for the HULA project are:

- VoxelPLA (USA)

- VTC3D (EU)

- JC-3D & i3dprint (Australia)

UPDATE: 10 Aug 2024

I have been gathering valuable feedback from users since the launch of HULA RC2. HULA v1.0 is the result of incorporating some of these suggestions to improve the design.

- HULA petg parts are now easier to print and assemble.

- The TPU dampener design is improved for more linear dampening and is easier to print with less stringing.

- Cleaned up 3mf project files and updated the user guide.

I hope this will improve the user's experience of making HULA.

If you wish to buy Ready-to-Use HULA feet or HULA Hardware Kit, I have partnered with regional vendors to offer them at an affordable price. I believe in buying locally and supporting local businesses. See below for the authorised vendors' list.

NOTE

As I do not own a Voron Switchwire, the HULA for Voron Switchwire has not been properly tested. Weight distribution over the 4 feet may not be balanced and this may lead to a load-balance issue. Anyone using the Switchwire and keen to test the HULA, should monitor the set-up and performance. Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.

INTRODUCTION

Most 3D printers use rubber feet designed to absorb motors and engine vibrations. It does not do a good job of absorbing the force caused by the directional changes of the toolhead. I drew inspiration from seismic base isolators used to earthquake-proof building structures and designed HULA.

What is HULA?

HULA is an Omnidirectional Self-Aligning Anti-Vibration Foot specifically designed to dampen movement vibration generated by fast 3D printers. It decouples the printer from the table and dampens the horizontal XY forces of corexy & cartesian printers, preventing the printer from swaying/wobbling. This reduces the stress on the printer frame, improves print quality and reduces the shake translated to the table and other printers.

HULA for Voron is designed with the same principles in mind. The HULA centre core (designed for the Creality K1) is fitted with specific feet adaptors for the various Voron printers.
