This model can be used, if you only have longer than original length linear rods, or the lengths are not exact.
Remix of the X-Axis with belt tensioner by Boogie
Features
- Both Motor holder and idler holder come in two different variations with different amounts of additional length.
- Additional max length from 6mm to 19mm (use original motor holder for 6mm)
- Fine adjustment for length using m3 screws (can be locked with additional m3 nut)
- Optional holder for Z-Axis Endstop on top or bottom of the motor holder (18mm hole distance)
- Of course the belt tensioner and bearing mounts from the original model still work
Assembly and print settings
Choose the idler and motor end parts depending on how much longer your X-Axis rods are than the original (370mm).
E.g. for 380mm rods use the +6mm Motor end and +7mm idler end to get 383mm available length and some room for the adjustment using the screw.
Refer to the original guide by boogie for assembly instructions and needed hardware: https://www.printables.com/model/56241-x-axis-revision-with-belt-tensioner
I printed it from ABS, but PETG should also work.
Additional Hardware for length adjustment
- 2x M3 Hex nylock nuts
- 2x M3 screws (length based on what fits well, but roughly 10 mm to 20 mm will work
Additional Hardware for optional Z-axis endstop
- 1x M3 Hex nylock nut
- 2x 8mm M3 screws
