By chance does anyone have 3D models of these linear rail and ball screw/ball nut/pillow block assemblies?
The place down the road from where I live has linear rail/ball screw kits that look like what you have in the photo. Here is the link: High-Torque...
Of course the bracing is important. Many designs have more than they really need but as long as it's static it doesn't really hurt anything. Note...
Here's the link to the other build: https://openbuilds.com/threads/https://openbuilds.com/threads/linear-rail-ox.1269/linear-rail-ox.1269/
When I worked for DMG MORI I assembled a few machines. On the DMU 50 machine made by DMG MORI the linear rails are facing up and there is only one...
I haven't seen a hobby machine in action before so I guess that's something i need to learn.
Can you tell me what you used of the machine controller enclosure? An old In the real world when you home ( G28 ) a machine you actually should...
So buffing the 15mm screws removed scratches enough to shorten them to 12mm? Or did you buff 3mm of material off of them to to get them down to...
Very nice build...but a few observations from being in the manufacturing and machine tool industry. In reality you only need one linear rail per...
I did get the micros witch limit switches...but the solution is simple...just don't let machine travel past its limits.
What are these in the photos?
I will wait. The sale only cuts the price by about $14 so if I need to I can get it later. I found another web site that sells it for $119...
On the side of the plate where the eccentric spacers go I feel its necessary to use a spacer/shim/washer because the hole is large and the locknut...
Assembling the X-axis wheel/plate assemblies I found that the 60mm screws that are specified are too short for the way the Blue Ox plates are...
I saw that...but just to make it easier for me to see I have been marking the flat with the '6mm' label with a Sharpie Marker as well. Thank you....
After posting I decided to remove the fixed row of wheels and i then oriented the eccentric spacers so they were both in the same direction with...
I am assembling the X-axis gantry plate/wheel assembly and I used the build guide along with the solidworks model to see how it's built. I have...
Upon reviewing the build guide for a Sphinx build I found that it calls out for 27mm screws which aren't available at OpenBuilds and thanks to...
I realized I was short on a few things so I put together another cart and went through the whole process of paying for my items and I got emails...
No matter how much you try to shield the mechanical parts of the machine from the machining area chips and contaminants still manage to invade the...
