Description
Y axis belt tensioning bracket to aid with installation of my dual Y motor mod.
Re-uses all the original hardware with the exception of 2 m3x30 bolts and 2 m3 nuts
For the belt clamp please visit https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4243512/files and grab file: 2_TensionerBlockV3.stl. This design only exists courtesy of kevinakasam, I would like to make sure he gets the credit due for the idea.
With this bracket, properly tensioned (much looser than I would have guessed it needed to be), along with the dual y mod, I was able to slowly crank the acceleration up to 50,000mm/s @300mm/s. Much simpler to tension than the standard zip-tie method. If you decide to try this out, PLEASE update me on any failures or room for improvement.
v2- seems successful. Got a 20k accel benchy done in roughly 26 minutes with a single layer shift.
