Description

I designed this system as an upgrade to the 3DMS Scalar model, applicable to all Scalar models, with the intention of lateral cantilever load abatement I have been experiencing with linear bearings, and to greatly reduce the operational noise floor of the machine. I will be using this in conjunction with a trapezoidal lead screw (with a planetary transmission). This system can be used on other models using 8-10mm rods, but different Delrin V-groove runners will need to be used if you wish to retain the vertical orientation.

These are designed to used 25mm OD Delrin V-groove surround, with a guide rod preload of less than 0.5mm if the bottom bearing screw is removed (as pictured), or up to 2.5mm preload with the screw installed at varying tightness.

Enjoy, please observe the creative common licensing specified.
