Block Uniformity

  • Keep 2 block dimensions same for all blocks
  • Based on the conceptual design, 1 of the block dimensions will solely be used to fit the diameter of the leadscrews, precision shafts, and sleeve bearings.
  • The other block dimension to be uniform will mostly support the part by its length on precision shafts.
  • For accommodating leadscrew nuts up to 10mm or 3/8" dia, dimension 1 will be 40mm (approx. 1.5")
  • For accommodating stepper motor mounting and axis stability, dimension 2 will be 75mm (approx. 3")

Stepper Motor Mount Uniformity

  • Use the same stepper motor type for each axis.
  • Nema 17 steppers for appropriate performance characteristics.
  • Standard 31mm center-to-center mounting holes. Modular.

Sleeve Bearing Mount Uniformity

  • Use the same sleeve bearing type throughout machine
  • 2 fastening holes on the part to which sleeve bearing should be mounted. For sleeve bearing of 24mm diameter, mount circle with 10+15mm washers and 1mm clearance should be 24 + 10 + 2 = 36mm diameter.

X Blocks

  • The X major and minor blocks should have the same heights.
  • Base to shaft hole = 30mm
  • Base to stepper hole = 75mm
  • Base to top = 100mm

Y Blocks

  • The Y major and minor blocks should have the same heights.
  • Base to X shaft hole = 25mm
  • Base to Y lower shaft hole = 50mm
  • Base to X stepper hole = 70mm
  • Base to Y stepper hole = 95mm
  • Base to Y upper shaft hole = 140mm
  • Base to top = 150mm
