Infill 3D Delta Bot Magnetic Carrier

thingiverse

This is the Magnetic Carrier for the "Infill 3D Delta" (I3D²), still waiting for some parts to test it with the effector I posted yesterday plus I am undecided on the size of the carbon fiber rods, might do them a bit thicker 8mm instead of 6mm, anyone out there that has tried both? When complete the I3D² is going to be a mod of the Kossel bot hence it uses steel rail and carriages HIWIN MGN-12H. Unlike the Kossel that tensions the belts through screws at the top of the frame the I3D² will tensions the belts at the carriage with an insert. I am thinking of making another version that won't use HIWIN MGN-12H, instead is going to be something similar to this carrier but it will attach to a printed linear bearing that runs directly on the aluminum extrusion with Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) pads, but that is another story. It uses the same magnets as the effector and has holes behind the magnets for M4 set screws to augment the power of the magnet (just adjust them close but not touching the ball-bearings it should add to the magnetic force considerably) same as the effector. I am listing the tensioning screw as a M3x40 but I am just approximating since I do not know how much stretch there is going to be with long belts, a shorter screw might be enough. As always the latest version of this part is going to live at https://infill3d.com/20-downloads Instructions -2x Countersunk Magnets 15mm X 5mm -2X M4x5 Set Screws -4x M3x16 -1x M3x40 -1x M3 Hex nut
