Main components

Sketch

This (bad) sketch shows one end of the slider from the top. The two lengths of 2020 extend to the left, the motor is mounted on the right with a right angle bracket which is fixed to the front plate of the motor, and to the central holes in each of the aluminium rails.

Main Components

The project can be split into a number of components. I’ll address each on their own page:

• Aluminium extrusion rails
• Stepper motor
• Motor driver board
• Microcontroller board
• Power supply
• Gantry for camera
• Endstops
• User controls, brackets, feet, fixings and everything else
