Thanks Allistar, I didn't see your post at first because Peter was so quick behind you! :) Where do you see the mechanical binding on your...
Allistar, I'm curious the significance of determining the "max speed" on the axes? Do you normally run jobs at these kinds of speeds, or is this...
Hello Again! OK, here is the rest.... This file includes both the X-Gantry assembly and the X-Z Carriage assembly in place. A few things to note:...
Bee, (and everyone else!!) Here is a 3D PDF of the re-imagined X-Z Carriage Assembly. Still working on the rest of the frame structure, but...
We've been working on it steadily the last couple days (since my initial post about rotating the Axis). I'm pretty close now to having an assembly...
Thanks Bee! This was our intuition based on the overall design... Let's see if we can make some improvements! That's the whole point of this...
Thanks for your thoughts Allistar, a couple points/notes to your comments.... We're working on a tweak of the Z-Axis, and rotating the X-Axis in...
Really? There is potentially quite a bit of force on the cutter when it's working. It's the deflection caused while work is being done, not...
Hello Again Community! A follow up to the last question we posed... Has anyone looked into rotating the X-Axis C-beam by 90-Degrees? This would...
Hi Alex, thanks for your reply. Yes, our objective with the height is that we have to drill some holes onto material ~75mm, so need the height,...
Hi there Alex, I'm guessing you are located in the UK from the chatter. Just curious if you had some success with your Y End Plates. I'm tweaking...
Hi Folks, just getting started building a modified version of the LEAD 1010. Been working in CAD so far to tune things in to the dims required for...
Thanks, yep started here. Having to add parts and remake all the assemblies since, as was pointed out, this is a "legacy" collection. So far,...
Perhaps! But that in comparison to the tankline connections of the gantry to the uprights, and still concerns of twisting there? Certainly, have...
Would be nice to have a solid model library like the Solidworks one. Sketchup is a walled garden, and really not the right kinda tool for this...
If one were to go with the larger height, then perhaps one approaches the same concerns? But OK... Just trying to find ways to keep things...
Hello Folks, another question.. Why does the Z-Axis have a different anti-backlash assy than the other two axes?
Hello Folks, one other question for the community... Is there a STEP or non-sketchup version of the CAD Assembly for the Lead 1010? We'd like to...
Hello Folks, considering a purchase of a 1010, a couple Q's hopefully someone can chime in on... 1. We'll need to cut slots in aluminum plate....
