Frame Assembly - Pre Insert the right t-nuts to the right spot

Post by MirageC »

I did this mapping a while back before the forum was created. I think the right place for this info is here:


Hardware Map 3D View <-- click
This MAP will show where to pre-load the various types of T-Nuts and L-Nuts when building your frame
FrameHardware.png


Purple = M3 X 3030profile T-Nut (Hard to find)
Qty XY: 16 based on X&Y Print size at 315. Add Qty2 for every additional 5cm(50mm) of Y axis over 315mm.
Qty ZR_V2 : 24 based on Z Print size of 340. Add Qty3 for every additional 5cm(50mm) of Z axis over 340mm.

Green = M6 X 3030profile T-Nut.
Advice: You should get some that are drop in or roll in. This helps a lot when some were forgotten to be inserted before putting frame parts together.
Qty Frame = 104
Qty XY & XYHT = 27
Qty ZR_V2 = 15

Blue = M5 X 3030profile T-Nut
Advice: You should get some that are drop in or roll in. This helps a lot when some were forgotten to be inserted before putting frame parts together.
Qty XY & XYHT = 6
Qty ZR = 6

Yellow = L-Nut for 3030profile
Advice: You should get the model that has one longer side than the other. this will facilitate clearance into tight spot around Y axis rails:
Qty Frame = 26

I am sad to see that this caused delay in your build. I genuinely thought I corrected that omission some time ago.... twice actually...
Once again I am deeply sorry for that mistake. I do have a good qty on hand. Perhaps I could sell you some. Maybe shipping time could be better from Canada to Bresil than from China....

All Bom files have been corrected. One additional line has been added for M3 T-Nuts for 3030 profiles for the Y axis of STD and HT versions.

Hi,

[EDIT]

OK, I've been poking around and see another had the same problem I did. It looks like I will just need to grind 1 bracket down. Omit one (but there is a corner bracket right underneath, so that's OK) and the others fit. So I think I'm good

Is this correct?

[END EDIT]

I'm really stuck here. My inside L brackets won't fit in 2 places.

First in the place I mentioned in my earlier post: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=433

I managed to work around it putting a bracket underneath.

But I'm having problems with the front right corner of the Y Axis. It seems like you really need to have the inside corner, but it's too tall and interferes with the 3030 T Slot nut. And in checking the CAD drawing, it does show it interfering.

I'm sure there's a work around, but it's not obvious to me. It doesn't seem practical to put underneath, as the Z Axis 3030 would need to come out.

See attached pictures from CAD

Help?

Thanks.

Michael

Sympa le guide mais sur le plan de montage jpg il manque 2 Tnut 6 30 de chaque côté pour les supports moteur zr.

Cool this guide but you miss 2 T nut on each side for the zr motor mount 🙂

Hi Guys, I need some advice. How many T-nuts you would recommend to use for tightening the Guide Rails XY?
