Another camera slider

thingiverse

This is a motor-driven controllable slider for DSLR, action cams and other cameras with similar dimensions and weight. All electronic parts kit (and Arduino program) is the same as this one - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1622033. Update 09/13/18: Added two more versions of motor and rods mounting with stand for end-switches. Also added new case model. Now you can find step-by-step guide for the assembly of this slider on this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlTO69apYLA&t=1s. Video is in Russian, but you still can understand the process =). There are two options for motor and rods mounting - with 10mm (ver1) and 30-35mm (ver2) deep holes. I chose the first option because I have short rods (470mm), and I wanted carriage travel to be as much as it can be. If you have long rods or you want to make the whole assembly more rigid then you can choose second option. Besides printed components, you will need the following items: PCB board (50x70 mm) Arduino nano with mini USB Digital encoder (ky-040) 7-segment display (TM1637 LED display) Stepper driver board (A3967 EasyDriver Stepper Motor Driver) On/off switch (optional) 2 end-switches Nema 17 Stepper Motor 30x30mm Fan (12V) Two 8mm Steel Rods Four linear bearings LM8UU (or four printed bushings) Two radial bearings 605 zz (5x14x5) Two aluminum pulley wheels 2GT Belt 2GT-6 (about 2m length) One 5x30mm steel shaft Two screws M3x16 One screw M3x25 Three nut M3 Four screw M3x8 One nut M4 and screw M4x25 And several self-tapping screws M2 or M3 for mounting end switches and box cover.
