CamRider 2020

This is a camera slider centered around a 2020 aluminum profile (B- or V-Slot type). It keeps the timing belt and the endstop wiring securely inside the rail for an exceptionally clean setup. Six precision 608zz bearings form a strong double three-point grip around the rail, ensuring zero play in every movement. **VERSION HISTORY** **2019-06-22 Update 1** * New versions of the endcaps are designed specifically for idlers with 16T M3 or 20T M5 tooth counts. The 20T M5 version is particularly effective at resolving belt guide issues, as these idlers often feature larger side guides. * This upgrade also makes it possible to use this camera slider even if you have a stock of 20T M5 idlers and don't want to purchase 16T M3 specifically for this project. * Note that using 20T idlers may make the belt more prone to fluttering due to its greater distance from the inner surface of the 2020 profile. **2019-06-22 Initial Release** * The initial release includes endcaps designed exclusively for use with 16T M3 idlers. * However, it's worth noting that a belt guide issue can arise when using this camera slider with plain pinion motors. * This problem does not affect typical NEMA17 motors equipped with plain axles since these require separate pinions and usually come with built-in belt guides.
