Railsupport for Boxer2000

thingiverse

My girlfriend and I live separated, and I gave her an automatic gate opener for Christmas. The thought behind was, that she wouldn't get wet, when she came home from work. And okay, it was cheap. I got inspired by the Rail support for Hörmann Liftronic 500 (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5474401) made by tcroonen. So, after printing the one from tcroonen, I found out that it didn't fit the rail on the Boxer 2000, which was the one I bought for my girlfriend. The rail from Hörmann have a dimension of 51 x 30 mm. And tcroonen had made it with an adjustable distance to the ceiling from 25 to 61 mm. And It didn't fit the condition with my girlfriend garage. Neither the dimension of the size of the rail, nor the distance to the ceiling. So, thanks to Fusion360, I made one that fits. This one is for the rail for the gate opener named Boxer 2000 (or 1st Avenue), and in Denmark it is sold by ex. Jem & Fix, Harald Nyborg, Bygma and other hardware stores. It is designed for a rail size of 77 x 37 mm, and a have an adjustable distance to the ceiling from 52 to 92 mm. So if you mount the supports where the part from the assembly of the rail is, it fits just fine. Like the "original" it is held together by 4 pcs 2.5 x 20 woodscrew around the rail. For holding the adjustment to the ceiling, you'll need 2 pcs M6 x 16, 2 pcs washers, and 2 pcs M6 nuts. The 4 woodscrews isn't absolutely necessary, and you might have to drill up the holes and the countersunk to make it fit 100% to the screws you have. Please, see the pictures for assembly. This is my first posting; I hope others will benefit from it. You'll need: 1 pcs - Part-1 1 pcs - Part-2 2 pcs - Part-3 2 pcs - Part-4 If you place the parts close to each other on the bed, all parts can be printed in one go. For assembly, see the "original" rail from tcroonen. A tip is to make the assembly first, and make sure all parts fits. It makes it easier in the garage later. Cura said 7 hours and 52 min., so a days work for me. Or actually 2, for I made 2 sets. It needs 48 g or 16.23 meters of filament, according to Cura. Happy printing!
