Hi,\r\nA metric lead screw nut designed specifically for the 2040 extrusion is available here.\r\nIt can be mounted via M4 bolts, and a crucial M4 5.5mm brass insert must be bolted to the extrusion for proper installation.\r\n100 pieces of this item can be purchased from Aliexpress for $5.\r\nGiven that the extrusion holes have an ID of 5.5mm,\r\n\r\nWhy choose 2040 Bosch aluminum extrusion and Hiwin MGN12?\r\n\r\nThe real advantage lies in the fact that the bolts on the Hiwin carriage align perfectly with the 2040 channels, as shown in the picture.\r\nThis makes 50mm of 2040 extrusion an ideal universal carriage plate.\r\n\r\nWhy use TR10x2mm?\r\nBecause it's perfectly suited for very long axis foam cutters.\r\nIt can handle lengths up to 3m without any issues, making setup easier and more precise than using 3-meter-long belts.\r\nAdditionally, it provides the required resolution, which is a must-have for this type of application.\r\nOf course, on a 2600mm long axis, with a maximum speed of 500mm/min before whipping, this combo will work just fine.\r\nThis setup could also be used to form simple CNC axes.
