Triple LM6UU bearing extruder mount for Emaker Huxley

thingiverse

This modified Emaker Huxley extruder mount/X axis carriage utilizes three LM6UU linear bearings instead of two stock ones for reduced slop. JM's new belt tensioning system on the X axis is also required. Acquire thing 14048 for the linear bearing ends. Position two bearings in the bottom cavity and one in the top cavity. Supergluing the bearings might be needed after assembling and testing the axis. The design ensures a snug fit, but superglue may still be skipped. This upgrade enhances smoothness and eliminates shake; however, trimming 5 belt pitches is necessary. A flat blade screwdriver helps with belt installation. When attaching the second belt end, ensure proper Z shaft spacing first. Adjust motor position for belt alignment, loosen screws, slide carriage for smooth operation, and tighten the screws in order. Double-check the smoothness before finalizing the tension. The belt can be removed if needed without glue.
