My first CoreXY!

Super nice, really good job on both design and fabrication.
-
Yes, that looks really good and I'd say from that print that there can't be much wrong with your configuration files. Post them anyway and we'll take a look.

Ian, what would be an optimal design? I'm making a similar machine and the z-axis is the same as this one.
Haven't cutted the aluminum parts yet, so there is time for me to change it.Delta guy here… a moving bed is unknown territory
The OP has a great design. I use the same concept with mine, so does Stratasys with the Fortus series. This printer looks well designed and quite tidy.
-
Your printer looks really professional! Great job.

Fair comment but I've been helping a couple of guys from a company that I met while at the TCT show. They had problems with the Z axis binding because they couldn't get all 4 vertical rods perfectly aligned. So IMO it's not the best design concept.

I see that you have your belts in the same plane; I use the same config. Could you make a closer picture of the part where they cross?
Thanks.

Hello handicraft friends!
This is a small bridge that prevents the two belts from touching and rubbing against each other. It is a very simple and effective solution. (If you want, I can send you the. stl file.)

I have as similar system, with a PTFE sheet between belts. I just wanted to compare, as yours is smaller.
Thanks for the picture!

Sounds like a problem with design rather than concept. If alignment difficulty is the problem I think we could agree getting two actuators parallel should be easier than three.
