ANET A8 - TENSOR Y by C_BARDON

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

Based on the design of YoshiCat (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2024293), I have updated this swivel or pivot tensor, I have tried to compact it, removing the screw tensor in the top, and using the 2 of the 6 holes on the front panel to implement the tighten function.
It is true that this type of tensor, the pivot tensor, doesn`t have a long travel, which is around 5-8mm, but in my opinion it is enough to achieve a properly belt tension.
This tensor is compatible with the front frame brace (front stiffener) designed by Puddlefist (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2397219)
COTS:
4 x M3 screws L:20mm with flat head
2 x M3 screws L:40mm with flat head
2 x M3 screws L:20mm hex socket cap
4 x M3 nuts (DIN 934)
4 x M3 nuts with nylon lock (selflocking)
I have reused the original anet bearing f623zz.
