Tronxy X5S - Linear Guide Rails Conversion Kit

Last crawled date: 4 years, 3 months ago

Hi! This design is a work in progress, it has not yet been tested so test it and give me your feedback so I can improve it. Thanks :)
I had no time to buy what is needed for the upgrade because I came back home few days last year and I had to leave in early january without my 3D printer with me. btw this is the result, if someone would be like to be a tester for that, I am here fore many infos if needed :)
N.B. At the end of this text there is a changelog list
This system is designed to allow the separation and repositioning of the anterior X-Y Axis pulleys and to make the Tronxy X5S compatible with linear guide rails. Using this conversion kit, the realignment of X-Y Axis belts becomes possible. There are only PDF files (no STL) with drawings for the metal parts to machine.
Shurak's pulleys and Misha T's GT2 Belt Clips are used in this kit.
