TronXY X5SA Front Corner Idler Mounts
Description
Just got a TronXY X5SA. The version I received seems to have a lot of the original kinks worked out however I wanted to still make some more improvements. There wasn't a whole lot uploaded that met my needs so I modified this great design to work for my application. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2815168 There is a left and right (as looking from the front of the printer). The right has a mount for the limit switch. The spacers sit only on the inner race of the bearings allowing better rotation of the bearing. I used hardware from the printer kit and two M5 nuts (not included in printer kit) to sit in the corner recess. I uploaded the parts individually as well as in a complete print. The left inner corner and right outer corner utilize the spacer below the idler pulley. Use 1 split washer (included in printer kit) underneath each pulley that does not utilize the spacer. The split washer is the perfect diameter to only put pressure on the inner race of the bearing allowing the outer to spin more freely. Big thanks to the original designer! I hope it is useful for others. I will upload pictures in a few days. I have made parts for a complete upgrade to the X5SA. I will have them all posted in a few days. These are the idler pulleys I am using. 4 x https://www.ebay.com/itm/5mm-Bore-20-T-6mm-Belt-Reprap-3D-Printer-GT2-Idler-Timing-Pulley-with-Bearing/183697144073?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
