Dude, this is fricking genius. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of your sources.

Great! but I had to add a couple of limit switches

Like an electromechanic stop (only cable and switches) or some digital endstop?

I would prefer infrared sensor

Cool idea, massive thing it is! Possible improvement: two end position switches or a slip clutch to prevent the motor from spinning when it reached the end position

looking good! ;-)

Very cool thing! congrats!

Buen trabajo solo te falto la instalación de dos finales de carrera uno en cada lado para evitar que el motor rompa el sistema al llegar al final de su recorrido.

how to fix pulley that sways.?

What application u used for 3d printing?

Hi, wow it's a good project, and i have a questiion ... What is the max weigth can it lift?.

Considering the strength of the actuator would it be suitable for one of the axis of a 3d printer? Maybe using actuators like this could solve the problem of heavy extruder setups.

It might be possible when encoders are being used as possition feedback.

That's impressive! Do you really need the Arduino+driver to run this motor or just pluging it to DC power and reversing polarity is ok? It seems to me that's what you are doing at 3:14 but I just wanted to make sure! Thanks

What is the pulley's bore size? I bought a pulley online, but it doesnt fit to my 3.175mm dc motor shaft(rs550).

Hello Amirul, The pulley I use has a bore size of about 5.05mm. The diameter of the motor shaft is about 5mm. All info about the components used can be found on my hackaday page: hackaday.io/project/52706-3d-printable-linear-actuator

is there protection against twisting? or make limit switches

@BrianBrocken

What do you mean by twisting? and no, currently there are no limit switches installed but should be very easy to do so.

Good project

how many time to print?

Nice video. Well done. I would like to build something like this. Which motor I need to pick up in order to lift high weight. Let's say 40-50 kg

@BrianBrocken

Hello Blue Belt, as long as you have the right gear reduction you can almost use any motor. You can even use the same motor I used as long as you have the right reduction. Of course depending on your application the speed of the output shaft might be to low because of the large reduction. In this case you need to chose a bigger motor to be able to lift the same weight at higher speeds with a lower reduction.

@@BrianBrocken thanks for reply. i'll try to figure out

My metalical one can handle 80kg, so this should be able to pull at least 20kg

nice watcha gonna use it for?

The only thing that is bad is the belt size 260mm is kind off standard.. you can get 200mm everywhere and 280mm /400mm and so on :-( Ohter than that nice motor drive

What is the grid used for after printing and whats it called

It's called a cutting mat and is used clean up plastic parts, you can cut in this mat without demaging your blade. you can find one here: www.banggood.com/A1-A2-A3-PVC-Cutting-Mat-Cutting-Pad-Patchwork-Tools-Manual-DIY-Tool-Cutting-Board-Double-sided-p-1107228.html?p=E01411629100201406T1&custlinkid=1268258

Great But you shall add limit switches for safety Otherwise it will be broken.

I like your designs from thingiverse

Si le pones internamente un engranaje de de 3 etepas tipo planetario mueves 30kg a 100kg dependiendo del mallado interno de la pieza, los piñones tienen que ser de estrías dobles en forma de flecha.... Hay en la red de KZread que piñones que soportan hasta 1500kg moviendo un carro con piezas impresas...
