Progress on Zoltrbot.....

 
 Some structural progress has been made
               over the last weeks ...
 
  

     and the basis X -axis is now working...
 
 
Not as fast as I was aiming at or hoping for,
but about 9-10 M/minute is no problem and very useable.
The accuracy with its reduction is more then sufficient.
Measuring with a digital caliper its repetition accuracy 
I get about 0,05mm or better.
Using a measuring clock should provide more
details on that lateron.
 
  Looking good sofar!
 
  Here a short video:
 
  
          Zoltrbot - testrun X Videolink ~3Mb
   The testcycle does contain 200mm lines - 10 M/minute
 
The Bridge -Y axis parts will be cut and buildup next.
As it has the same mechanism as X,
it will have a similar running behaviour.
 
Now figuring out the position & mount for the filament propulsion.
Best position would be on one end of the bridge
 
     
 
Sofar the journey into this 3d-printing adventure!
