Description

This is a simple belt driven XY plotter. It can move relatively fast, 300-400 IPM (130-170 mm/s).

  • Axis travel: X17" / Y11".
  • Assembly time: approx 2-3 hrs.
  • Accuracy: ~1/32"

Issues

  • Some accuracy issues due to backlash in jaw motor coupling. Should be better with Oldham coupling.
