In this video we show you what you need to know about V-Slot Gantry Plates from Openbuilds. We stock a range of gantry plates that can be used in multiple applications, and are compatible with V-Slot, C-Beam, and Openrail extrusion. The gantry plates, in conjunction with aluminium extrusion, can be used to make simple linear actuator systems. The gantrys plates used in this video are genuine from Openbuilds.

Is there a mount that rotates the wheels 90 degree relative to the gantry plate? Thinking about compressive loading vs lateral loading.

Question: Will the 20-80 normal v-slot gantry be strong enough to mount a CNC (for wood) router to? Or is it really advisable to go for the bigger c-beam one? I would mount it to a 20x80 c-beam.

Ideally use the C-Beam XL Gantry Plate. However the V-Slot one would be ok also.

Hi there. Very nice explainations thanks... I have just a wonder with wheels... What is the difference between black and white wheels and why to choose one over one other?

@ooznest 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Sylvain, the black wheels are Delrin Dual V Wheels and the white are Solid V Wheel Xtremes - the difference is that the Xtremes are able to take more load than the Delrin as they are slightly stronger

@@ooznest thx a lot for answer ! So I guess black ones are good for a 15w diode laser engraver v)

Not really 3D printing related but do you think these style of bearings (v slot) would work well for solar panel installations on a roof rack? I’d like to slide about a 40lbs panel on one or two of these gantries.

Hi, Thanks for your comment. Really hard to say really, it would depend on your design.

Kind of dumb question, but can this be installed with the gantry plate facing down? For example, everything you're demonstrating turned over? I wanted to mount a light to the plate, with the V Slot mounted to the ceiling.

Yes, that can be done!

do the V slots or the wheels wear out after continuous usage?? What is the difference between using a linear slider and carriage, apart from cost?? I am looking for use in an industrial application, the gantry will be in motion 24x7, moving back and forth. We use a linear slider and carriage now, I was hoping to reduce cost and use the V slot and gantry instead

Hi, if there is no debris and the wheels are set correctly, there would be minimal wear. Linear guides are better, than wheels and extrusion, but all done to cost :) We use wheels and extrusion on our CNC Machines, and get 0.1mm accuracy.
