Hello guys,

i’m trying to improve z-axis movement. Is there any modifyable stl or other file of the nut holder for up/down moves?
I want to elliminate the backlash in the z-axis by using a second nut and a spring between both nuts.

Regards,
Bexx

I suggest to read this post Z axis wobble

I dont know is this is a good solution with a spring to remove backslash, you may get a lot of friction and matrial wear. I also dindt see someone made this, you will probably have to design your own. Dont forget to report your experience :wink:

Thanks for the answer. I already read that thread. I’ll try to create it on my own - seems to be a small good project to learn modeling with CAD.
