@Phaedrux ok I will try in the meantime I disassembled the x axis turned the bearings
"just to give it a try while I was waiting for some advice from you" and now I've reassembled it and put it back to making a cold mesh to see if anything has changed, then I'll try to print to see if the mesh works or not, tomorrow I will post the results with and without mesh, for the moment thanks @Phaedrux. -
@Phaedrux looking at the graphic mesh and checking the coordinates of X which are spaced by 20mm, in 60mm the wheel should make a full turn, I did a free test: I lowered the probe stem I raised the Z axis until it touches the flat, at this point I moved the X axis by 60mm and about 30mm it raised and then lowered in the remaining 30mm, you know you were right the bearings are gone
-
have you decided what to do about it?
new bearings or linear rail conversion? -
@Veti think about changing bearings? some idea?
-
@Veti converting it would cost me time would i have to create the pieces and have them made
-
@Leblond
depends on where you live
A good place to start are the original openparts store
https://openbuildspartstore.com/metal-v-wheel-kit/
https://openbuildspartstore.com/ball-bearing-625-2rs-5x16x5/
(check that the size is the same as yours)alternative these are recommended for the voron 2 printer and are supposed to be high quality
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32991204773.htmllook for high quality bearings ABEC-7 or above ( ABEC-9)

@Veti I live in Italy, ok I look at it thanks

the parts you can print yourself.
eg (there are many others for the troxy)
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3855641the rails would need to be ordered
-
@Veti forgive me but it's not for the printer I have, my printer is a tronxy but the X5SA Pro
-
@Leblond the one you mention is the X5S
-
o god. the x5s pro is even worse than the original one.
and those wheels dont seem like the openbuilds ones.
what bearings do they have?
-
@Veti
I assure you that you are wrong, the bearings are "u" groove, I have to disassemble them to see their dimensions
