Kinematics Knowledge
-
Since my new Corexy build is not yet finished and I was not satisfied with the Z axis setup I decided to go for a Kinematics setup with 3 x SFU1204 and an additional Hiwin rail. I'm wondering if someone knows a source of good informations about this topic? I'm not experienced with such a setup and just would like to do it right
First question for me is how to place the three axes. Easiest way for my build would be to place them as shown in option A) but I saw many setup with option B).
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Martin

@MartinNYHC A and B are functionally identical for the purposes of automatically aligning the different leadscrews.

That was my understanding. Anyway....some good lecture about this topic would be interesting for me. I don't like to build something which I don't understand

I found @mrehorstdmd's blog posts to be super interesting and useful on the subject!
There's also this really awesome three-level practical tutorial at https://pinshape.com/items/36874-3d-printed-an-introduction-to-kinematic-coupling on the fundamentals of kinematic couplings.

Hi !
When designing something It´s important to put things roughly together in the beginning. Only then You can see problems and overlappings. In this case maybe the two Y- step motors may be on the other side and the two Z axis screws on the other side to avoid collisions. You can even print a model in 1:10 scale to play with the blocks. -
Thanks guys. I'm curious about how it goes. Last parts arrive today so I think i have something to show at the weekend.
