Right lads,
So I've done a quick re-design of the entire Z-axis based on your feedback, re-using the existing motion components (which is handy, don't need to change my quote).
Travel is still 165mm, but I've actually managed to reduce the overall dimensions by 9mm in depth and 11mm in height with this re-design.
Before I spend too much time fleshing out the details any thoughts?
Z-Axis carriage - using 20mm plate as the back piece, 16mm plate to space out the carriages (plus 16mm top and bottom):
Central travel position with Rails/Face plate (20mm) and tramming plate (15mm):
Bottom travel:
Top Travel:
View of rails at bottom position:
