Lifting Z is a good stiff design.
But having the X and Y down the bottom is weird.
You have 4 rails on the X axis - this is a lot of added expense, but worse will be the difficulty of aligning 4 rails.
The X axis should travel across the lifting Z beam.
Down the bottom should just be one axis, the Y axis (moving forwards and backwards under the Z beam)
