Rotating Ballnut - design ideas

[mutzy]

Thanks Magicniner, maybe you can give some names/part numbers and some places where to get these types of ball screw adapters. I'm going for the rotating ballnut myself.

Thanks Neale, It's awesome to have so many smart people to help us little brains get through the learning process.

Cheers to all.

It took me a while to find this but I knew I'd seen it somewhere

And there's this, a more technical but more expensive system

I'm sure there are other ways to skin this particular cat but these are the only two I've come across so far ;-)

Here's a vid of an Igus solution for supporting long screws - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Duq163m59TU

And I'm struggling to find a video of the system magicniner mentioned, but I'm sure I've seen one at some point.

I have thought about that, especially on a slower machine like my new foam cutter. But anyway one will have to spin 3m 16xx screw at least. Which is way heavier than spinning a nut.
