Introduction
The Roboro is a CoreXY kinematics printer. It uses Openbuilds V-Slot as the main component with custom made brackets that allow interfacing with the Openbuilds V wheels. The main design considerations were the 300x300mm print area, height is only a factor of vertical extrusion, smooth rod and threaded rod length. Many components are symmetrical to lower build complexity and have been designed to utilize the extrusion profile as efficiently as possible.
The X-Y drive uses 6mm GT2 belts with 30t pulleys on the motors, all idlers are currently 608 bearings. I am investigating the use of crowned bearing covers to use with 688 bearings. SDP-SI Synchromesh is also being investigated as a possible replacment that would allow easier placment in the extrusion. All idler/drive (top of stepper shaft is supported by MR105 bearing) locations are fully supported to allow adequate tensioning without altering belt direction/travel.
The Roboro is still in early developement with prototyping to begin 1/15/2014.
