C-Beam XL 1000 Actuator Kit

These high precision linear rails are based on the open-source C-Beam Linear Rail by Openbuilds.

The C shaped profile is based on the V-Slot linear guide system. This profile gives added strength and functionality. It is considered to be a 40mm x 80mm profile and all our standard V-Slot parts and accessories are compatible.

Available in 250mm, 500mm, 750mm, 1000mm, 1500mm lengths.

Please call or email us to order 2400mm lengths.

This precision trapezoidal(metric) lead screw's pitch and diameter are a perfect combination of high torque and speed.  This screw fits the bill for most machine designs and has become a standard on Maker Store.

The 8mm Acme Anti-Backlash Nut Block is a great choice for many projects requiring lead screw linear motion.

The pitch and diameter are a perfect combination of high torque and speed. This screw is suitable for most machine designs and has quickly become a standard for builders and makers.

These 688z ball bearings can be used with the Threaded Rod Plate. They are awesome and super affordable!  Grab a bunch today.

Eccentric Spacers are the perfect solution for adjusting your V Wheels onto V-Slot.

The C-Beam End Mount Plates are high quality aluminum plates with multiple taps and recessing to ensure easy assembly of the C-Beam Linear Actuator.

This high quality aluminum flexible coupling can be used to connect your NEMA23 stepper motor to your lead screw.  The flexibility will help with any misalignment there might be between the shafts.

These are awesome, high quality, custom made aluminum spacers.  They are great at making sturdy standoffs/spacings for your projects.

These Metric version of the spacer is 10mm OD which makes a very stable platform.

The spacer has M5 ID to give a thicker wall to keep the screw snug and centered.

The Low Profile Screws are a great choice for any project!  Compared to most screws, they are ultra low profile.  This means plenty of clearance.  The low profile head will not get in the way when building.

Chrome Steel Lock Nuts provide strength, a Nylon insert prevents the Nut from loosening over time or with vibration.

For your convenience these are sold individually, so add as many as you need.

The Solid V Wheel is a strong wheel that resists deflection due to its solid nature.

This wheel style was produced for two reasons. First is for builds where heavier loads are required and less compression in the delrin is desired. Many of these wheels could be added to a gantry to allow an even distribution of the load across them. Second is for improved performance of the belt and pinion system to give the belt a flat surface to ride on.

Designed for use with the C-Beam shaped linear rail using our Mini V-Wheels. It is an extremely strong gantry for your builds!

Our F8-16M Thrust Bearings including two washers and a cage, the washers use high hardness chrome steel which can bear a large load. These are great bearings and can be used in our Actuator Kits and C-Beam Kits.

The Lead Screw tensioning tool allows you to easily put your lead screw in tension. This tool reduces lead screw whip, which is common in lead screws with lengths greater than 1000mm, and ensures that your machine is running smoothly.

With an approx 1500mm/60in lead screw place under tension speeds of 6000mm/min can be achieved.
