I was truly impressed with the combined belt housings used to drive the ballscrews, along with other great features in this German BF-20 CNC conversion.
Nice clean install, well protected from flying chips...
Plates on the right are pocketed for the reduction timing belt. Plates on the left mount on the machine...
Stepper power connection...
Another view of the guts...
Manipulating the belt onto the big timing gear is going to be a little bit finicky, but not too bad...
Neat little Hall Effect (proximity switch) limit switches...
