The Ox-GEAR Mechanical Kit 500 x 750 mechanical kit is the foundation of your CNC Machine. A mechanical kit includes all the mechanical components needed to build your CNC Machine; All the screws, nuts, wheels, plates, washers, etc. A Mechanical Kit is undoubtedly a perfect choice if you plan on bringing your own CNC Controller, Stepper Motors, or other Electronics.CNC Add-Ons Packs are required to complete a CNC Machine. These Add-ons include the electronic system that will control the machine, cable management, and the tool that will be mounted to the machine. About the Ox-GEAR CNC The Ox-GEAR Mechanical Kit 500 x 750 is a Maker Store upgrade to our Ox CNC belt-driven design. This Ox-GEAR upgrades the Y-Axis featuring a stronger extrusion paired with the new gear rack and pinion transmission. This allows for the length of the machine to easily go up to 3 meters (or more!) with no more belt stretch! The Ox-GEAR uses gears and racks along the Y-Axis, belt-driven along the X-Axis, and lead screw for the Z-Axis. The Internal Gear Rack was designed by Maker Store Australia. Our Gear Racks are designed specifically to allow for continuous lengths by butt joining multiple racks in succession. With this feature, there is almost no limit to how long your axis can be! The Internal Gear Rack is designed to slide inside the channel of our V-Slot Linear Rail and works with all our different V-Slot profiles. Along the Y-Axis the Ox-GEAR benefits from the stronger C-Beam Extrusion, which also helps to keep the gear hidden away from dust. The motor is spring-loaded and mounted to keep the right amount of tension between the gear and the rack. Features: The Ox-GEAR Mechanical Kit 500 x 750 is incredibly simple to assemble and is suitable for milling wood, foam, plastic, soft metals, and more. The Ox-GEAR CNC Machine is a 4 axis (3 1) machine, this means there are 3 physical axes (X, Y, Z) and a slave axis of Y which is called the A Axis. Above All, the Ox CNC is our most customizable CNC machine and also, it can be supplied in almost any size imaginable. If the application requires a cutting area of larger than 1.5m the Ox is our solution. The Ox-GEAR has an accuracy from 0.25mm with 1/4 micro-stepping up to 0.1256mm with 1/8 micro-stepping. This is a perfect router for the hobby woodworker who wants to get into CNC woodworking. The Ox-GEAR is easily customized and adaptable, all parts of the machine are generic and modular encouraging additions and alterations after the initial mechanical build. Every Ox-GEAR is packed with off-the-shelf parts, every part available individually from Maker Store.       Module 1.0 Gear Accuracy table: Microstepping Gear Size 16 Teeth 20 Teeth 32 Teeth 40 Teeth FULL 0.25mm 0.31mm 0.50mm 0.63mm  1/2 0.13mm 0.16mm 0.25mm 0.31mm  1/4 0.06mm 0.08mm 0.13mm 0.16mm  1/8 0.03mm 0.04mm 0.06mm 0.08mm   1/16 0.02mm 0.02mm 0.03mm 0.04mm   1/32 0.01mm 0.01mm 0.02mm 0.02mm Dimension Details:  Travel (Cutting Area):    – X-Axis: 280mm    – Y-Axis: 525mm    – Z-Axis: 69mm (Reduced to 57mm with a 12mm Baseboard) Tools Required: 3mm Allen key Screwdriver 8mm spanner/wrench 10mm spanner/wrench Hacksaw (or other means to carefully cut the POM Rack) M5 Tap Wire cutters Compatible Material for Cutting/Milling: Aluminum Hard Wood Soft Wood Plexi Glass Delrin HDPE Foam Bill of Materials: Item Product SKU QTY NOTE 1 C-Beam 750MM LR-C-S-750 2 2 V-Slot 20 x 40mm 500mm LR-2040-S-500 3 3 V-Slot 20 x 40mm 1000mm Cut to 710mm LR-2040-S-1000 2 Cut to 710mm 4 V-Slot 20 x 60mm 500mm LR-2060-S-500 2 5 GT3 Timing Belt – By the METER BELT-GT3-1M 2 6 Module 1.0 Gear Rack – Internal GEAR-M1-INT-500-D 4 7 Plate OX Right Side PLATES-OX-SET-V04 1 8 Plate OX Internal 2 9 Plate Ox Left Side 1 10 Plate OX Front 1 11 Plate OX Back 1 12 Universal L Brackets – Double BRAC-L2 8 13 Tee Nut HARD-TNUT-M5 75 14 Metric Aluminum Spacers 6mm SHIM-SPAC-6MM 23 15 Metric Aluminum Spacers 9mm SHIM-SPAC-9MM 18 16 Rack Motor Mount Plate (OX) PLATE-MOTOR-RACK 2 17 Metric Aluminum Spacers 3mm SHIM-SPAC-3MM 8 18 Metric Aluminum Spacers 10mm SHIM-SPAC-10MM 2 19 Eccentric Spacer – 8mm Hex – 6mm Height SHIM-ECCENTRIC-8-6 19 20 Module 1.0 Pinion Gear 16T GEAR-M1-16T 2 21 Spring – 1.2 x 7.5 x 20mm HARD-SPRING-1.2X7.5×20 2 22 Universal L Brackets – Single BRAC-L1 4 23 Cast – 90 Degree Corner Bracket BRAC-90CAST 10 24 Spacer Block (V-Slot) PLATE-SPACER 2 25 8mm Acme Nut Block HARD-ACME-8-BLOCK 1 26 GT3 Aluminum Timing Pulley – 20 BELT-GT3-TP20 1 27 300mm 8mm Metric Lead Screw / ACME HARD-ACME-8-300 1 28 6.35mm x 8mm Flexible Coupling HARD-COUP-635X8 1 29 Metric Aluminum Spacer 40mm SHIM-SPAC-40MM 3 30 V-Slot 20 x 60mm 280mm LR-2060-S-280 1 31 Threaded Rod Plate – NEMA23 PLATE-ROD-NEMA23 2 32 Ball Bearing 688Z BEAR-688Z 2 33 8mm Lock Collar HARD-COLL-8MM 2 34 5 Hole 90 Degree Joining Plate PLATE-90-5 4 35 Nylon Insert Locknut HARD-NUT-LOCK-5MM 12 36 Precision Shim – 10x5x1mm SHIM-PREC-1051 11 37 Solid V Wheel WHEEL-SOLIDV-KIT 42 38 End Cap – 2020 BRAC-ENDCAP 8 39 End Cap – 2040 BRAC-ENDCAP-2040 10 40 Drop In Tee Nut HARD-TNUT-DROP-M5 2 41 8mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-8 68 42 10mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-10 30 43 12mm M5 Button Head Screws SCREWS-M5-BH-12 8 44 15mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-15 30 45 20mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-20 8 46 25mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-25 2 47 30mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-30 2 48 45mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-45 6 49 55mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-55 3 50 60mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-60 14 51 65mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-65 4 52 Three Hole Joining Plate PLATE-STRIP-3 4 Spindle Mount 53 Drop-In Tee Nut – M5 HARD-TNUT-DROP-M5 4 Spindle Mount 54 10mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-10 4 Spindle Mount 55 20mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-20 4 Spindle Mount 57 35mm M5 Low Profile Screws SCREWS-M5-LP-35 2 Spring-loaded  System 58 Sliding T-Nut M5 HARD-TNUT-SLIDING-M5 4 CREDITS/SOURCE: The Ox V3 plates were redesigned by Steven of Maker Store creating the OX V4 Plates. This design allowed for a gear rack and pinion transmission system on the Y-Axis. The Internal MOD 1.0 Gear Rack was designed by Steven of Maker Store. The first belt-driven Ox System was designed by the team at OpenBuilds USA. Maker Store is a proud registered distributor of the Open Source line of products based on the designs by OpenBuilds. Please note the Maker Store Ox is heavily customized and upgraded to the original design by OpenBuilds.
