The WorkBee Belt Tensioner Set of 5 steel is a product that can help you maintain and optimize your WorkBee CNC machine. The belt tensioner set consists of five steel parts, one for each axis of your WorkBee CNC machine. Each steel part has two slots for the belt and a hole for a M5 bolt. The steel part is attached to the end plate of the axis with a M5 bolt and a T-nut. The belt is wrapped around the slots and secured with a cable tie. The M5 bolt is used to pull the steel part against the end plate and tension the belt. The tension can be adjusted by loosening or tightening the M5 bolt.
The belt tensioner set can provide several benefits for your WorkBee CNC machine. It can prevent the belt from slipping or sagging, which can cause inaccurate movements or lost steps. It can also reduce the belt whip, which is the vibration of the belt at high speeds. The belt whip can cause noise, wear, and heat, and affect the quality of your cuts. By using the belt tensioner set, you can improve the performance and accuracy of your WorkBee CNC machine.
