The camera slider is available in different lengths. They are identical except for the MakerSlide and the belt. The travel is about 175 mm less than the length of the rail, but see note below.

1 m Version

This is the list of parts for the camera slider, in the one metre length.

Count Part Number Part Description Material Notes
Custom laser-cut parts
1 EM-LCP Standard MakerSlide carriage plate 4mm aluminium
1 EM-LMB Motor bracket 4mm aluminium
2 EM-LBB Belt anchor, buckle type 1.5mm stainless steel

2 EM-MES Eccentric spacer stainless steel
4 EM-MW1 V-wheel sleeve machined acetal
2 EM-MW2 Smooth idler wheel sleeve machined acetal
1 EM-P2-20-5 20-tooth GT2 pulley 5mm bore aluminium
1 EM-B2-1100 1100mm 6mm GT2 belt neoprene, glass fiber, nylon 6mm or 6.35mm depending on availability
6 EM-W5Pa 5mm precision washer stainless steel
12 EM-G5 5 x 16 x 5mm bearing chrome steel
Spacers
2 EM-D5-04a M5 6.35mm spacer (thick) nylon
Fasteners

4 EM-S3-8 M3 8mm cap screw stainless steel
8 EM-N5 M5 hex nut stainless steel
2 EM-N5TI M5 T-slot insertion nut steel
28 EM-W5 M5 washer (form A) stainless steel
2 EM-W5C M5 washer (form C) stainless steel
2 EM-S5-8B M5 8mm button head screw stainless steel See note 1 below
2 EM-S5-10 M5 10mm cap screw stainless steel See note 1 below
2 EM-S5-14 M5 14mm cap screw stainless steel
6 EM-S5-30 M5 30mm cap screw stainless steel

Note 1: Either the 8 mm button head or the 10 mm cap screw can be used to hold the belt anchor. The head of the 10 mm cap screw, used with three washers, also serves as an end stop. It stops the carriage just short of the end of the rail. If you need the extra few millimeters of travel, use the 8 mm long screw with a single washer, which clears the carriage and allows it to travel about 145 mm less than the length of the rail (855 mm instead of 825 mm). Without stops, however, you have to be careful not to run the carriage off the rail, to avoid damaging the V-wheels.
