Question: Have you thought about making some allowances for adjustment in the lower gantry carrier rollers in case you get some wear on aluminum and a little slop is introduced?
A Pic to help answer a question.
As the aluminum track wear’s, the roller bearings will need to be adjusted.
As I tried to explain in pic 20 but didn’t do a very good job the bottom bearing bolt hole is slotted for up and down movement, a bolt and spring are inserted from the bottom to add a fair amount of pressure to seat the bottom bearing to the track, then the bearing nut is tightened.
When the track starts to wear a quick loosen of the bearing nut and the spring will push the bearing tight up against the track again and then just re-tighten the bearing bolt again.
Hope that makes sense. lol
