Tronxy X5SA Pro strong front pulley support and guard

This is a remix of a front pulley top-support and a simple pulley guard! More stiffness in the belt system.

The remix of both ideas serves the following goals:

  • Having a strong pulley mount that supports the top of the pulley bolt
  • Maintaining the original metal plate, so there won't be changes in the geometry
  • Reducing the risk to pinch your fingers/hair/etc. in the front pulleys

I printend mine in PETG with 5 perimeters and 60% infill, wich is overkill i guess. A test model worked without any bending with 3 perimeters and 20% infill..

The installations needs some time and patience.

You will need some M4 bolts, wich shouldnt be a problem if you bought your X5SA Pro new (mine came with about 100 extra bolts, nuts and washers in many different sizes).

The shims close the 2mm gap between the frame and the metal plate, so you can finally tighten down the screw in the guide rail. 

Luckily the long bolt for the pulleys is long enough and does not need replacement. 

I'd be very happy about some makes and comments! :)
