** new version is out!** https://www.printables.com/model/798714-automatic-chained-organizer

It's my first design so it have somes flaws. It can only turn well in one direction and some fits may be too tights for some printers. However, it's a fonctionnal print and only uses 4 skateboards bearings (8x22x7mm), no glue. It's stiff enough to be transported and i've made differents sizes to fit most shelfs or refrigerators. I also made a wheel version that's meant to use without any bearing. The fit is too tight for it to turn so it will create more friction for sure. Keep in mind that i only printed the 18 sauce version so the others are not tested, but the lenghts are carefully mesured. The wheel_no_bearing isn't tested as well, and is not recommended.

Bearings on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/SINYUM-608-2RS-Skateboard-Bearing-8x22x7/dp/B0771DLLR6/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=skateboard+bearing&qid=1706308944&sr=8-10

The 18 sauces version is 56 cm long, and the others are shortened by 2.9 cm for each sauce removed.

 Feel free to give any suggestions!

I printed mine using an elegoo Neptune 4, 220x220mm bed. 

I used PLA+, it's probably not necessary but I think it helps the caddy to be strong and flexible.

My settings were 0,28mm layer height, 5 floor, 5 top, 4 walls. With a 0.4 mm nozzle.

I used gyroid infill.

I only used support for the caddys and the wheels. 

I would also recommend sticking the print to the shelf with double sided tape, or else it will move when tuning the conveyor.

I added the step files for the 18 sauce version.

I modified the Wheel no bearing for looser fit and shorter shafts, they were too long.

I uploaded a new version of the Wheel_bearing with new extrusions to keep it centered between the carrousel top and bottom.
