Description

Replacement X-Axis belt tensioner designed for Voxelab Aquila printer. Designed to use mainly stock parts only. Fits into the end of the 2020 extrusion and secures with M5 pan head screws, two of which come with the stock tensioner. Pulley is the same as the stock one so you simply swap it into the new one. The flanged bearings are F634 bearings if you need replacements. They are held in by the same M4x18 flat head screw which the original uses.

You may have to use new M5 screws though. One M5x8 for the front side would be perfect. You can also use one longer than 20mm to go all the way through and secure it with a nut on the end. The included screws are slightly too long and run into each other in the middle, even with the stock tensioner.

Print all parts at the standard orientation. 
I used 0.2mm layer height
20% gyroid infill
3 walls

You can print them on a raft if you have issues with fitment.
