LM13UU 13mm Linear Motion Bearing for 3D PrinterOverviewThe LM13UU 13mm Linear Motion Bearing is a high-precision linear bearing designed for 3D printers and other applications requiring smooth and accurate linear movement. This bearing features a compact design, low friction, and high load-carrying capacity, making it an ideal choice for 3D printing, CNC machines, and robotics.Technical SpecificationsOuter Diameter: 13mm
Inner Diameter: 10mm
Length: 30mm
Dynamic Load Rating: 10N
Static Load Rating: 20N
Material: High-carbon steel and POM (Polyoxymethylene)PINOUT and DimensionsThe LM13UU bearing has a simple design with no electronic connections. It is a purely mechanical component.Code Examples### Example 1: 3D Printer Linear Motion System using ArduinoIn this example, we will demonstrate how to use the LM13UU bearing in a simple 3D printer linear motion system using an Arduino board.```c
const int stepperPin = 2; // Stepper motor pin
const int dirPin = 3; // Direction pin
const int enablePin = 4; // Enable pinvoid setup() {
pinMode(stepperPin, OUTPUT);
pinMode(dirPin, OUTPUT);
pinMode(enablePin, OUTPUT);
}void loop() {
// Move the linear motion system 10mm forward
digitalWrite(dirPin, HIGH);
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
digitalWrite(stepperPin, HIGH);
delay(1);
digitalWrite(stepperPin, LOW);
delay(1);
}
// Move the linear motion system 10mm backward
digitalWrite(dirPin, LOW);
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
digitalWrite(stepperPin, HIGH);
delay(1);
digitalWrite(stepperPin, LOW);
delay(1);
}
}
```In this example, the LM13UU bearing is used to guide the linear motion system, allowing the 3D printer to move smoothly and accurately in the X, Y, or Z axis.### Example 2: CNC Machine Linear Axis using GRBLIn this example, we will demonstrate how to use the LM13UU bearing in a CNC machine linear axis using the GRBL firmware.```c
// GRBL commands to move the linear axis
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
}void loop() {
// Move the linear axis 10mm forward
Serial.println("G1 F100 X10");
delay(1000);
// Move the linear axis 10mm backward
Serial.println("G1 F100 X-10");
delay(1000);
}
```In this example, the LM13UU bearing is used to guide the linear axis, allowing the CNC machine to move smoothly and accurately in the X-axis.Note: These code examples are simplified and assume a basic understanding of the Arduino and GRBL platforms. In a real-world implementation, you would need to add more functionality, such as limit switches, homing procedures, and acceleration/deceleration ramps.
