Bad extruder bearings

Support&troubleshooting Zortrax M200
1

Hi,

In my M200 the extruder started being a little to loose on the bearings, and it does not move smoothly.

I would like to replace the bearings and possibly linear rails. 

What brand should I use to get the best results? Also what are the dimensions?

Thanks

Hey there. You can contact us via support form and purchase original parts (https://support.zortrax.com/support-form/).

Just in case, linear bearings are LM6UU.

The linear bearings sit in the extruder block with some set screws, might want to check those first; if they loosen, you can get some play, if too tight they will bind/damage (they are very sensitive to how tight on setscrew).
