Hello, I am building a robotic X-Y positioner. I am presently developing the mechanism. The X-axis rail I have is too heavy for my purpose (80/20 aluminum extrusion and linear bearing with nylon pads).
Can anyone recommend a light-weight rail with a ball bearing - bearing, or where to look for one or examples?
The rail is 3 feet long. it extends out from the Y-axis and is not connected to anything at the end opposite of the Y-axis.
Thank You, this is my first post after my introduction.

Here's a 1000mm linear rail guide with sliding guide block

Anything seems possible when you don't know what you're talking about.
