This Machine Sorts your bolts by their size.
For more info watch the Video on Top
Max Length: 60mm
Important! Bolts that are too short for their size will cause problems as their dont self align then in the modules.
Example: M6x8 is too short but M6x12 works
Nuts are not supported.
They work great as the device was designed specifically for them
They get lifted standing alot and get stuck on the ramp quite often. They require quite some manual error fixing.
Its probably easier to sort them by hand.
They Work but sometimes get stuck in the printing lines during the lifting process. This stops the machine and you need to push the bolt manually to continue. They sometimes have problems rolling to the next wall because of their hex head shape.

More Modules from 2mm to 7mm in 0.2mm steps available on my PATREON
i printed all parts with 0.2mm and a 0.4mm nozzle.
The only parts that require Support are the Lifter
and the Body (worked for me without support as well but its cleaner with support)
I chose the LA001 Motor Makerworld offers. You can purchase it directly from here.
but you can buy the Motor from other sources as well.
You can plug in into a powerbank or any other 5V usb slot.
2 M3x25 Screws are required to screw the motor to the Motorblock
There are Assembly instructions at the end of the Youtube video on Top
You Pour your bolts into the hopper (only supported types and sizes)
Then you place in the Modul of the biggest bolts you have
You plug in the motor to a Powerbank and let the device run until the hopper is empty.
one tray should contain bolts that are smaller than the Modul size and the other tray should contain only the size of the modul.
As the device is not 100% accurate there might be some bolts in that tray. (more about the accuracy later). Now you can either remove the few wrongly sorted bolts by hand or sort the bolts from that tray again.
Empty the tray with the Modul bolts.
After that you switch the modul to the next size and pour the bolts from the other tray back in the hopper and repeate the whole process until all bolts are sorted.
!IMPORTANT! I do not reccomend to leave the device alone when running. stay in the same room in case of jams or other failures happen
I did many tests and the average error rate is about 2%. This may vary for you.
My tests contained the following screws of random sizes:
