RE: HOMING ISSUES
What I meant was, the belts, the flat side of the belts have to go together; they slip easily therefore it will reduce the 10-12 teeth to 3-4.
That it not correct. When you form the belt loop, it is the toothed side of the belt that touches the toothed side of the loop end. This is the only way how the two can interlock and stop the belts from slipping.
It still seems very likely that you form the loops incorrectly. Please look closely at the photos hyiger and I share above. And please post a photo of your belt attachment.
RE:
if you look at the holder plate from the side that will touch the linear rail you see that each belt has 3 holes. The belt right and left side will indeed enter the center hole with the flat side touching, as you show in your last picture. Then each side need to go into the holes left and right so that their toothed side will touch the toothed side of the incoming belt. Tooth will interlock, when pressed agsinst the linear rail it will become nearly impossible to pull the belts out.
if you do not post a picture of the plate ready to be screwed onto the rail, there is nothing more jürgen, hyiger, me or anybody else can write to help you.
RE: HOMING ISSUES
I decided to read up on another troubles they have had with the belt and getting it work with the nextruder holder. Therefore here is some of my most recent picture; at this point I have the belts though but getting 4-5 teeth though the holder for X-axis & Y-axis and getting them to stay, that is the most difficult.
One more suggestion. Looking at your earlier picture, it seems that you first inserted all the belts, then tried to form the loops for each of them. That is not a good approach: Before the loops are formed, there is nothing which holds the belts in the Nextruder plate. As you have experienced, they will slip out very easily.
Instead, insert only the first belt end, and form the loop (back through the neighboring slot) right away. Then this belt is already held in place by its interlocking teeth. Next, insert the next belt and form the loop -- and so on.
