If you can't find the part you are looking for, please contact us: info (at) van-eck.net , and we can see if we can make the part you are looking for.

Need to speak with you privately on "chat" here Edwin please. Let me know when a suitable time to do so would be please.

Sorry Edwin, I had to go out again at 4pm, will be in touch tomorrow thanks.

Can you supply a new worm drive gear for the Bolex 521 series 16mm projector? Unfortunately these projectors have the same cracked worm problem as with the Bell & Howells.

If necessary I can supply dimensions needed.

One question, are you using nylon to 3d print your replacement gears?

Ian

Hi Ian,

Propably we can. Do you know if this is the same wormgear as in the Bolex 421? I have here a Bolex 421.
Yes, we print these worm gears in nylon.

Edwin.

Hello,

Released today: a short 7 minutes documentary about 3D printing parts for film projectors: https://youtu.be/X-m9m_U_Cb4

Currently in Dutch, but soon English subtitles will be added.

Note that the printing process in this movie is only used for prototypes. The real parts are fabricated using more advanced 3D printers, which use SLS (laser sintering).

Yes. I believe the Bolex 421 and 521 have the same worm gear. I have looked at the specifications and photos and they both look the same machine.

Edwin, if you can reproduce the worm gear for the Bolex 421/521 series I will buy one. Can you measure the dimensions of the gear on your 421 without removing it?

It seems that the Bolex worm is prone to cracking (like the Bell and Howells). On my Bolex 521 the cracked gear causes very increased running noise.

I enjoyed your amazing video of making and designing the 3-D printed components.

Ian

Thanks for the suggestion!
We have here a Bolex 421. We will have a look at this to see if we can fabricate this worm gear.
When I have more info, I will leave a message on this forum.

Hi have good news, the wormgear for the Bolex 412 / 512 is ready!

For our spare part finder I want to add this projector and lack some information. Can someone help me?
Looking for:
- list of (similar) projectors where this part also fits
- user/service guides for Bolex 412/521
- some nice pictures of these projectors|addpics|4fp-4-d4ed.jpg-invaddpicsinvv|/addpics|
