Camera mount
Description
Hi there! Thank you for downloading my camera mount for 3D printers. About the model: This camera mount is designed to attach a webcam to the 40-2020 extrusion commonly used for 3D printers. You can adjust the position by loosening the M3 screws of the arms and/or the M4 screws in the base block (part D), then tightening them after positioning. Optionally, you can use zip ties to organize the cables along with the arms (part A, B, and C), as shown in the example pictures. The base block also features a slot to secure a cable with a 3mm diameter, facilitating cable management and maintaining a tidy appearance. Positioning in FDM: For Parts A, B, and C: It is recommended to lay these parts flat on the bed to ensure strength along their length. Printing them upright (in the z-direction) may lead to instability during printing and reduced strength across layers. For Part D: This part should be placed with its top surface flat on the bed. The screw holes have sufficient clearance and do not require precise dimensional accuracy. The larger 'shaft' hole is designed to accommodate part A, and for a snug fit, it is preferable to print this hole in the z-direction. Positioning in SLS: For Parts A, B, and C: Ideally, these three parts should be built at a 30-degree angle in SLS, although they can also be printed flat. If printing them flat, ensure that part C is oriented with the M3 nut cutout either facing upward or downward. Hardware required: To assemble these parts, you will need the following: - 4x M3x10 socket button head screws - 2x T-nuts M3 - 2x M3 nuts - 1x M4x6 socket button head screw - 1x M4x5.5 brass insert (5.5mm length!) - Soldering iron (for pressing insert) - Hex screwdriver (2.0 and 2.5) or L-shaped hex key set Assembly and Installation: The assembly process for these parts is straightforward. When pressing the insert into place, ensure it is not pushed too far; it should not protrude from the other end. Only the M4 screw should extend to secure part A in place.
