Clamp for 12mm linear rail compression type
Description
This Is A Set Of Clamps For 12Mm Linear Rod Based On My Version That Clamped The Rod By A Single M4 Bolt In An Injection Nut. This Version Uses Clamping Like The Original Aluminium Clamp So More Even Clamping Of The 12Mm Rod Which Spreads The Clamping Force Accross More Of The Rod. It Uses A M4 Nut Inserted In A Nut Trap From The Top Of The Clamp. The Mounting Holes Sized For M4 Bolts. The Following Clamps In This Thing: - Simple Clamp Circular With Mount Holes - Simple Clamp With Slotted Mount Holes - Clamp With Opto-Endstop Mount With Circular Mount Holes (Needs Injection Nuts For Opto) - Clamp With Opto-Endstop Mount With Slotted Mount Holes (Needs Injection Nuts For Opto) The Openscad Source Can Generate The Above Clamps As Well As The Insert Based Ones Depending On How The Function Is Called. Note: ----- After Printing And Using A Few More Of These It Appears The Compromise I Made In The Position The The Pinch Nut Is A Little Too Close To The Slot So Has A Potential Weakness. I Placed The Nut Slot In Its Cu5Rrent Position To Allow Bolt Adjustment On The Optical Endstop Version To Not Conflict With The Brass Injection Nut Used To Hold The Opto End Stop Board. I Only Had 5Mm Long Inserts. I Have Some 3Mm Ones Coming And Since Thicker Is Better I Will Update All Of These To A Stronger Version. It Might Take Me A Few Days To Get The Update Done Since I'Ve Got Bad A Shoulder Injury That I'M Waiting For Surgery On That Computer Work Aggravates. In The Mean Time If You Print In Abs I Suggest A Few Drops Of Acetone From A Syringe In The Area Pressed On By The Nut When Tightened To Help Bond The Layers Better And Don'T Over Tighten The Pinch Bolt.
