2020 Aplic Cam Mount

2020 Aplic Cam Mount

2020 Aplic Cam Mount is a 3D printed part that is used to mount a cheapo aplic hd camera (or similar) to the 2020 frame at bed level. The mount is designed to be held in place with a M3 screw and a M3 nut. Additionaly, you need 4x M3 heat inserts, 4x M3 spacers and 4x M3x6 screws for mounting the camera on the mount (pun intended).

You can also invert mount the camera under the gantry, which would work better for monitoring higher layers. Photo courtesy of tsimo V2.6592

Files

• aplic_cam_mount_voron_2_4_300x300.stl - The mount STL, angled for the Voron 2.4 300x300mm geometry.
• aplic_cam_mount_voron_2_4_300x300_shortened.stl - Shortened version STL,for inverse mounting on a Voron 2.4 300x300mm gantry.
• aplic_cam_mount.scad - The OpenSCAD file for the mount (you can modify the parameters for your own printer's geometry).

Parts

The mount is designed to be used with the following parts:

- 1x 3d printed 2020 Aplic Cam Mount
- 1x Aplic Webcam - 1920x1080P stripped from its plastic case
- 1x M3x10 screw
- 1x M3 2020 T-nut
- 4x M3 heat inserts
- 4x M3x4 spacers
- 4x M3x6 screws

Printing

The mount is printed in the orientation that as is in the STL file. The mount should be printed with the recommended Voron settings (40% infill and 4 perimeters) in ABS/ASA. That said, I've printed mine in PETG and it still holds. No supports or mount needed.
