Electronics box for 3d printer

Prints (0)

Description

Update: Added a quick lid for those possibly interested in using this design stand-alone. Also added some pictures of the printed result and fit. I made this electronic box for my Velleman k8400. Designed to hold an original Raspberry Pi model B, two LM2596 voltage regulators and a reprap.me power expander. Voltage regulators and the power expander board is meant to be screwed in place. My raspberry pi lacks mounting holes and is fitted between a couple of small holders in this design, I might further fasten it with a dab of hot glue if it is necessary when mounted on the printer. I am planning to use one of the voltage regulators to power the pi and the other at 12V to supply Ikea led strips. I have not intended to use a lid for this design, since I am planning to mount the "box" directly underneath the Velleman K8400 on the bottom panel. I have not completed a full print yet but have had a chance to test the fit (had to stop mid-print due to clogging, most likely have to adjust my retraction settings).

Hello, can you tell me which software you used to render the images of the enclosure?

You should put a hole or slot in for the RPi SD card. That way you won't have to rip the thing out in case something goes wrong.

Electronics have become an integral part of modern life, offering convenience and efficiency in countless ways. From smartphones to wireless earbuds, these devices enhance communication, entertainment, and productivity. However, maintaining them is crucial to ensure longevity and optimal performance. For instance, if you lose or damage one of your AirPods, finding the right AirPod replacement service is essential. Opting for an authorized service provider guarantees compatibility, quality, and warranty protection. This attention to care not only prolongs the life of your device but also prevents unnecessary expenses. Ultimately, a responsible approach to electronics helps maximize their value and functionality.
