After overheating a borescope camera by printing too much ABS I have redesigned my previous design to be detachable. This saves me from buying a new camera every couple of months and digging up my allan keys to disassemble the camera every time I need to print with high-temp materials.
It uses a slightly modified wire guide at the back of the extruder carriage to attach the NozzleCam mount. (This wire guide is same as my original design, so no need to reprint if you're upgrading to this redesign)
Camera holders have been redisigned to correct the additional offset introduced by the detachable mounting hardware w.r.t. the previous design. Files have been included for 5.5mm, 7mm and 8mm camera holders. The angle and hight of the camera w.r.t. the nozzle is adjustable with the slotted attachment.
Print in orientation provided. No supports required! (Though bridging settings for printing the ‘CameraMount’ parts should be well tuned if printing this part with PETG)
I strongly advise double checking the clearance to the heatbed cable cover with the camera installed before printing. The camera will crash into the sock cable cover! I have made a very low profile heatbed cable cover that provides plenty of clearance with the nozzlecam installed:
LowProfile heatbed cable cover
Assembly:
Hardware required:
2x M3 nut
2x M3 bolt 10mm, at least one of which needs a small head height of at most 2mm.
Update [23-3-2021]:
Minor updates to camera holder files. Old ones still available for larger vertical movement range, with V2 added for which the camera can be mounted closer to the wire guide.
