Description

PDF

Included are STEP file for your CAD tool, or directly the Fusion files. If you like the model as it is, the STL model files and the Slicer files. As a hint i uploaded also the print code made for a MK4.

The board frame is hold by magnets on the base plate. The base plate fits with M3x10 mm screws on the MK4 frame, on top of the electronic box on the left side.

The pi case cover is hold together with M3x12/14mm screws and threaded inserts on the board frame. The fan is also mounted with screws and threaded inserts on the case cover.

As cam holder this is one usable:

It is stiff enough so vibration of the printer (in input shaper mode) do not reduce the quality of the video stream of the cam.

Have fun ;-)

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

I liked the idea that the Pi4 can be mounted on the base frame of the MK4. Like in the model made by WDR. But i didn't like the case…. so i was looking for an alternative. 

The model of Mecky1963 i found the perfect case. buuuuuuuut….. i had already a 4010 fan…. and cooling bodies directly installed on the chips of the pi4 board. So i had to design the fan mount outside the case. And to put in some holes for a good air circulation. Additionally i made a passthrough for the raspi cam cable.
