Inductive proximity sensor holder

thingiverse

This is simple holder for inductive sensor and fan for auto bed leveling on Anet A6 printer. I now have this on my printer and almost operational. A few more tweaks and I should be there. When it's done i will publish the .stl files This is intended for an 18mm sensor: LJC18A3-H-Z/BX Approach Sensor Cylindrical Capacitive Proximity Switch NPN 6-36V It is somewhat larger than many people use. If you need another dimensions of the 18mm sensor i can add one with the correct hole size. In some cases keep in mind that you have to make change to the x-axis limit switch because the sensor holder will hit the left end of the printer before the limit switch does. 22-10-16 Bed leveling on Anet A6 printer it finally works.
