Meanwell NES-350-12 Power Supply Cover

thingiverse

I purchased a Meanwell nes-350-12 power supply for the printer. It comes with a plastic strip over the terminals. Obviously it's designed to be placed in a rack/enclosure. Since those terminals are accessible to anyone's fingers I felt I need to design a cover for it. The cover design is pretty straightforward. It slips on easily. The power cable is retained by a small clip and two screws. Try using the 1/2" long 1/8" self tapping screws. There are two holes for 14 gage wires to carry the DC current out. I use two 1/8" brackets to mount the cover the bottom of the makerslide. This cover design is the latest after several previous iterations. The features where the M4 screws sit were reinforced with the ribs. Right now it is able to hold the entire Hadron printer weight by the power chord without snapping. Instructions Print the cover with support. I use slic3r 0910b. 70% infill, 2.5 mm rectilinear grid support. It takes 3.5-4 hours to print. Once it's cleaned use two M4x6 flat head screws to mount it. Because there is plastic in the clamp I put a dab of blue loctite on the screws
