MKS Filament Sensor Case & Mount

thingiverse

I designed these parts based on the following sensor: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Funssor-3D-printer-filament-sensor-with-calble-break-detection-switch-PLA-ABS-broken-material-to-suspend/32809590044.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.0.5lYblp This sensor is compatible with my MKS TFT32 touchscreen so I modeled my own case and mount for my printer. I used as reference the model presented on the link shown above. You basically put the sensor on the bottom part and then you close with the upper part. You can tighten by using M3 screws and nuts. I made slots so that the sensor can be positioned with respect to the filament extruder. I positioned my own so that it stays just below the extruder. There might be one issue which is to be able to insert the filament through the holes. It needs some practice to pass it through.
