Probe mount for Sensors M12 and M8

thingiverse

A mount for an inductive sensor (or capacitive) that's M12 size, like the LJ12A3-4-Z/BY, for use with the quick change plate made by PropperPrinting and achmed20. I beefed it up a little more, given that the inductive sensor is a lot heavier than a bltouch, but it probably would've been fine already. 0.5 mm tolerance (hole made at 12.5mm) The original version STL has the sensor in line with the mounting holes. There's two alternative versions, one of which I'd recommend that you use instead as they give the sensor more rear clearance so that it doesn't hit the X-carriage bracket on the right side. **railforM12sizeSensorMovedForward.stl** For using the mount in the 'flat part up' way that you see in the CAD screenshot. Use this if you have a larger sensing distance like 8 mm. **railforM12sizeSensorMovedBackward.stl** For using the mount upside down, so that your sensor is closer to the print bed. Use this if you have a probe with a 4 mm sensing distance. **railforM8sizeSensor.stl** For use with a probe that is 8 mm in diameter. Set up for being used with the flat part close to the print bed aka 'upside-down'.
