Proximity sensor mount for i3 Rework E3D Extruder v3

thingiverse

Difference from v2 is that it is now positioned more to the center of the hot-end in the Y direction. This prevents the bed to be out of reach from the sensor as was the case with the v2 as well. Notes from v2 remain the same: Korri on thingiverse made this. I completely re-did it in 123D so that it can mount lower and fits a i3 Rework E3D Extruder:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:257811http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:415175 (1.75mm) I used a LJ12A3-4-Z/BX sensor with this thing. The previous mount from Korri wasn't low enough to hold it and have it sense the build plate. Instructions I completely designed it from scratch using Autodesk 123D Design. I have included the source file for your pleasure. :) Note: Be sure to combine (hot key -> [ ) the long thingy with the round thing with the hole in it before exporting as STL. Printed with Siridi Royal Blue PLA at 195ºC and bed temperature of 60ºC. Printed with the following settings in Cura: Print speed 30mm/s (Advanced tap: Bottom layer speed 10mm/s) 0.3mm layer height 0.8 shell 0.9 bottom/top 20% fill density Support type: Touching buildplate Platform adhesion type: none
