Ugra 132 GPH Water Pump Bracket for Grunblau Platform CNC

thingiverse

These files are to provide adequate mounting brackets for the Grunblau Design Studio Platform CNC Kit at http://www.grunblau.com/PlatformCNC.htm These mounts are to wrap around the Ugra Water Pump 12V 132GPH For Water Cooling System (MS-500) at https://ugracnc.com/index.php/online-store/product/classic-stripe-shirt I designed this to mount on the back of the Z-axis 80/20 aluminum extrusions, they attach to the horizontal inset lines of the extrusion and attach via T-nuts on the inside of the extrusion. We used the same size screws for the large holes to attach to the T-nuts that were included in the kit, but had to order more from McMaster-Carr. They are Type 316 Stainless Steel Low Profile Socket Head Cap Screw 5/16"-18 Thread, 1" Long. The smaller holes have a 1/8" diameter, so any screw with a 1/16" radius should work and have at least a length of 3/4" length to fit a matching nut on one end to tighten up the front bracket with the back bracket. I designed this to be in two parts because even with some variation of 3D printers and warping, the two piece design allows for a margin of error and the screws provide the tightening force around the water pump. Print Settings Printer: FlashForge Creator Pro Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Infill: 75% Notes: We printed at 75% infill, but less could probably work as well. We just increased the infill in case the water circulating in the water pump created more weight than expected. Print with supports so the holes don't collapse upon printing.
