2020 Extrusion Panel mounts

prusaprinters

<p>This panel mount allows Plexiglas panels or other panel materials to be mounted within 2020 aluminum extrusion frames. I used them to add a panel to the bottom of my HyperCube printer. The mounts provide the advantage of placing the mounting hole well away from the edge and putting gentle pressure on a wider area rather than a concentrated screw hole so that cracking is less likely . Using these mounts also makes the panel easy to remove without internal access.</p> <p>To use these panel mounts, drill a 6 mm hole in the panel 12 mm from the edge. Attach the mount with the bushing and a 3 mm x 8 mm screw and washer. Use a 5 mm screw and extrusion T-Nut to mount the other end to your 2020 extrusion. The bushing hole is self tapping.</p> <p>The mount is designed for 3 mm thick panels but can be used with thicker panels. For thinner panels, you may need to shorten the bushing.</p> <p>This is the HyperCube Printer I am using these panel mounts on. <a href="/make:272257">http://www.thingiverse.com/make:272257</a></p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>HyperCube</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>50%</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>PLA is fine, ABS even better</p></div> </p></p> Category: 3D Printer Accessories
