Andonstar USB microscope mount for Liteplacer Pick and place (SHAT1220)

thingiverse

This is a custom adapter for the Liteplacer pick and place kit.\r\n\r\nThis adapter enables you to replace the standard downward facing camera with an Andonstar V160 USB microscope. The standard downward facing camera has a larger diameter than the Andonstar, making it a good candidate for replacement.\r\n\r\nAfter researching online, I discovered that the Apertus wiki recommended using the Misumi SHAT1220 adapter, but I was not satisfied with its dimensions or price (approximately $25 plus shipping). The dimensions were slightly too thin, and the price was higher than I wanted to pay.\r\n\r\nUsing the critical dimensions of the SHAT1220 as a reference point, I created this adapter by increasing the height to improve alignment. However, please note that my design is still tentative since my Liteplacer kit has not yet arrived. If you have any suggestions for improvements, feel free to let me know.\r\n\r\nThe teardrop-shaped holes in this adapter allow for easy printing without requiring hole cleaning, making it simple to insert the bolts.\r\n\r\nUPDATE! I have now set up my Liteplacer kit and discovered that one of the Z rollers interferes with the original mount. To resolve this issue, I uploaded a new model that reduces the height and ensures proper functionality. This revised adapter is available as the "fakeSHAT1220deux.stl" file.
