Caliper Depth Base / Depth Measuring Bridge for 6" / 150mm Mitutoyo Caliper (and others)
prusaprinters
<p>I needed a Depth Measuring Bridge for my Mitutoyo Digimatic Absolute AOS Caliper. (You can read my - german - Review of this Caliper <a href="https://smile.amazon.de/gp/customer-reviews/R1U1GXX4T4B0UO/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B00IG46NL2&tag=tv-auto-20">here</a>).<br/> Because I needed it<strong>today</strong> (when else?), I "desingned" one from scratch. OK. The price was another argument for doing it instead of buying an original Part. :-/</p> <p>I have also found that the measuring foot can also be used for other calipers, for example from Tesa, Blankenhorn or even these so-called $ 1.50 Things from aliexpress, ebay or Amazon. The caliper must not be wider than 16mm.</p> <p>So, here ist is, printed with my AnyCubic i3 MEGA, with Filament from Goedis: <a href="https://shop.goedis.de/PLA-Schwarz-175mm">Black PLA</a>.</p> <p>I suggest<strong>20% infill</strong>, 0.15 mm Height of Layer, 1,06% Flow, 215° Nozzle, 60° Heatbed and 60% Cooling. (I use an Titan Extruder and Sunon Fans, you'll try it with your Standard PLA Settings). Also, I refer to add supports for the recess. See Screenshots.</p> <p>You'll need a M4x8mm Screw to counter the Caliper in the Measuring Bridge. But do this with<strong>feeling and very carefully</strong>, because the part could bend and then the measurement accuracy is no longer given. In the worst case, you can also damage the flanks of your calliper!</p> <p>I suggest also to print the measuring foot upright, that is, the measuring surface printed on the printing bed. This is most likely to give a good surface at the crucial points and a right angle. It should be clear that this part is only as good as your printer is calibrated. For serious purposes, I recommend buying the original.</p> <p>But for sensitive parts for example, that thing is just right.</p> <p>I recommend following sets of screws, so you have enough of them for the rest of the Week ;-) : 460 Countersunk Screws and 1080 Cylinder Head Screws.</p> <p>If you need a left-handed version, just mirror it. But you will know that yourself. ;-)</p> <p>31.05.:</p> <ul> <li>Added Version with Threads on both Sides, so you can use the thing as left- or right handed</li> <li><p>Added a 10mm higher Version with two more screw holes. So the caliper sits bombproof.<br/> 03.06.:</p> </li> <li><p>Outer edges, except for the receptacle, provided with radius.<br/> Some of the links are Affiliate.
