PiClop 3D Scanner

thingiverse

This is a modification of bqLabs CiClop 3D Scanner. I have changed it to accommodate a Raspberry Pi in place of the Arduino. The electrical circuit and software are not yet completed. Sketchup files are included. Laser Mount the nut has been relocated so that it inserts from inside the laser mounting hole, providing more material around the nut and making it easier to remove if needed; use an M3 bolt and nut Turn Table Base I removed the M8 nut traps as they did not allow for easy adjustment of the M8 bolt lengths; I changed the design to make this easier, recessing the nuts on one side - you will need a socket for these; added clips that bolt in place with 25mm M5 hex bolts and nuts to hold the bearing, which have nut traps on the underside accessed from where the motor mounts; removed foot locators; removed all extra supports (they are not needed for printing), only supports remain for the motor shaft and bolts and the bearing mount bolts, these can be easily cleaned with a drillbit and knife Table Plate I had to increase some of the dimensions slightly to accommodate the bearing better (probably due to my printer capabilities); increased the volume around the shaft coupling socket as I found that the original design was prone to layer separation when the part was twisted; removed the supports for the bearing clips and printed them on their side (no supports needed); there are supports in the bolt holes that will need to be cleaned out with a drillbit; use three button head M6 25mm bolts and nuts to mount Case I modified it to fit a Raspberry Pi; the case is split into two pieces so that they can be printed on smaller beds; the pieces are bolted together, use two M5 20mm hex bolts and nuts to attach the top to the base (there are nut traps accessed from the inside of the top housing); the Raspberry Pi is held in place with two printed spring clips; removed all extra supports from the original; print the case pieces face down, no additional supports should be needed; the lid should be printed on end, I use an extra wide brim to give support against bed motion; four 12mm M3 bolts and nuts are used to mount the cover, which slide into a nut trap in the main housing (be sure to clear the holes of supports first using a drillbit) Shaft Coupling I used the original as-is
