Quickmill 02835 - external mount for retrofitted manometer

thingiverse

This part is more of a temporary solution for myself and is meant more as an inspiration for an improved design. Installation is as follows: - install manometer with the fixed capillary tube inside the machine - route the capillary tube to the top front between the case plates - put the case with the slot over the tube - add the printed clamping ring into the case - slide the manometer in place in front - with the bracket of the manometer tighten the printed clamping ring towards the back of the manometer to lock it in place (somewhat) - fix the case to the machine by using some doublesided tape (as said, it's a temporary solution for me :) ) Manometer used: 1245001 for isomac machines. Print the case oriented laying on the front surface. Use some manual support materials depending on the overhang capabilities of your filament / print settings. Thoughts for improving the design: keeping the slot helps with installing the case on top of an installed manometer. But it would be a better solution to implement a tightening solution which tightens the manometer inside by narrowing the slot with a screw-solution or similar.
