Sony IMX179 mounting for a 3D printer

prusaprinters

<p>The camera is very compact and is sold without a case. &nbsp;To be used in a 3D printer a protective case and mounting system are required.</p><p>I designed a case where the camera stick is attached with two 4mm M2 screws using hot inserts. &nbsp;The stick acts like the back for the case. &nbsp;The stick has two 6mm thick rings for the mounting with a 6mm gap between them &nbsp;First ring has a hole for M4 screw. The other ring has a bigger hole for 6mm long M4 hot insert.</p><p>The camera mount has two holes for M6 screws to mount it on a 2020 or 3030 extruded frame. &nbsp;The mount has one 6mm thick ring with a hole for M4 screw. &nbsp;After pointing the camera to right direction the screw is tightened and camera position is fixed.</p><p>Let me know if you need this design without the hot inserts. In that case, the M2 insert is replaced with a hole for the screw. &nbsp;The M4 insert is replaced with an external M4 nut.</p>
