Anet A8 Raspberry Pi Cam Holder

July 24, 2017 2 Comments

 I modified the screwless raspi cam mount by DanielBull to be mountable (with one screw) on the Anet A8. I also modified the cam case that fits the M12 raspi cam hack. Further I modified the back cover, because the original design scraped off some SMD parts of the cam.

I only tested this design for the original Rev1.3 raspbbery pi cam. If you want to use it with another cam module, check the differences of the dimensions before you print this thing.

You need following parts for vanilla raspberry camera:

  • camera_holder_bracket_for_anet_a8.stl
  • camera_mount_front_by_DanielBull.stl
  • camera_mount_back_more_space.stl
  • camera_mount_hinge_by_DanielBull.stl

You need following parts for raspberry camera with M12 hack:

  • camera_holder_bracket_for_anet_a8.stl
  • camera_mount_front_m12.stl
  • camera_mount_back_more_space.stl
  • camera_mount_hinge_by_DanielBull.stl

You can mount the holder on each of the 2 outer holes on the back of the printer:

  • top left hole for the Anet A8 Board (picture). The M3 screw should be 4mm longer
  • left hole of the bottom left hole of the Anet A8 board. You need a M3x16+mm screw + M3 nut and a washer (optional)
  • same on the opposite side, where the power supply is mounted.

Depends on how far away your raspberry pi is from the camera, you may need a longer ribbon cable: https://goo.gl/8y9xqR
For the M12 hack, I used the lens + lens mount + lens cover from this arduino module: https://goo.gl/hfU63k

    Hallo Herr Hofmann,
    bin an einem Gehäuse für die Raspi Kamera mit M12 Linse. Und auf Ihre A8 Lösung gestoßen. Habe gedruckt und dann gemerkt, dass meine Kamera nicht hineinpasst.
    Offenbar habe ich ein Kameramodul, das seitenverkehrt ist gegenüber dem, das Grundlage des
    camera_mount_front_m12.stl ist. Bei Ihnen ist der große Ausschnitt im Boden direkt am Kabeleintritt.
    Ich bräuchte ihn genau auf der anderen Seite des Bodens, also quasi den Boden um 180° drehen.
    Wäre das möglich?
    MfG Ludwig Wiechers

    Hallo Herr Wiechers,

    ich kann es mir noch nicht so ganz vorstellen. Ist Ihre Kamera auf diesem Foto dabei? http://www.semifluid.com/2017/01/23/raspberry-pi-camera-comparison/
    Oder können Sie ein Foto machen, auf z.B. http://imgur.com hochladen und den Link hier teilen?
    Auf Thingiverse biete ich zusätzlich auch die 123D Design Dateien (*.123dx) bereit, worüber Sie auch selber probieren können, das Problem zu lösen. Alternativ bietet sich auch Tinkercad (.stl-Datei) an.

    Viele Grüße
