Tevo Tarantula BLTouch Support by Noumcreation

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

This mount was designed to limit the amount of offset. It holds the BlTouch between the wheels of the X-Carriage, this way you can probe automatically the whole bed.
I first used the 5mm offset without shield and encountered heat issues. This is how I discovered the other mount (linked below). I've decided to add a shield, this solution seems to work !
There is two different mounts : 5/3mm offset (from the wheel axis), meaning that the 5mm is closer to the hotend :)
UPDATES :
2018-03-29 : I've lowered the cable holes of the shield to avoid squeezing the cablesI haven't printed ABS and I would recommend printing the mount out of ABS if you plan using high temperatures.
I also left the original design since you can protect the sensor with this type of socket :https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/SWMAKER-1pcs-NEWEST-Silicone-Socks-Heater-Block-cover-Silicone-Insulation-for-Replicator-Anet-Prusa-i3-MK7/32828316321.html
Offsets :
5mm OffSet : Y+18 (SENSOR_BEHIND 18)
3mm OffSet : Y+20 (SENSOR_BEHIND 20) - to be confirmed, did't tried
It's not a remix since I didn't know about this version when I design the mount but it's the same idea :) https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2010315
