Tevo Black Widow Controlbox vertical mounting to profile by Jupacreations

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

The original Black Widow control box is large and in some appliications not user friendly.
I took the PSU as a seperate part and placed it elsewhere (underneath the printer table). The MKS GEN V1.4 and the PSU are connected by 12 AWG silicone wire and XT60 connectors to make them easy disconnectable. Mounting bracket is included.
The MKS GEN V1.4 mainboard is equipped with an angled USB adapter cable where the end is hot glued in the controlbox.
The original 120 mm control box fan is reused and part of the construction and cools the MKS GEN v1.4 adequat. The 24 volt fan is stepped down by a 24 to 12 volt DC/DC converter. Cables and other wires can be tightend to the box by zipties. 6 bridges can be used.
The controlpanel can be moved at the required location on the vertical profile.
SD card is still accessable.
If you use a raspberry Pi there is a holder for it too.
Can be printed in your beloved filament except Flex/TPU
Nozzle size used 0.4 mm at 0.2 mm layerheigth.
