PitClamp Mini

Summary

3d printed modular quick-release adjustable and removable mount ecosystem for iHSV57, 57AIM, 42AIM, NEMA23 motors. Intended for use with OSSM. 4040/3030 extrusion, flat mount, or clamping base.

Stress tested to 50 ft-lb without grip being compromised. (PLA 5 walls 15% crosshatch infill)

Motor Head Support

  • Default OSSM (57AIM and iHSV57 NEMA23)
  • SpockAroundTheClock's Compact Motor Head (42AIM)
  • just_b's Universal Motor Head (57AIM, 42AIM, and iHSV57 NEMA23)

Features

  • 4 degree precision quick-adjustable rotation
  • Motor can be quickly removed from mount for storage or use in another base
  • Selection of bases for different use cases
    • Extrusion Top Mount
      • (Extrusion agnostic, but was designed for as small as 3030)
    • Quick Clamp Ratchet + 3030 Extrusion Mount
      • (This mount is the reason behind the whole project)
      • POWERTEC 71408 is the clamp pictured
      • "Guide rail MFT ratchet clamp" search term to find similar prodcuts
    • Double Hinge Folding Mount
      • (Folds flat for easier frame storage, e.g. sliding under bed)
    • (FUTURE) Fully printed Tabletop Clamp
    • (FUTURE) PitClamp-As-Hinges
    • (FUTURE) Pneumatic SC40 Cylinder Pump
  • (FUTURE) Relocatable OSSM Reference Board v2
  • (FUTURE) (Optional) Capacitor located on motor for solder-less pre-v2.3 board compatability
