POP Kiosk Modular Case Adapter (part)

This section requires photographs, illustrations or screenshots.

Overview

This adapter is attached to the back, top or bottom of the kiosk using two M5 bolts. It can be used with any accessories created for the popular Modular Mounting System. It is printed in two parts and attached together with an M4 bolt and optional glue. The mount can be used with a two- or three-prong adapter.

Features

• Prints in two parts to improve long term durability
• Can be used to attach two-prong ("male") or three-prong ("female") Modular Mounting System accessories
• Adapter head can be attached to allow for either horizontal or vertical articulation
• Cut-outs allow for kiosk case heat ventilation

Printing This Part

Slicing

Orientation

Part	Notes	Example
Modular Mount Plate	We recommend printing this part with the flat side directly on the build plate.
Modular Mount Head – Two-Prong	We recommend printing this part with the prongs parallel to the build plate.
Modular Mount Head – Three-Prong	We recommend printing this part with the prongs parallel to the build plate and the rounded edge pointed up.

Settings

Modular Mount Plate

We start with the default "Standard Quality" 0.2 mm print profile. We recommend the following settings overrides:

Setting	Recommendation	Notes
Shell - Wall Line Count	4	This was increased from the default to increase the durability when higher amounts of stress are applied.
Shell - Bottom Layers	4	This will provide sturdy walls for each prong.
Shell - Top Layers	4	This will provide sturdy walls for each prong.
Infill - Density	45	This part can be subject to high stress and more infill will provide greater structural integrity.
Infill - Pattern	Tri-Hexagon Cubic Subdivision	These infill patterns provide good internal support in multiple directions.  Tri-Hexagon uses less filament but is also less durable.
Speed - Print Speed	40mm/s	For final production prints, we recommend printing slower than average to decrease stringing with small holes.
Support - Generate Support	Yes	This part has a small overhang that would be improved by supports.
Support - Support Structure	Tree	We highly recommend tree supports instead of normal supports. They take more time, but they require less filament and are much easier to remove.
Support - Support Placement	Touching Buildplate	Only printing supports that touch the build plate are much easier to remove from this print.
Build Plate Adhesion - Adhesion Type	None	This part has a lot of contact with the print bed and should not require a raft.

Modular Mount Head – Two-Prong

We start with the default "Standard Quality" 0.2 mm print profile. We recommend the following settings overrides:

Support - Support Placement	Touching Buildplate	Only printing supports that touch the build plate are much easier to remove from this print.
Build Plate Adhesion - Adhesion Type	Raft	This part is small and uses a lot of supports, so it is recommended to use a raft.
