#3DThursday is a great time to explore the possibilities of 3D printing. This week, we’ll be looking at how to 3D print a DIN rail mount for the Raspberry Pi Zero.
The Raspberry Pi Zero is a powerful, low-cost computer that can be used for a variety of projects. It’s small size makes it ideal for projects where space is limited, such as in industrial settings. However, it can be difficult to mount the Pi Zero in these settings due to its small size and lack of mounting holes.
Fortunately, 3D printing can provide a solution. By designing and 3D printing a custom DIN rail mount, you can easily mount the Pi Zero in any industrial setting.
The first step is to design the mount. You’ll need to measure the size of the Pi Zero and create a model that will securely hold it in place. You’ll also need to design the mount to fit onto a standard DIN rail. Once you have the design ready, you can print it out using a 3D printer.
Once you have the mount printed, you’ll need to attach it to the DIN rail. This is usually done with screws or bolts. Once the mount is securely attached, you can then attach the Pi Zero to the mount. Make sure that it is securely attached before powering it up.
Finally, you’ll need to connect all of the necessary cables and peripherals to the Pi Zero. Once everything is connected, you can then power it up and begin using it.
3D printing a DIN rail mount for the Raspberry Pi Zero is a great way to make your project easier and more efficient. With a little bit of design work and some 3D printing, you can easily mount your Pi Zero in any industrial setting.
