AMS Lite Wall Mount | Generative Design

UPDATE: The design remains unchanged. I've added a 2nd version with M4 screw holes. This is done using negative modifiers. The 3MF contains the original M3 and new M4 (once sliced). It's the same model on both plates but the modifiers once sliced create larger screw holes. This is based on user feedback. Thanks.

I wanted to mount the AMS Lite on the wall above my A1. I therefore designed a wall bracket and decided to make it a bit more interesting by using generative design to come up with a bracket that's strong enough to hold a loaded AMS Lite.

The bracket is over engineered, it's designed to take a 10Kg load and has a factor of safety of 2. I've used PETG. If you print in an alternative material I see no issue but please consider doing your own tests to ensure you're happy to hang your AMS Lite on the wall. I have uploaded print profiles for PLA as well but this is untested by me.

The bracket is designed with M3 countersunk holes. If you'd prefer an alternative size I can make the modification. You could use another of my uploads to create a modifier for M4 if necessary. https://makerworld.com/en/models/52167

I've uploaded a pdf of the bracket with the hole centres. You can print this at 100% on A4 paper and use to mark out your holes for drilling. I've positioned the top of the mount 75cm from my desk surface. Using the drawing, position the bottom of the paper level with the top of the A1 frame and use the centre line to position in the middle. This should give you a good position for making your mounting holes in the wall. I hope I've explained that correctly.
