V-Slot Lamp & Webcam articulated Holder for 3D Printer – Motion Sensor Compatible

This is a multi-purpose holder designed to attach a motion sensor lamp and an optional webcam to the V-slot extrusion of a 3D printer. The mount provides a secure, adjustable way to install a cheap USB-rechargeable motion sensor light (available on Amazon) while also offering a top mount for a webcam to monitor prints remotely.

Features

  • Designed for V-Slot Extrusions – Compatible with most 3D printer frames (Creality, Anycubic, etc.).
  • Dual Mounting System – Holds both a lamp and a webcam, improving both lighting and print monitoring.
  • Adjustable Lamp Angle – Directs light where needed for optimal illumination.
  • Motion Sensor-Friendly – Positions the lamp for automatic activation when approaching.
  • Webcam Ready – Top section designed to hold a standard clip-on webcam (e.g., Logitech C270, C920, etc.).
  • Easy Installation – Slides into the V-slot and secures with an M5 T-nut and screw.
  • Cable Management Consideration – Allows easy access for USB charging and webcam wiring.

Assembly & Installation

  • Print the holder using PETG or ABS for durability (PLA is possible but less resistant to heat and wear).
  • Slide the holder into the V-slot rail of your 3D printer’s frame.
  • Attach the motion sensor lamp using its magnetic base or adhesive strip.
  • Clip or mount a webcam to the top holder section.
  • Adjust as needed for optimal lighting and camera positioning.
  • Enjoy hands-free lighting & remote monitoring of your 3D prints!

Print Settings

  • Material: PETG / ABS recommended (PLA possible)
  • Layer Height: 0.2mm
  • Infill: 20%+
  • Supports: Tree recommended
  • Print Orientation: Flat on the bed

Why Use This Holder?

Many 3D printers lack proper lighting, making it difficult to monitor prints, especially in low-light environments. This mount solves two problems at once by allowing you to attach a motion-activated lamp for visibility and a webcam for remote monitoring via OctoPrint, Obico, or other platforms.
