Model details

Description

Overview and production context

Introducing the 3D model of a spring-loaded marker holder designed for robotic arms. This holder features a height compensation mechanism that automatically adapts to surface irregularities through vertical movement of the marker assembly. The model has a universal mounting interface for standard cylindrical arms with a diameter of 25–30 mm and is designed for markers with a diameter of 15–17 mm. The spring mechanism with at least 10 mm travel and guides prevents tilting, ensuring stability.

How to use this model

Use cases, fit and pre-production checks

This 3D model is ideal for 3D printing with PLA. A wall thickness of at least 2 mm and infill of 20–30% are recommended. The model is optimized for printing, without decorative elements, focusing on manufacturability and ease of assembly. The STL format ensures compatibility with most 3D printers. The model can also be used in games, AR/VR applications, or as part of industrial visualization, demonstrating the functionality of robotic systems.
