Customed universal magnetic ball joint mounting assembly for 3D printer
What is universal magnetic ball joint?
Magnetic Universal Joint is a holding device which has flexible joints with a diameter 8mm-25mm steel ball held by powerful rare earth magnet contained in the magnet brass or Al cylinder. And the magnetic universal ball joint allow the steel ball a full 360°rotation on a 180°axis line. This caused even if the ball comes off from the magnet cylinder, no damage can be made and the joints can work just as well as before when reset.
Application:
Due to the use of high-energy rare-earth magnets, magnetic ball joints have a very strong holding force. The resulting displacement force of the ball is strong enough to hold the optical systems of cameras, lighting fixtures or laser units without requiring a mechanical fixation.
Examples:
Since the magnetic ball joint is electro-conductive, rapidrelease and rotatable electrical connections can be made with such a system. This is of advantage, for instance, in modern low-voltage lamps. Rapid-release connections for test fixtures are also possible. In lifting linkages a predetermined breaking point can be provided, or sideways movements compensated. Due to the use of high-energy rare-earth magnets, magnetic ball joints types KD… have a very strong holding force. The resulting displacement force of the ball is strong enough to hold the optical systems of cameras, lighting fixtures or laser units without requiring a mechanical fixation.
There are many models of the magnetic ball joints with threaded, showed in below diagram.
