Advanced Tool Organizing Module (A.T.O.M.)
byAtom Engineering
Introducing A.T.O.M.
A custom-built tool organizer, designed to be installed between the linear modules on the Snapmaker 2.0 A250 or A350 model. Although this system could also be implemented on other printers given the necessary spatial requirements are met.
Printed using Fulament Matte black and orange PLA. Purchase Filament Here
Problem Statement⚠️
I frequently found myself needing to access the same set of tools, hardware, and accessories while working with my Snapmaker A250. Which got me thinking, why not design an integrated drawer system with custom foam cutouts. Helping to alleviate my problem, and giving me quick access to these key components.
Design Context ⚙️
I started this design by down-selecting the critical tools, hardware, and accessories I wanted to store within the drawer. From there I began arranging them as efficiently as possible with the limited space I had. I quickly realized that I would need a two-tier system in order to fit all the components.
So I decided to design a quick detach insert that is held in place via magnets just above the lower foam organizer. Giving me space to hold a 14mm and 17mm wrench. As well as the two variations of M4x10 screws used during the transition from the 3D printing bed to the laser cutting bed. The ability to quickly remove the insert provides access to the lower tier of components and functions as a portable carrier for the screws.
