This project is a modular control panel designed to manage power and devices in a 3D printer setup in a clean, safe, and expandable way.
The base unit includes three front-mounted switches:
1× dual-stage main switch (KCD4) used as a master power switch
2× single-stage switches (KCD3):
One dedicated to the Raspberry Pi running Klipper
One dedicated to the 3D printer PSU
All components are panel-mount:
1× C14 power inlet
2× Type F (Schuko) power sockets
6.3 mm insulated faston connectors
16 AWG wiring
D3×20 screws for mounting to wood
M4×10 screws + nuts for the bottom panel
Panels:
Front panel with angled switch recesses to reduce the risk of accidental activation
Rear panel with power inlets and outlets
Expandable horizontally up to 3 units for the IKEA Lack, allowing users to customize their setup with additional controls and outputs
The system always uses two side panels, mounted only at the outer ends of the assembled units
Since every user’s setup is different, I included in this project FreeCAD source files to allow customization.
