With the Logitech C270 mount for Hephestos 2, you can easily mount your Logitech C270 USB camera on the Y-carriage to follow the movement of the build plate during printing. This setup provides a clear view of your print process without interference from movement.
The camera is placed centrally in relation to the build plate and is designed to be outside of the print head's range of motion, ensuring it doesn't affect prints. Over several months of use, no artefacts have been detected in the prints due to the extra weight, but this may vary depending on your setup.
The setup only requires standard M4 screws, making installation quick and uncomplicated. It's almost possible to adjust the angle if you need to film taller prints; perhaps consider adding a wide-angle lens or adjusting the mounting angle to get the view you want.
The Logitech C270 mount is ideal for use with OctoPrint, improving your monitoring of the printing process.
