3D Touch Probe Auto Docking (Digital Only)

Securely stores the probe in a fixed location and allows quick docking and removal.

The design uses pogo pin contacts, so there’s no need to manually connect or disconnect cables. Just dock the probe and it’s ready to use.

The file is provided in STEP format, allowing you to modify or customize the design to fit your specific setup before 3D printing.
