STEP 9: Design & print a 3d case for the controller and screen

In order to attach the controller to the table and protect the controller, we designed a case shown in (1 & 1.1) using Fusion 360 software to hold the controller inside it and printed the case using a 3D-printer. Also, we designed a case shown in (2) using Fusion 360 software to hold the touch screen and the switch. First, the controller is put inside the case as shown in (1.2) and screwed carefully, then it is placed on the table next to the machine as shown in (1.3) (at the back-side of the laser head to protect the wires crossing the engraving area). Secondly, the switch is inserted in the touch-screen's case as shown (2.1) and connect the touch-screen wires as shown in (2.2 & 2.3), then the touch-screen is placed in the case and screwed carefully and placed on the table next to the controller as shown in (2.4).
