Nextion 10.1" Enclosure

After upgrading my IoT display from an enclosed 7" Nextion to the 10.1" that does not come with an enclosure, nor does Itead even sell one, I needed something to protect the screen.

The pdf with dimensions from Nextion,(which I have included), was a starting point but certain things did not match exactly with my screen.

There was no way that I could print in one go as my print bed is smaller than the length of the screen, so I needed to design a more modular enclosure.

All parts were able to be printed on a 220mm x 220mm bed.

I assembled the parts carefully around the screen using super glue & then plastic weld solvent on the joins after masking off the glass on the screen but using the screen as a former.

I didn't want to glue everything up without the screen in place as this allowed for fine tuning of the fit.

All gluing & solvent weld was used in unseen areas at the back & I did only 1 side at a time & waited for it to cure before proceeding, plus also keep a descent weight applied with the front finished face downwards to stop any possible twisting.

The measurements I used were taken directly from my display, they may or may not be the same as any others but I have included the FreeCAD files in case they need to be customised.

I also suggest fitting all the rear brackets & braces dry to the screen to make sure of fit before then gluing up the cross braces.

Along with the individual 4 corners & the separate Left & Right sides, you will need to print:

2x TopBott (I found these the same measurements on my screen)

2x Rear Bracket

2x Cross Brace

4x Spacers

2x Stands (if req'd)

Mounting hardware is:

4x M3x30mm bolts + 4x M3 washers to attach through rear bracket & spacer, through PCB mounting hole and in to back of each corner piece.

4x M3x25mm bolts + 8x M3 washers + 4x M3 nuts to attach the stands if used.
