Iveco Daily III mirror bracket to dashcam mount

Image
  Making use of an existing fixture to mount your dashcam or action camera just makes sense. mirror fig.1 mounting system fig.2 We have developed a bracket that slots into the rear view mirror bracket on Iveco Daily III vans. From this mount you can attach any action camera brackets you desire in order to mount a device off of this bracket. As demonstrated in fig.1, we have mounted a combined rear view mirror dashcam and screen with the additional help of a male pad that we have also designed. We offer the windscreen mirror dashcam mount  as a stand alone item. You can then use action camera arms to connect your device. fig.3 We also offer the windscreen mirror dashcam mount with a mirror bracket  as seen in fig.3, which will allow you to attach devices that are not compatible with action camera mounts. As you can see in the fig.1-2, we have used a mirror dashcam that normally fixes to an existing rear view mirror with elastic straps. We had tried this mirror on a number of different b

Light weight. Be easy to use. be strong enough to support a wide range of tools. fig 2.2 testing After some testing a final design was chosen with a base size taking up 40mm X 15mm of space each. Not bad at all! Stress testing was carried out till we ran out of things to hand off of our test handle, ending up with an  8kg per handle load,  a FoS (Factor of Safety) of 5. That is way more than is needed for this tiny littl

Custom customer solutions

From an evening chat to having a custom product in your hand the following day. The kind of thing formula 1 teams strive for can be achieved in just a few focused hours. This is a long read following the process of a custom build for a customer. Wit h people at home more than usual of late, we all find ourselves procrastinating and tackling all of those big projects we have sat around our workshops. One such task was Andy Green's (of Racing Green) A ermacchi which he is building up to compete in classic motorcycle racing. Among many other things discussed; the side fairing brackets needed looking into. The existing nylon ones he has fitted were profiled to an old fairing and appeared to have been held on by string through the drill hole and the fairing attached by an M6 bolt threaded into the nylon. Functional but we could do better. Design requirements Cutting or drilling the frame was out of the question ruling out any bolted or split pinned attaching devices. The fa
