Sept, 2024 BPM Microsystems SM84UP And The Data IO TOP84PLC Aries Electronics 1110832 Inserts
The two adapters uses the Aries Electronics 84-537-21 Socket, I think there are other adapters that use the same socket.
https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/aries-electronics/84-537-21/4822 $120 for the set.
You can Find the SM84UP with out the inserts relatively cheap and people seem to want your left arm for one complete with the 7 inserts/plates.

These Are generally out of stock everyplace and over $120 for some plastic… So why not just 3D Print them.
I wanted the Numbers to be inset and different color so using the BambuLab X1C Ams this was accomplished by having multiple objects. In the slicer make 1 Object black one white or other combination of colors.
Time Lapse Of Print 3 Hour Multi Color Print.
Part 1: Finished Printing On the Bambu Lab X1C
Part 2 Parts Removed Form Build Plate
Part 3 Removing Supports Form Prints
With all the Supports removed, Prototype I will need to find a way to make the support transition cleaner maybe use PETG as the support material.
I’m currently waiting for the right deal on an SM84up Adapter, so I haven’t tested the fit yet. However, the dimensions are precise, and I’m confident they will be a perfect fit. I will update when i get a SM84UP Adapter.
I received my SN84Up Adapter, Initial test fit was a let down! But with some effort I was able to get all the dementions corrected. Lesson learned never trust the manufactures drawings in the data sheet always measure the actual part.
My version of these Inserts improves on the original in two key ways:
Larger text and index marker for easier readability.
Embedded text and pin-one index that won’t rub off with use, unlike the originals.
Heavier Duty Edges
I have Tested and Made the Corrections Required Photos of Final Set.
Installed With the PressurePlate You Flip the Pressure Plate to Use on PLCC 32
I’ve run each insert over the last few months with chips from various manufacturers, and they all fit perfectly.
