3D Printed Parts


Parts are designed to be 3D printed with FDM based machines. STL files are oriented to print "as is". Parts are listed below with file name and description. Parts require tight tolerances that might need adjusting slice setting. Reference the suggested settings below.

 

Slice Settings

Use these settings as reference. Values listed were used in Ultimaker's CURA 3.X slicing software.

  • 0.2mm Layer Height / 0.4mm nozzle
  • 0.35mm Line Width (inner & outer widths)
  • 60mm/s printing speed
  • 20% infill
  • Supports: Yes

 

Cura Support Blockers

We added support blockers to the four standoffs on the Frame part, since we'll only need supports under the roof of the slide switch geometry. 

We can lower the support destiny to 10% using a zigzag pattern to make removal easier. 

Support Removal

To remove the supports, we used tweezers to fit between the zigzag pattern to grip and pull the supports away.
