  • Mike Mead, head judge of cartridgesave.co.uk's 2014 3D Print Cup, provides a masterclass demonstrating the different ways you can create moveable parts within a 3D print.
    The tutorial includes tips on how to create hinges, ball and sockets, sliders and links.

    Everywhere in this vid where you say “tolerance” you should say “clearance”. Clearance between parts is what you need, tolerance is how much the part can vary in size and still be acceptable.

      Thank you! So, to what extent is language/terminology important? Well, it depends on context. Sometimes it's fine to be "loose" in usage: regardless of labels, does one know enough to achieve the desired result? Clearly, Mike understands things in practices. Kudos:) BUT in the context of engineering (and perhaps a "master" class), "proper" terminology is valuable, especially when communicating ideas to others. "Clearance", "tolerance", (and "precision") have specific definitions. Thx again for clearing things up for the reader. For the record, "precision" relates to repeatability. Finally, "tolerance" is misused so often that some of us are compelled to comment!:) OK, y'all can carry on, now:)...

      I was thinking something similar and I'm not an engineer. I also wondered if allowance would have fit as well, however I think allowance is an allowed tolerance, so much for that thought. Then I wondered if terminology and acceptable terminology varied by location. All and all, for me, its an informative video. I am however no sure what my clearances will need to be, of course I was just looking to see if it can be done.

    How DO you get the support material out from the axel on the van? Why do you talk about it and then not show how you did it? This only show's a few considerations when designing for making moveable parts. The title of the video should be design considerations for making 3D printed moveable parts, not 3D Priniting: how to make moveable parts.

    Do you need to put the support material in when creating it or will most 3d printers put them in by themselves?

    • @WinterEC
      @WinterEC 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Jake M Most software will put support material in itself, but this is what makes or breaks the print, so it's often best to manually create support.

    @0623kaboom 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    btw you have the nut on the bolt shaft pictured .. the slope on bolts and screws is to the bottom ... not the top .. the flat is at the top .. the reason for this is the slant allows the bolt to self center and the flat allows the bolt to hold tight against extraction .. if the slant was on top it would be more likely to fail by stripping and sliding out ..

      ok you did show how to make movable parts ... in a few different ways ... but you didnt actually SHOW the setup in the cad program .. you showed a starter NOT the finished item until you demo'd that at the end ... this is more a review of 3d printing joints NOT a HOW TO ...

    This is not a "how-to" video as the title suggests. It's more of a show-and-tell video on different types of hinges/moveable parts. This is what they call click-bait.

  • @HelenaOfDetroit
    @HelenaOfDetroit 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    How much tolerance is needed between parts that move though? Let's say I had a simple piece that is supposed to slide into a groove in another piece. How much smaller do I need to make the sliding piece to fit easily into the grooved piece?
    I'm having trouble finding the answer to this question. Any help?

      I still encourage you to make your own test, because this can change depending on your 3d printer/setting. My test was: a 5mm diameter cylinder and a hole going from 5.3mm to 5.0mm diameter in 0.05mm increment to see where the fit was perfect.

    Also where is your Teflon tube for the filament you can't just have the filament dangling about it goes through a tube

    • @aznxinva5ian
      @aznxinva5ian 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +iCloud It's a direct drive extruder, meaning the motor is mounted on the extruder and forces the filament through the hotend. You're thinking of a Bowden style extruder.

    • @1999danie
      @1999danie 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Quoc Tran no. No I'm not I have two up printers you should have a Teflon tube that goes between the filament spool holder and the extruder as a way of tensioning the filament and not causing pulsations on the extruder by the extruder head moving and having to drag the filament of the spool sometimes but then when the filament is slack there is no tension on it so it extrudes normally, use the Teflon tube !

    • @aznxinva5ian
      @aznxinva5ian 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +iCloud That makes sense. I'll have to check it out.

    • @sttrife
      @sttrife 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +iCloud I think a bigger issue might be that the axis with the extruder might have problems moving smoothly with the pulsations that you describe. The extruder gear usually clamps tight on the filament and will extrude the correct amount, even with some tension. Unless there is so much tension that the motor starts losing steps or it starts grinding the filament, but that really doesn't happen with those little jerks if you have a decent extruder with a decent motor (geared with hobbed bolt or something like that). So it's more about the axis being able to move smoothly than the extruder having problems with differences in tensions...

    All the stuff I print is movable I mean how else can you print something if you have to move the 3d printer in order to have room to print something else?
    if I cant move what I print my house would be filled with floating plastic objects that just won't move no matter how hard I hit it with a sledgehammer.
    i can make "mechanical moving" parts at least those don't float around..

    Great video! All these haters in the comments.. smh. How long do you want the video to be, 2 hours?? Sure, there's a lot more to be covered in terms of the details on clearance and support materials, but you'll have to figure that out on your own machines! The people who are complaining are too lazy to start up their own 3d printers and do some empirical testing.
