  • 3D printing has some unique properties that let us design compliant mechanisms in new ways. This week I played around with the idea to make some fun and functional objects!

    Cool designs! Note that compliant mechanism are often one piece (i.e. monolithic), but they don't have to be. (The core is the flexibility through elastic deformation). Especially for FDM, you can break up your designs in to multiple parts to optimize for strength or build direction.

      Good point! I enjoy the challenge of designing parts that print in place, but sometimes splitting up a print has clear advantages

    Can we get a part 2 for compliant mechanisms? Since this video showed more basic mechanisms, I think there should be a follow-up that shows some more complex mechanisms; for example, the elephant shown in Veritasium's video, where there's a lot of compliant parts to the entire mechanism, but there's only a single pivot point at the end of the elephant's trunk that doesn't move laterally. Then maybe follow that video up with advanced mechanisms, like the single piece 2dof vectoring motor/engine mount.

  • @ralexcraft990
