      It's a really fun project! As I mentioned in another comment, I've been experimenting with 3D printed drivers on and off for quite a while. Got a few that actually played and made sound, but nothing this good!
      I think I need to get my hands on some softer TPU.
      Also... do you know how hard it is to search for "3D printed speaker"? All you get is enclosures. LOL Even searching for printed drivers didn't get me much that was on this level.

    What a great proof of concept! I am totally inspired.

The ability to print the spider and surround in flexible TPU is incredible. Yes, yes, yes. I've got a CNC coil winding machine and should be able to make an efficient speaker motor. I'm thinking of experimenting with vacuum forming the cone from a 3d printed mold.

    Interesting topic, but I feel like this video only scratched the surface despite its length: why are the magnets arranged like that (e.g. at 2:10 repelling each other?)? Why are there washers in between? What are the washers on the outside (2:40) doing? Where is the magnet wire fed through, how is it strain-relieved (so it can't pull on the cone)? What DSP are you using, how did you set it up?
    So many questions, such montage, few answers ;)

    if you connect the coil terminals directly to a fixed point, they will break from vibration. Factory speakers therefore use a braided stocking made of very thin wires.

    • @Polymate3D
      @Polymate3D 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Tinsel wires would be a nice extra that some later designs may need to implement. In these designed the driver moves at best +/-2mm and the wire is 0.17mm so rather thin. Testing of previous drivers with 200+ hours use have shown zero issue, but as it becomes thicker and more movement, 100% agree :)

  • @pr0xZen
    @pr0xZen 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Really awesome project! Good value too, *IF* you already have the filaments. If you need to buy 2-3 different rolls of filament you otherwise don't need, and especially if your printer isn't rigged for flexibles already, then the value aspect goes out the 5th floor window. But that's the reality of a very large portion of _most_ projects. IMO it's more of a learning and mastering type of deal, than bottom line value thing. And that's absolutely fine as long as you go in understanding and accepting that, as with most other hobbies and learning opportunities :)

    • @Polymate3D
      @Polymate3D 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed. For many the concern is purchasing a whole real of TPU. Luckily you can get samples of 5M to 20M fairly easily. A FD52 driver uses approximately 3M of TPU for each one, so a 10M or 20M sample will do the job for that. FD52 also uses PETG for the chassis and cone, as does some of my other designs, and I have also done FD51-4OS which was done with PLA. A lot of these early designs where focus around as easy a entry point as possible :)

      Actually there’s a solution for that! There’s a post processor called Arc Welder that will take the gcode your slicer makes and replace curves made of many small lines into actual arc commands. Just have to make sure you have arc support enabled in Marlin (may be on by default or may need to recompile, but it’s just a single flag if you need to). Google Hackaday Arc Welder for a good overview article. I think there’s even a post processing plugin for Cura so so it right at export, otherwise you just manually process your exported gcode.

    Print conductive layers and you could also make the voice coil

    Cool video man! Totally didn't expect your music taste, but I like it! Also, where did you get that vest? It looks super comfy

    The best test for speaker sound quality is to play white noise with the calibration microphone about an inch away from the driver pointed at the center. Better if you can record it in a foam box to completely deaden everything.
    You then open up the recording of white noise into a DAW with a frequency analyzer. That should give you a very good estimate as to how the speaker would sound like as opposed to listening to how it sounds like through a video.

    The only thing left would be managing to print the copper coil with conductive filament & duel extruder or auto wire imbedder.

    Awesome job Thomas!
    It's awesome you also know about acoustics and DSP, plenty enough for this project.
    In the sound demo it seemed that the low-end was not super clean, it might be worth checking again distortion levels and rub&buzz and boost more selectively the low end.
    You didn't share too much details about which DSP board you're using tho, I'll look in your previous videos.
    Nowadays there's a few Raspberry Pi sound cards with Sigma DSP built-in and remain affordable, I wonder it if was one of them.

      @MadeWithLayers  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ooh, those sound cards sound interesting! Do you happen to know what they're called?
      The DSP I used is a simple ADAU1701, which you can get on the little board I show for about $15. May need to do a separate video on it!

    I missed something here, and the description. How does the driver even work? I was unaware there was anything else even as close to usable as the common moving-coil in a magnetic circuit gap.

    would it make sense to use flexible filament like tpu? You could not only use it as an membrane but also as a sealing solution!

    What I learned from this video: A nicely tuned DSP gives you sub bass and less reverb.

  • @CountDoucheula
    @CountDoucheula 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Would there be any way to incorporate printing this using capacitive filament into something like a Pallette 2 so that it doesn't need wires internally?

    Hmmm. It seems like it could be a good solution for an outdoor speaker that can be left outside, if printed in petg rather than pla for the hard parts, not sure how tpu will stand up to uv exposure though.
