Neat that these can actually hold up that long! I guess the question is why though? It is so easy to make metal springs on your own that you don't have to worry about breaking from heating up or drying out due to the elements etc.
I'm so glad I found this. I was trying to figure out what metal springs I'd have to buy but this solves that since I can design the parts and then the springs after
I used a steam wand for clothes and amazingly, it worked! At removing the majority of the residue on aluminum. Unfortunately, while it's now "transparent", it's still sticky
I found this video looking for a way to merge items in OrcaSlicer. This video helped me figure it out. In OrcaSlicer do the exact same thing in this video except after you 'Select All' you right-click and select 'Assemble' instead of 'Merge'.
really don't understand what the machine is trying to do here, replace the pour method? Surely its easier just to pour the required amount from the bottles!!! ????
Amazing video... i will try to make make some of these springs, thanks. There goes a question, this springs can be used in airsoft guns projects ?? Thanks again
I'm not sure why anyone would even try this. The point of 3D printing is to have the ability to make customer things and to print things for cheaper than you can buy them. You can buy much more effective and durable springs and they are dirt cheap already. You can also buy them in unlimited sizes. There's zero point in attempting this...
Amazing design thanks a lot explaining all the steps as well. I am planning to do a similar version perhaps a smaller one. What would you suggest instead of using 6 ball bearings (seams a little bit overkill) ? Is there any alternative ? You gain a follower btw, thanks again.
I hate to be that guy that asks for improvements on an already good free project... but now with a configuration table you could effectively solve the error issues by providing several variations. I think in the case of the pump their are only so many degrees of control one would need. For me really the main variables are really just the tube size and having options (between 3 -> 12 ID). But again thank you this greatly simplified the process of learning to develop my own peristaltic pump.
I understand your comments but this has really no end. He literally shares the fusion360 files and you can go back in the history and literally change everything in the design.
Amazing! I'm currently working on a design where I want 10l/min flow and I was thinking about using 1" ID, but that seems not to be really needed with this design. I have a 390mm ID steel pipe that I was thinking about using as the pump body. But will probably build a prototype from this model first.
Hahaa, wonderful, the trouble in this house is that no one ever changes the roll, there is always an empty roll on the holder and a used roll on the shelf, what I need is a holder that shoots the empty roll at you and then grasses you up for being the last one to use it 😂
Well done. For those playing at home, the hose itself has a huge impact on the performance. To get higher flow (and tube lifetime), one can use e.g. PharMed BPT which is softer and more "springy" than silicon.
Hi, it's been about a year since I downloaded the super pump model, great job! and it was still a version with 2x3 bearings, then I downloaded a v85 with 2x8 bearings, but I had written somewhere what kind of bearings, pins and which tube to use for connecting the model, but I don't see this for this model and I'm not very friendly with Fusion :-) Thanks
