Design Brief: Modular 3D-Printed Scraper, Brush and Vacuum Nozzle for a 3D Printer
A Brush with Depth
Project Overview:
3D printing leaves purge lines and support remnants on the build plate.
Removing them is important in preparing the printer for the next print.
Plugging and unplugging mobile devices is cumbersome. Using Standby mode with a plug can lead to charge port damage and is in elegant.
Users may want an elegant solution for preparing their print bed for the next print.
Project Goal:
Design and produce a modular fully 3D printed solution for preparing a 3D printer for the next print.
Key Objectives:
Allow scrapping of 3D printing remnants from the bed of a printer.
Allow interchangeable modules for 3D printer preparation tasks such as removing adhered parts and removing small particles.
Target Audience:
FDM 3D printer users and customers who want a simple tool for cleaning a workspace.
Objective:
Design a sleek and functional stand to hold the MagSafe charger securely and stylishly.
Specifications:
Assembly: Modules screwed onto a handle.
Materials: PETG, ABS, or ASA
Aesthetic: Capitalizes on the use of magnets to produce a floating aesthetic.
Notable Outcome:
The Brush is entirely 3D printed and the endcap can be twisted off after printing to free the ends of the bristles.
