Easily Create Textures

One STL, Endless Possibilities

With ideaMaker Texture, users can easily create different iterations of the same STL model by applying different patterns to the selected model’s surface. It works by creating a concave or convex surface on the designated model according to the values of an image’s greyscale.

Skip lengthy CAD processing

After the user selects an image with the desired pattern, ideaMaker will automatically apply the image across the surface of the model and generate the 3D texture. Users can then adjust the settings to the tweak the texture’s specifications to meet their requirements. More textures are available in ideaMaker Library.

Advanced Toolset for Support Editing

ideaMaker is a 3D slicing software that automatically generates support structure while providing a set of tools for manual editing and advanced purposes. Some examples include PVA support, creating a more stable support structure, creating an easy break-away structure, and reducing abundant support.

An Easy Interface and A Smooth Editing Process

Users can begin adding or removing support structures in two clicks. ideaMaker’s intuitive user interface allows users to process support structure smoothly, even from angels and different views.

Using Automatic Parameters for Optimization

One Click to Optimize

Powered by sophisticated algorithms, ideaMaker automatically computes the best slicing settings for users. Users can enable automatic optimization with one click, instead of having to manually inspect and optimize multiple parameters.

Balance Cost and Time Without Sacrificing Surface Quality

ideaMaker uses algorithms to compute the slicing parameters for layer height, infill structure, and support structure. By adapting parameters accordingly, the filament consumption and printing time decrease while surface quality is maintained.

Variable Setting for Selected Region

3D printing, as a type of activity, makes it possible to create not only decorative crafts and toys, but also more complex things. I love that a 3D printer allows you to make quick prototypes of models that used to take an incredible amount of time and money to produce. And many ideas and technical solutions received a second wind.

I want to introduce to the respected community 3dtoday Gen6 is a miniature power generator.

This generator was developed as a bench prototype for one of the alternative energy projects.

All bearing and body parts are 3D printed. The generator is useful to everyone who is interested in the topic of energy. For example, in small camping wind and hydro generators. With minor modifications to the fasteners, it can be used as a bicycle generator. Also, as a wind generator, it can provide autonomous power for all kinds of remote electronic devices (for example, video cameras and Wi-Fi access points, LoRa systems, and so on).

Features:

1. Rotor .

Its magnetic system is made in the form of Halbach-assembly (Halbach array). This provided two benefits. First, there is no need for a magnetic circuit. Secondly, the Halbach assembly is a kind of analogue of a lens for a magnetic field. That is, on one side of the assembly, the magnetic field is almost absent, and on the reverse side, the field intensity is twice as high (relative to a single magnet and for ideal conditions). The disadvantage of this method of assembling the magnetic system of the generator is that it requires twice the number of magnets relative to the number of poles. In total, there are 16 neodymium magnets 20X5x5 N42 in the rotor, that is, 8 poles.

For more details about the Halbach assembly, see my video 'Kinetic Generator Powerbank'.

2.

Stator.

There are 8 identical spools on the printed base. Two coils fall on one pair of poles in such a way that two magnets with different poles pass the active conductors of the same coil at the same time. That is, the distance between the active parts of the coils (more precisely, their centers) is equal to the pitch of the rotor poles. The coils are assembled in pairs and molded in such a way that part of one coil enters the center of the second. Thus, we can say that this is a 2-phase generator with a rotor on a magnetic Halbach assembly.

Next, paired and unpaired coils are connected in series. And the voltage on the coils is summarized after two diode bridges.

Coils are wound with 0.2mm wire, but other diameters are also available. Please note that to obtain the desired voltage, you may need to add a multiplier, such as a planetary type. I am sure that for 3D printers this will not be a problem. ;)

Shaft 5 mm, magnets NdFeB 20X5X5mm N42 16 pcs.

Generator dimensions 60X45 mm without shaft length, weight 260 grams.

Testing is still ahead, I will report the results a little later.

3.

Assembly order.

After all parts of the generator are printed, the compound rotor is assembled first. We pay attention to the correct assembly of magnets. Next, insert the shaft into the rotor. After that, we put the rotor in the holder of the stator coils. This will make it easier to assemble the stator and mold the coils. Forming coils is not a difficult task, but requires the application of physical strength, so I had to strain.

(Based on the fact that you have already wound the coils and wrapped them with fluoroplastic tape)

After that, we put the bearings on the shaft, stator stops and put on the body parts - first the central part, and then the upper and lower covers.

Generator ready!

You can find all print files on my page. If you have questions - you are welcome. But first - to Ampère and Oersted. :D

And a few more words about the creative life of Ukraine.
