Additive Manufacturing Certificate_C-3YLHRMENA7 (1) (1) (1).pdfRoller Chain Challenge
Objectives:
Roller Chain Modeling Challenge
Time - 4 Class Periods
Challenge Objective - 3D model a roller chain link of your own design and print a series of five links without print supports. When completed, the link should move as a roller-type chain.
Criteria
Must be designed in SolidWorks
Prepared in a slicer for additive manufacturing
3D printed in PLA filament
An individual link cannot take up more space than 20mm²
Test prints (no more than two links) are required before full prints (no more than 5 links)
No slicer-generated supports allowed
Presentation - Place on the Additive Manufacturing page.
(20%) Display challenge instructions (this document) for the viewer to understand the challenge.
(40%) Images and GIFs of modeling/design methods (showing yellow preview) of the link and assembled chain (SW and 3D printing)
(20%) ePort Posts - Images of the notebook designs, GIFs of modeling designs (in SolidWorks), slicer images and additional information
(20%) Final Design - a full print moving the links in your hands (as a GIF)

Objectives:

3D printed in PLA filament
The object cannot take up more space than as 80mm sphere.
Unlike the previous year, you must create a ring to fit over the vertical monitor support. Make sure to use a caliper to measure. Don’t rely on a peer’s measurements. The object will then somehow be attached to the side of the ring so that the other student from the other class can also display their project on the other side of the support.
Test prints for the ring support are required before full prints (this has to be displayed on the ePort).
Automotive Aerodynamics Final Print
This is the beginning of the print but had to stop it and add supports.
