That's pretty interesting. I work for a company that makes coil springs and it would never occur to me to try and make them out of plastic. Do they tend to stretch or compress once they've been cycled a lot? One tip for your extension springs would be to print a theaded plug to go in the end with an attachment loop on it. Bending the coil up on the end always creates a stress point which ends up being the weak point. By threading a plug into the spring and pulling on that, you spread the stress over the coils it's threaded into.

I have my 3D printer set up in my bathroom. I print directly out of a dry box. This means the exposed segment of filament out of the dry box gets tons of moisture whenever I shower and stream fills the room. After a few days, with no exception from five different brands of PLA, all of them snap spontaneously into several pieces, leaving only a small segment connected to my extuder. Conclusion is that PLA gets real brittle when saturated with moisture.

I've been making these for years, but I've been using a space heater or heat gun (hair dryer works too but they tend to burn out faster) to gently heat the plastic as I coil it. I just used the chuck of the drill to hold the start of the filament. My issue is it takes a while to make them this way. Your way might be faster in terms of actual man hours (vs machine). I noticed that when I coiled the PLA cold I found the color would end up whitening and preserving the color is important for my application. I know this isn't really an issue for your purposes, but I'm wondering if the color would be restored during the baking process.

I am guessing petg will suffice but am not sure, I think pla is too brittle. The clips will be 3.5mm thick and width is not a consideration as they can be as wide as I need.

I wonder how this would work with flexibles? I use a lot of a material called PEBA, which is basically a Nylon derivitave. It's main feature is that it has very good energy return and fatigue resistance, plus retains it's properties down to -60c. Hell, I bet you could print a spring from PEBA... It wouldn't even need to be helical.

@PattysLab
@PattysLab 3 жыл бұрын
Well many 3d printed gadgets do for example use printed in place springs to open boxes activate mechinsmisms etc. Usually many are printed in pla. From what I experienced like someone already mentioned in the comments PLA tend to looks it's ability to spring back over time if you keep it under load for longer periods if time. Hence why I showed this concept. Think for example about cosplay props or movie props for which you can use a nylon spring instead of print in place or steel spring. These speings will also not rust. Metals springs are always better of course but you would extend this method of plastic prints to make even crazier springs (I mean in their shape). Also I'll come up with another video where I use one of the push springs in a magnetic sensor configuration the plastic spring will nog influence the sensor reading. But to really answer your question I don't know when to use both push and pull springs in the same part it's up to you to design a mechanism that can house both you could think about a crossbow or something like that that the bow could use a pull spring and the trigger mechanism could use a push spring :)

This video alone earned you a life and a subscribe from me. I was really curious on it 3d printed could make springs or not, and now I know. One quick question, let's say, instead of having the springs be that long, I wanted a push spring that was about half as long, but had about double the amount of resistance when compressed. Could the be done by increasing the width of the filament used, or by increasing the diameter of the spring?
@PattysLab
@PattysLab 2 жыл бұрын
First of all thank you :), stronger and springs can be made by decreasing the spring diameter or increasing the diameter of the filament let's say 2.85mm. You can use a stiffer material or change the angle of the helix, ie ending up with fewer windings. However if the material is stretcht to much you can go into plastic deformation and your spring wil be much shorter than it was before. My approach would be to take a good spring material like nylon and use a thicker material like the 2.85 filament and perhaps try out carbon or glass fiber filled nylons

Unfortunately PLA will tend to settle into a new shape if left over time in a stressed position. You're probably better off buying metal springs. Its not like tension and compression springs are not very common, or expensive.

A handy comment for everyone that does not use the metric system. 120°C = 250°F 160°C = 320°F 200°C = 390°F

Accurate conversion requires only the ability to add, subtract, double, and divide by ten any given numbers; these operations are probably the easiest mathematical operations possible for the minimally numerate. Therefore: - double (2x) the C value to get first intermediate result (FIR); - from the FIR, subtract one-tenth of the FIR to get the second intermediate result (SIR); - add 32 to SIR to get the conversion value in ºF.

I've used nylon in the test which is quite similar to weed trimmer line :), kapton tape probably from Amazon

@@PattysLab it would be interesting to see directly 3d printed springs working, if that would be possible 🤔 that they would work the same like the oven made ones.

next time you make spaghetti, wrap one around a pen or rod of some kind, to form a spring, and leave it to dry.
