Basic Wind Turbine

A basic wind turbine design that can produce enough electricity to power a small LED light.

I managed to print all of the parts on a stock Ender 3 using PLA, so it should print just fine on any printer out there.

How to print:

• Material: PLA, PETG, ASA
• Layer Height: 0.16 - 0.2mm depending on how well your printer handles overhangs
• Infill: All parts but the rotor blades should be printed with 30% infill, the rotor blades should have 30% at the base and 5% from where the blade starts
• No supports are needed

Parts needed:

• x3 Short M3 Screws
• x1 24mm DC Motor with a 2mm shaft
• x1 32mm PVC Pipe
• x1 15x32mm Bearing

How to assemble:

Assembly of the rotor and the motor holder.

All parts should press-fit togheter after using a bit of force.

Final assembly.

Main_Back requires x3 M3 screws in order to properly attatch to Main_Hub. All other parts should press fit.

I would highly recommend gluing of the press-fitted parts togheter so that the turbine can withstand stronger winds.
