Description
The original plastic clip has lost his plasticizer over the years and in the end it broke.
But to be honest, after more than 20 years of hot air, vibrations and any kind of chemical influence i would maybe have given up as well ^^
Thats why i rebuild it in CAD :-)
I slightly modified it, so that only one bracket is placed on top instead of two.
But at least my car just needs one.
The part number of the original Audi part is:
8D0201449M
As audi is listing on there webpage this part should fit the following models:
Audi A6/S6/Avant/Quattro/Allroad
Audi A4/S4/RS4/Avant/Quattro
I printed the clip on my Bambu Lab P1S with the following settings:
Material: PA6-CF from Princore in Black
Nozzle-Temp: 285°C
Bed-Temp: 90°C
Support: Yes (tree)
Nozzle: 0,4mm
Layer Height: 0,2mm
Infill: 15%
Wall Loops: 2
Bottom and Top Shell Layers: 4
Initial Layer Speed: 15-30mm/s
Outer Wall Speed: 30mm/s
Inner Wall Speed: 45mm/s
Infill Speed: 45mm/s
Travel Speed: 500mm/s
Fan Speed: 0-30%
Brim: No
Maybe you do not need to print it in PA6.
ABS or PETG could be enough.
But i wanted to test for the first time how difficult it is to print PA6-CF ^^
On the original Bambu textured PEI plate i had difficulties with the adhesion (also with the max bed temperature of 100°C).
Thats why i also have tried for the first time the Biqu CryoGrip Glacier buildplate and could directly succeed on the first try (also no problem with reduced bed temp).
The next issue was, that my model was let's say to accurate!
With material that has a fine texture all should be great, but the rough surface of the carbon fibre was in the end to tight.
So the model that i have uploaded here is scaled with the factor of 1.025
Maybe you can reduce it again if you print with ABS or PETG (when it should be to loose).
Just let me know.
