Description
To tidy up the cable mess in my garage I needed Wallmount Holders for my E-Bike Chargers. The first one to make was the case for the Elby E-Bike Charger.
I designed two different Versions in Shapr3D:
1. Monochrome Version
with Text and BionX Logo embossed at the bottom. It is printable in one piece without supports in upright position on the print bed. The main power cable to the wall outlet is plugged in through the opening at the bottom after sliding the charger into the case.
(printing time 6h)
2. Colored version (MMU2):
This was tough to slice. I didn’t want supports and wanted as few as possible extruder changes because that’s what causes longer print time and possible error during print (MMU2 needs Baby sitting). If you find a better way to slice this one, please let me know.
I tried a lot of different versions and most of them failed. The new Prusa slicer version 2.6 and it’s ability to cut the model in two halves with passmarks was the solution that worked best for me. It has acceptable print time (5 hours versus 13 hours). The color print is even faster than the monochrome version now. Another advantage of printing two halves is that you get two perfect surfaces on the back and front (the areas placed on the print bed have the best surface qualitiy).
(printing time 5,5h)
Extruder 2 is loaded with Jet black filament
Extruder 5 uses Prusa orange.
I printed the models using Prusament PETG with 0,4mm nozzle and 0,2mm layer height for quality print and 15% gyroid infill.
Please show me your results and send me fotos of your makes. I like to see how you use this model. If you have ideas for improvement don’t hesitate to send them to me in the comments. I will try to incorporate your suggestions and will modify the model for special needs if you ask me to do so.
And of course a like ♥ or a rating ⭐ of the design are always welcome.
happy printing, clamikra
