Parametric Phone Case Design for All Brands

thingiverse

I decided to try out Fusion 360's parametric design feature on a phone case, one that would fit all brands of mobile phones. This case has a button opening on both sides and a camera opening on the front. You can enter parameters such as width, height, position, and button and camera widths to get started. The software will then generate a custom phone case for you. I attached an STL file of a Samsung S6 case made with this parametric design. I've tested the .f3D file on different phone models and it seems to work well so far. Here are the steps: Step 1: Click the link below to access or download the design file from here, but you'll need Fusion 360 software (and some knowledge about it) to work with the file. http://a360.co/2iGjN72 Step 2: Open the file, select Modify and Change Parameters, then enter values based on your phone's size. The listed values are for a Samsung S6 case in millimeters. Width = 67 (base plate width) Height = 140 (base plate height) RoundCornerRadius = 4 (round corner radius) ArcWidth = 2 (side bulge/curve) ArcHeight = 7 (side bulge height) LeftButton1Position(camera facing up) = 45 (measuring from the top of the base plate) LeftButton1Width = 15 (button opening width) RightButton1Position = 15 (measuring from the top of the base plate) RightButton1Width = 30 (button opening width) CameraPositionX = 25 (measuring from the left of the base plate) CameraPositionY = 15 (measuring from the top of the base plate) Camera Width = 28 (camera opening width) Camera Height = 15 (camera opening height) Notes: A) Be careful with button openings and overall phone case size, as entering wrong numbers may cause errors. Make a draft on paper before changing values. B) Note that Width and Height are not actual phone sizes but base plate dimensions. Use the following equation to determine them: Width + ArcWidth x 2 = phone width + clearance C) The default thickness is fixed at 2mm and cannot be changed, while button opening height is fixed by default and equals ArcHeight. Step 3: Try different values before printing the case and enjoy!
