Proline dishwasher wheel and clip

thingiverse

This is a top tray replacement total wheel for a Proline model FDP48ASL-E dishwasher. Two wheels vanished under unknown circumstances. A total wheel comes in two parts: the wheel itself and the clip. After printing the two parts, first insert the clip into the wheel, then place the whole part on the tray (see pictures). First I designed both parts as they are, but I was not very pleased with the supports created by the slicer (Cura). So I decided to design the models with supports included. This is why there are two versions of the models: - Wheel and clip "as it", without support. If you choose to print these models, set the slicer for support creation. - Wheel and clip with supports included. If you choose to print these models, be sure to uncheck support creation in the slicer software. After printing, remove the supports (no tool required). Supports are compatible with 0.2 maximum layer height (vertical distance from the object is 0.2 mm). Thickness of the supports is 0.4 mm (size of my nozzle). For printing, I used ABS because of the hot working environment (hot washing and drying). I do not recommend PLA for this reason. I used 0.2 mm layer height because I did not care about a perfect look, but you can make it nicer using less than 0.2. Comments are welcome.
