Qidi Avatar heat chamber for ABS

thingiverse

A climate-controlled chamber maintains the build area warm and minimizes ventilation. To keep my ABS prints warm and stable, I sealed the gap on the back of the acrylic cover above my printer. The gap allows filament and cables to enter from behind, so I extended the coverage accordingly. Two printed parts (sideA and sideB) and an extra overhead transparency (DIN A4-sized) are glued to the acrylic cover for added warmth and stability. These thin layers should print transparently, revealing intricate lattice patterns and logos. To prevent filament supply issues during printing, I added a supporting bridge between the printer's moving parts and the acrylic structure. This bridge keeps the filament from being pulled down too far, reducing noise and collision risks. Designs were created using IceSL and Cura (3D logo creation software). Print Settings: * Printer: Qidi Avatar IV * Rafts: No * Supports: No * Resolution: 0.2mm layer height * Infill: No Notes: The part was printed in ABS, and its size should minimize warping due to its low height. Post-Printing: Obtain a transparency sheet approximately the size of a DIN A4 page, in portrait orientation. Glue this sheet to each side, then attach both sides to the existing acrylic cover using white glue. Begin with one side, followed by the other, and finally secure it to the acrylic cover. While hot glue might also work, I used white glue, which took a long time to dry but achieved nearly transparent results. The bridge must be removable; do not apply adhesive to it.
