quick clip for acoustic ceiling tile for sound enclosure

thingiverse

We needed to rapidly construct a noise enclosure for our office's 3D printer right away. I swiftly assembled a straightforward noise enclosure utilizing acoustic ceiling tiles secured by these fastening clips. These easy push-on clips come equipped with sharp teeth to firmly grip in place. They are designed for tiles that are 5/8 of an inch thick, but my tiles turned out to be about 0.555 inches thick instead. To guarantee secure retention, it is essential to properly align the clips before attaching them. Each STL file includes six fastening clips by default. As part of the project, I constructed an open-box enclosure that was placed over the printer. To seal any gaps that may have been present, I utilized duct tape liberally. Additionally, I positioned a tile underneath the printer to prevent resonance from occurring when it rested on the table beneath. Following completion of the enclosure, someone left a comment indicating that there were zero sounds coming from the 3D printer.
