Test for Bending a Clip of 3D Printed Pen Cap

thingiverse

This is the test data for bending a clip of 3D printed pen cap. ## Features The pen cap with the clip already designed can be used immediately after 3D printing. However, there are three problems as follows. - stringing - removal of support material - insufficient strength. On the other hand, the pen cap with poorly designed clips requires heating with a device such as a lighter or burner to soften the area where the clip hits the bend.Then the former design problem can be solved and 3D printed. In particular, the strength at the base of the clip is increased because the direction of stacking and the shape of the clip match. ## Size Inner diameter: 10.0 mm Depth of the cap: 45mm Thick: 1.0 mm This pen cap can be attached to Zebra Mackee. ## Thing Files You can download files in three different formats.
