Autodesk University 2023 3D Printed Chip

 I created an Autodesk University chip I plan to hand out during the week of AU. I used AutoCAD solids to create the model. As for the QR code, I converted the QR code image to DXF and cleaned it up in AutoCAD. I tested the QR code with my smartphone while in AutoCAD and then in the Bambu Lab Studio slicer software. It worked so now to 3D print the model and test the QR code. I used Numakers PLA filament in three colors. The QR code works but I feel it can be improved. More to come!

Here are a few updated 3D prints. I used a 0.2 mm print nozzle for better accuracy. The downfall, it took twice as long to print compared to using the 0.4mm print nozzle.

3D Printed Miniature Traffic Control Box

I created a miniature traffic control box for a co-worker who is into miniature LED stop lights. The box will house the electronic controllers for the LED stop lights. The model was created in AutoCAD 2024 with 3D Solids then exported to a stereolithography (STL) file for slicing in the Bambu Lab software. I used yellow Numakers PLA+ filament. Total print time was around 14.5 hours. I had to make a few adjustments to the print speed and temperature to use the Numakers PLA+ filament.
