Custom Enclosure Design Services This project focuses on the design of custom electronic enclosures optimized for 3D printing. The objective is to create enclosures that are not only visually clean but also functionally engineered for PCB mounting, cable management, ventilation, heat dissipation, and easy assembly. Each enclosure is developed as a manufacturing-ready 3D model, considering real-world constraints such as printer tolerances, wall thickness, snap-fit behavior, and screw boss strength. Design Considerations for 3D Printing The enclosure is designed specifically for FDM / SLA 3D printing , with attention to: Uniform wall thickness for strength and print quality Proper fillets and chamfers to avoid stress concentration Draft-free geometry suitable for both printing and molding Optimized part orientation to reduce supports Tolerance allowances for snap-fits and screw joints Internal features such as PCB standoffs, screw bosses, and alignment ribs are positione...

Hi there, This post explains how to create a Perpendicular Motion Transfer Mechanism Assembly using SolidWorks. This mechanism effectively transfers motion between perpendicular axes and involves designing and assembling parts like Fixed Frame Link, Connecting Rod, Arm, Socket, and Handle . Steps to Create Perpendicular Motion Transfer Mechanism Assembly Part Design Design the following components individually using SolidWorks: Fixed Frame Link : Base structure for motion transfer setup. Connecting Rod : Cylindrical or rectangular rod to connect moving components. Arm : Rotational link that attaches to the connecting rod for motion transfer. Socket : A rotational housing for holding the arm pivot joint. Handle : Input lever to initiate motion. Use features like Extrude Boss/Base , Revolve , Fillet , and Cut for precise modeling of each part. Start Assembly Open a new Assembly file in SolidWorks. Insert the Fixed Frame Link first as the base. Insert an...

Here’s an easy-to-follow method to create a hinge mount assembly using SolidWorks. If you’re looking for precise design and smooth functioning of your hinge, this guide ensures efficiency and accuracy. Steps to Create Hinge Mount Assembly in SolidWorks Part Design Start by designing individual parts: hinge base, hinge leaf, and pin. Use extrude, revolve, and fillet features to model each component. Hole Wizard for Pin Alignment Use the Hole Wizard to create matching holes on the hinge leaves. Ensure proper clearance for the pin to fit and rotate smoothly. Assemble the Components Open a new Assembly file. Insert the hinge leaves and pin into the assembly environment. Add Mates for Motion Use Concentric Mate to align the pin with the holes of the hinge leaves. Apply Coincident Mate to align the hinge faces properly. Add Limit Angle Mate to restrict the hinge's rotation range (e.g., 0° to 180°). Verify Motion Use the Move Component tool to te...
