The file 'Drive Chain Fully Parametric 3D Printer Model' is (scad,stl) file type, size is 1.6MB.

Summary

build your own drive chain with the parametric chain.scad script
or just use one of the exampels (test_chain.scad)

example 1

  • easy assembly / disassembly but not really strong
  • 35° overhang and 0.4mm gap make the print easy

example 2

  • same like example 1 but with a snap_fit hinge (stronger)

example 3

  • real strong chain but can not be decomposed

example 4

  • same like example 3 but the first chain-link have a snap_fit hinge

example 5

  • another easy assembly / disassembly chain hinge
  • this chain is bigger then the other examples

example gear 1

  • fits on example 1-4
  • 9 teeth
  • M4 hex_nut hole

example gear 2

  • fits on example 1-4
  • 20 teeth
  • M8 hex_nut hole

example gear 3

  • fits on example 1-4
  • 8 teeth
  • 5mm motor mount (need a M3 nut + screw to fix)

example gear 4

  • fits on example 5
  • 15 teeth
  • M6 hex_nut hole
