Rozbudowałem generator kratek wentylacyjnych do druku 3D o regulowane żaluzje
Summary
The VentForge 2.2.0 update introduces a new feature for adjustable vent louvers controlled by a single handle. Each lobe is a separate element that interlocks with a synchronizing strip when assembled. The strip, bearing mechanism, and support rails print flat without supports. The mechanism relies on friction to hold its position. Users can configure the number, spacing, and depth of the louvers. Other parameters include the mechanism side, handle position, clearance, and viewing angle. The update also adds vertical reinforcement beams for long fixed louvers. It includes 3D warnings for risky settings and expands parameter ranges. The generator still creates standard vents, inspection covers, wall inserts, insect screens, and reverse louvers.
Key points
- The new adjustable louvers feature uses a single handle to control all louvers via a synchronizing strip.
- The mechanism, strip, and support rails print flat without the need for supports.
- Users can adjust the number, spacing, depth, and viewing angle of the louvers.
- The update adds vertical reinforcement beams for long fixed louvers and 3D warnings for risky settings.
- The generator supports multiple languages, including English, Polish, and German.
Timeline
VentForge 2.2.0 is released with adjustable louvers.
“W VentForge 2.2.0 skupiłem się na funkcji, o którą kilka osób pytało: regulowanych żaluzjach sterowanych jedną rączką.”
Background
VentForge is a parametric generator for 3D-printed vents, covers, and other parts.
Why it matters
The adjustable louvers allow users to fine-tune airflow and light for custom 3D-printed projects.
