How to calibrate 3D printed thread for direct use

large_preview_thumb.jpg

Nowadays I am doing a lot of works which needs to be fixed by bolts. It is necessary to figure out how to modeling threads to fix the bolts directly. I make this calibration test plate which can help you find out the parameter suitable for your 3D printer.

This is not the first attempt but I think it is a good example to get new ideas to make things smooth. I wish someone will get some idea through the smallest thing. Also, I hope they will share the experience with us making the world a better place.

Don’t forget to subscribe to this channel. Your support is my best happiness. I will continue to update the video. I hope it will give you some help. Thank you very much.

I use Fusion 360 for modeling. The thread uses ISO format.

Push the top and bottom surface of thread according to the number indicated left side. No other modification.

Material: PLA

Printing temperature: 200 C

Bed temperature: 60 C

Layer height: 0.2 mm
