RECORD LOCATED / 2026.09.01

Logo gear strength, clearance, and surface-quality tuning

The gear record keeps the mechanical questions visible: finished clearance, free motion, first-layer stringing, small lettering, shell strength, top-surface quality, and whether the assembly remains usable after printing.

TECHNICAL NOTES///

Moving logo-gear study balancing strength, clearance, lettering, and surface quality.

PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE VIEW3D Printing / project

GOALProduce a strong moving gear assembly that is free rather than fused or sloppy.

STEPS

Measure the intended clearance in the model.
Print a small clearance coupon.
Check free motion after cooling.
Record actual finished clearance and surface quality.
Adjust one dimension or process variable per revision.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Do not judge clearance while the part is still warm.
Separate first-layer artifacts from model clearance.

RESULTNeeds retest; an observed print moved but was slightly loose.
