IGB Einheitsdiesel renew

Achim Ribbe
WIP- starting the CAD design.

Achim Ribbe
Things moving forward.

Where do you intend to have this 3d printed if you don't mind saying?

I wish somebody had a good 3d printer down the street, and I could actually produce stuff with ease. :|

Achim Ribbe
I do it on my own. I have a 3D Printer.
If you want something printed, I can help. A small price, postage and packaging. This is not a problem.

Achim Ribbe
Print test of the first assembly group. Okay some minor issues to do a better print result. I am happy with the first "shot".

Olivier
Hallo Achim
What material do you use with your 3D printer? Styrene, resin ? And how do you create the 'mould' ? Do you need to scan original parts ?

Bogicevic Vladimir
Fantastic work, Achim.

Joerg R.
klasse gemacht bis jetzt!!!
Konstruirst du auch die fehlende Lenkung?

Alec K
Following 👍

Achim Ribbe
The idea is to create the complete chassis. So that you can build the several variants of IBG. The idea behind is to print and sell the chassis. Thats the idea. At Olivier I use the Nuts and Bolts No42 for Reference. And print the STL-Parts on my Eleego Mars Pro in Resin

Treehugger
I've seen 3d parts for sale, looking similar to what is seen in photo 12, where the 3d printed parts are sort of stacked diagonally of sorts. Why is this an advantage? Does it have anything to do with making more cleaner surfaces?

Achim Ribbe
Hello Treehugger...well the "thickness" is growing when you place the part under a angel. When you prepare the model for printing you slice the part. Its like cutting bread. When you cut under 90° to the middleaxis of the bread you will get a circled slice. When you cut under 45° you get a ellipsed slice which is wider. and wider means a better result in printing.

Olivier
And sometimes you cut your finger too...
Will you also produce other parts with this great machine of yours ? Maybe some internal parts for radio cars or ambulances ?

Achim Ribbe
Yes .. tell me and I check it.

Rui S
That looks great, just waiting to see the price... 😎

Achim Ribbe
Sooo...Iam very happy so far. First shot and hit. But I also see some changes to get a better result.

Joerg R.
Tolle Arbeit👍👍

Bogicevic Vladimir
Achim, realy nice. Which printer do you use?

Achim Ribbe
Hello Mates. Thanks for your comments. I am using the Mars Elegoo Pro 3D-Printer. The price is around 200 Euro. BUT...you also need a expierence in designing parts. And that is something you cant buy or put it in a app. You can buy models to print. Sure.. but that was not in my intention. I wanna create things on my own. I was working more then 30 years in the field of designing molds and dies. And this is now a BIG plus in the things I do.

Bogicevic Vladimir
Thank you Achim. I will check it out.

Achim Ribbe
WIP. I assembled the parts. It looks really good to me. I very pleased with the prototype. The steering will need more "air"

Joerg R.
Ich will nicht kritisieren, du machst da eine tolle Arbeit! Aber die Reifenlauffläche erscheint mir etwas zu gerade. Sollte die nicht etwas mehr gebogen sein? Oder täuscht das auf den Bildern?
Gruss
Jörg

Achim Ribbe
Hallo Jörg, ich bin immer dankbar für Kritik und Anmerkungen, solange sie sachlich sind. Denn nur so lernt man und kann sich verbessern. Ich weiss nicht ob die Reifen auf den Laufflächen "runder" sind. Ich bin neu in der Branche der Refenhersteller 🙂)

Achim Ribbe
So I made a little Progress.

Achim Ribbe
So. A little update. I hope I can complet the CAD End of August. Then I assembly and hopefully I could place some Variants on my "Base".

Joerg R.
Das wird was ganz tolles. Willst du das ganze Fahrzeug neu zeichnen?

Achim Ribbe
Yes I will do a complete building for the Standard Lorry and then may be will start on the variants. The idea is to offer a better build then the IGB Sets. And try to sell it...

Achim Ribbe
State of the design for the standard diesel
So far so good. Tomorrow the direction indicators and the rearview mirror. Then the goal BASIS vehicle has been reached
Stand der Konstruktion für den Einheitsdiesel.😊
Soweit so gut. Morgen noch die Richtunganzeiger und den Rückspiegel. Dann ist das Ziel BASIS-Fahrzeug erreicht

Joerg R.
Klasse Achim, freue mich schon auf das Ergebnis👍👍
Meinst du, wir könnten mal telefonieren?
Gruss
Jörg

Achim Ribbe
So ....
the base design is done. The only thing missing is the trailer. Now the 3D prints atr running. That includes some loops of corrections.
And some things are just too figurative in the end. The tubes of the direction indicators on the left and right were much too thin. I have to increse the diameter on that. One area in the footwell was also much too thin. But step by step I will reach finally my goal

Achim Ribbe
Hallo Jörg, klar können wir uns mal austauschen. Du kannst mir eine Notiz schicken an norn(at)gmx.com.

Alec K
Great progress. This will be excellent 👍

Walton
Great work !! 3D print opens so much opportunities !

Achim Ribbe
Thx Mates. Yes. We are living in the golden age of modeling.

Achim Ribbe
CAD is 95% ready. I start printing

Alec K
Wow! The print looks very good 👍

Achim Ribbe
Okay. Its done so far. 100% scratch. Painted with Tamiya Acrylics. Vallejo and Oil.

Olivier
Quite a nice result. Well done.

Alec K
Amazing result! Very impressive 👍

Joerg R.
Geniale Arbeit, Achim, einfach genial

Nicolas M.
Absolutely stunning technical work !
Would you share the 3Dprint files ?
