Challenge: To customise a original 3D Printed Box for a speaker.
Background: Since last school term our students have been involved in a significant sound lure project. This has took a considerable amount of our time and focus. For this project which is developing at a rapid pace we have recently completed the prototype of the speaker system that we will be using.
The 3D printer has a crucial role to play in the successful completion of the project as it involves creating an opportunity to water-proof and allow the combination of speakers and parts to be put together. In this example the speaker (which was a 0.5 watt speaker) was placed in a box that was previously designed as a potential housing box for the speaker system. The addition of a lid for the box had a significant circular hole
that was built into the lid of the box. This lid was for positioning of the speaker, which allowed the speaker to vibrate and project a sound that was clear and auidble.
In this example the lid of the box was only two mm thick as the students wanted to spend time considering whether or not it would work and its acceptable.
This print took fifteen minutes to complete and will be detailed shortly in more depth. The speaker shown is a recycled speaker.
