Recommended Printer Types:
โ
FDM (Filament-Based) Printers โ Best for larger prints, more durable
โ
Resin (SLA/DLP) Printers โ Best for high detail, smoother surface
๐น FDM Printer Settings (PLA, PETG, ABS)
Layer Height: 0.12mm โ 0.2mm (higher detail = lower layer height)
Infill: 15-25% (for durability without excessive filament use)
Wall Thickness: 2-3 shells for strong outer walls
s: Required for overhangs, especially under the cockpit area
Bed Adhesion: Use a brim or raft if needed (especially for ABS)
Print Speed: 50-70mm/s for best balance of speed & quality
Nozzle Size: 0.4mm (standard) or 0.2mm (for ultra-fine details)
โ ๏ธ Notes for FDM Printing:
If using ABS, print in an enclosed chamber to avoid warping.
For best detail, slow down outer wall speed to 30-40mm/s.
Print the Egg Mobile body separately from small details for cleaner prints.
๐น Resin Printer Settings (SLA/DLP/MSLA)
Layer Height: 0.025mm โ 0.05mm (for ultra-smooth details)
s: Auto-generate & manually adjust for delicate parts
Exposure Time: Follow resin manufacturer guidelines
Lift Speed: 2-3mm/s to prevent print failures
Curing: Wash with isopropyl alcohol & cure under UV for ~2-5 minutes
โ ๏ธ Notes for Resin Printing:
Hollow out large parts to reduce resin usage and add drain holes.
Use flexible s to prevent delicate parts from breaking.
If printing small, increase anti-aliasing for smoother edges.
๐น Assembly & Post-Processing
1๏ธโฃ Remove s Carefully โ Use flush cutters for FDM, warm water soak for resin
2๏ธโฃ Sanding & Smoothing โ
FDM: Use 220+ grit sandpaper, then prime & paint
Resin: Wet sand if needed, then cure fully
3๏ธโฃ Painting (Optional) โ Acrylics or airbrushing for a game-accurate look
4๏ธโฃ Assembly (If Multi-Part Print) โ Use super glue or epoxy to attach pieces
๐ก Customization Tips:
Scale the model up/down before slicing to fit your printer.
If using a dual-extruder FDM printer, print with multi-color filament for built-in details!
๐ Follow these settings for the best results & enjoy your Egg Mobile print! ๐ฎ
