Description:
A plastic right triangle wedge shell design suitable for an injection mold process. A male X side and a female Y side that can be unsnapped or snapped together in any 90 degree configuration. The opposite and adjacent sides are 1.25" square. The hypotenuse side is a separate flat piece that snaps in to the wedge. (See attached sample image)The 2 snap sides should be shallow but fit snugly, face to face, in any 90 degree configuration. A small pry key may be used to separate adjacent parts.
Wants:
Accuracy and functional snap design. Ability to be injection molded in 3 parts or less.
Software:
- SolidWorks - STEP - IGES

Thank you Reda
Congrats ridwan
Thanks Snap Part (Jim) and CadCrowd :)
Hi Snap part,
Thank you for rating please
Thank you for rating please
Could you explain the work function of this part?
I have experience in injection molding for many years, both in product and mold design.
It's important to know the work function when design an injection molded part, to avoid undesirable shape or unnecessary mold piece(s).

Any 90 degree configuration means hypotenuse side can be flipped up side down?
The cap is ready. See the messages about the prototype.
I give consulant also in this thing for my clients. But I will write you in a PM about that.
What would you want the thickness of the shell to be?
Yes the cap should snap firmly and add to the overall stability of the structure. Of course, a 3d printed prototype could be produced in one piece, correct? Is 3d printing an option for production runs of 1000+ units or is 3d printing still too expensive for that?
when you see the 3D-pdf's, you will see that the central cyrcle is a help to get the position. The other snaps get places closed. I didn't leave spaces. The snape force is in the direction of the cyrcle center. this give more stabilisation.
When you want, I can give you a link to order a 3D-printed prototype. I think, It is a good Idea, or what?
But maybe first I can finish the cap. So, must is be get hard to be removed, must be snaped, or what?

you write to me?
Thanks! Much better! Yes, the rectangle top should snap on firmly and will not commonly be removed after attached. Does the central hub represent some kind of friction snap? Are the outer D slots for 90 degree positioning only? Can the central snap be scaled up a little to increase the friction surface?
I have added my design. Please give a feedback and tell us about the cap. Must it be hard fixed?
I understude what you need. I made many products like this for the industry for molding, so for me it is no problem. In will make it today for you.

Sheet metal enclosure design
Please note: this role is ideal for a Midlands (UK) based CAD designer who can make regular trips to our Birmingham office as you will be measuring actual components to extract raw dimensions/data. We require designs of sheet metal enclosures for electro-mechanical components working predominantly with aluminium, zintec and stainless steel.
Note: this role isn't really aimed at 3D renderers and 'product designers' as we require manufacturing and actual shop-floor experience. Clever and innovative designs will be needed to avoid expensive tooling and some parts may involve CNC machining, extrusion or 3D printing. I'd say we're looking more for an 'old school' CAD designer with a flair for innovative design.
Expect 25% of your time measuring, chopping and changing - all of which may be frustrating at times. We're a young startup and a casual bunch so need to work with a designer with whom we can gel for long-term co-operation. The project deliverable includes all the necessary 3D and 2D drawing files including STP, PDF, DWG/DXF and Solidworks.

Driving sprocket design
In search of a sprocket design made of POM plastic material (that has to be CMCed or moulded). The teeth have to be -positive (like a mountain- that are easy to clean under high pressure of water as the sprocket is used in meat and processing industry.
The pitch is 49.7mm but I am looking for a sprocket that can accommodate 24.85mm as well. It has to be fitted onto a 40x40 square bore.
I need sprockets in different diameters but with the same design. Diameters are 90.87mm, 122.51mm, 154,15mm and 185,79mm.
The pitch itself is 4.5mm high, base width is 6mm, top width is 3.5mm. Please ensure the sprocket can fit well with the product itself under no tension, and tension.
