For this project we had to make replacement parts for broken seat legs. We fully measured these to then model out in Fusion360.
For production we initially chose Ninjaflex steel TPU with a shore hardness of 80. This material soon proved to be too soft, causing snap connections and assembly to damage the model. Eventually, we worked with Makerfill flex TPU for this project as well.
Since flexible material tends to silt up, we compensated for this property in the slicer software by adding a horizontal expansion of -0.2mm. This keeps the thread operational even with flexible filament.
