These are the Classic Panels for BeamCase (sandwich) they were the default before the switch to the new rounded full mesh panels style. For people that prefer the old style I have made them available here as the Classic style.

These are just case panels, that are intended to be used with a BeamCase frame. 


Components structure and naming:

Each BeamCase frame version has an IFW number. IFW stands for Inner Frame Width and describes the distance between the Makerbeam XL profiles at the top, front and bottom. The IFW number is an indicator of the width of the case and is important when selecting accessories and case panels. 
Choose the panel size that corresponds to your frame size (IFW number)
All the case panels here are designed for 300mm long aluminum profiles, but Steps are included that you can modify to extend them 
 

 

Print instructions Classic panels:

The panels have two parts in each STL, to print the fan grill/mesh pattern you have to use the function split to parts and reduce the top and bottom layers of the inner part to zero.
This way only the infill will be printed and act as a mesh. You can choose an Infill pattern you prefer, but for good airflow I would choose an infill percentage between 12-18%. (the case in the images uses grid infill as a mesh pattern and infill percentages between 12-16%)
These parts are primarily aesthetic so the can be printed in any material you like (in some rare cases PLA panels can deform with high exhaust air temperatures). In order for the panels to fit perfectly they have to be printed accurately, so ideally consider shrinkage.
