see the update at the end.
Supports for the EQ6 R pro. Tested on soft ground (sand ground and grass), ceramic floor with relief and sandstone floor, improving stability, accidental slippage and preserving the ceramic floor.
Optionally, you can also print the part Anell_TPE, as an additional anti-slip ring for ceramic floors.
If you are interested, you can also print the part BASE_M10, which incorporates an M10 thread to mount a stake.
Using TPE or TPU of different Shore and varying the infill of the part Amortidor_TPE, maybe you can achieve some cushioning capacity (I haven't tested it, I'll leave it for later). If someone wants to test, they can leave someone comment of the results.
The part Rotula is adapted for the EQ6 R Pro mount. I also leave the part Pivot, that could be used for other mounts. I also leave the STEP files of these parts in case someone wants to modify them at their convenience.
UPDATED MODEL
This is an update of the support parts with the improvements I have made.
The ball joint (rotula) has a larger diameter and allows a little more rotation, to better adapt to the terrain.
The shock absorber piece (amortidor) also has a slightly larger diameter and with the new printing parameters and proposed material improves the absorption of vibrations.
I also made a new ring (anell) and its anchor on the base.
For the flexible material parts I definitely use TPU, much more stable and accurate to print than TPE.
The new configuration files are for the MK3.5 printer. The basic printing parameters I recommend are the following:
Base_new / Base_M10_new:
Material: PETG Prusament
Layer height: 0,2
Perimeters: 5
Solid layers top: 8
Solid layers bottom: 8
Infill: 40% - Triangles.
Support matertial: No
Rotula_new / Pivot_new:
Material: PETG Prusament
Layer height: 0,2
Perimeters: 6
Solid layers top: 5
Solid layers bottom: 10
Infill: 70% - grid.
Support matertial: No
Amortidor_new:
Material: TPU 92A Fillamentum
Layer height: 0,2
Perimeters: 6
Solid layers top: 10
Solid layers bottom: 6
Infill: 50% - Triangle.
Support matertial: No
Anell_new:
Material: PETG
Layer height: 0,2
Perimeters: 3
Solid layers top: 5
Solid layers bottom: 4
Infill: 50% - Triangles.
