EinStar Handle #einstarhandledesign

I am pleased to share my ergonomic solution for the Shining3D EinStar scanner to you all.
As always, I started with the project by making 2D sketches first.
I then 3D printed the scanner model where I custom made a clay model.
After various ergonomics and "grip" tests, I marked some parts, I didn't waste much time in modeling the clay to perfection since I only needed it as an initial reference.
Once the shape was defined, I captured the real model with my trusty Shining3D EinscanH 3D scanner.
I then brought the meshes back to SolidEdge to proceed with the reverse engineering of the reference surfaces.
From here I started to define the first lasts focusing on the most ergonomic last adhering to the scanned model.
So I printed the first solution but honestly it didn't fully satisfy me.
I'm referring to the design, so as a second elaboration of the CAD I tried to give a more coherent line to the EinStar.
I studied various designs and referred to the initial 2D sketches that inspired me.
So I redefined the handle of the scanner considering the EinStar guidelines adding the writings and imagining a future technological upgrade such as the insertion of a powerbank and a wireless module that plugs into the existing socket of the EinStar.
I finally printed the final solution. I tried it and honestly I'm satisfied with the result.
I made the side walls by offsetting the original surfaces of the scanner by 6mm but in the first versions I saw that even 2mm is enough and maybe even manage to make the project leaner and more adherent to the scanner.
Of course I leave you all the last considerations on the project and I look forward to all the constructive criticisms that you can offer to improve the project.
I love this job and I expect your feedback and if it is positive I would like you to share my project, so I leave here the references to my social profiles where you can find other images and videos.
