Model details

Description

Overview and production context

Introducing a high-quality 3D model of a spline arbor, designed for precise modeling and 3D printing. The model comprises three key parts: a guide nose (25mm length, 14.9mm diameter), a spline body (55mm length, 25.4mm diameter) for discs, and an ergonomic handle (60mm length, 28mm diameter). The model's detail allows for use in professional projects like tool design or creating realistic scenes.

How to use this model

Use cases, fit and pre-production checks

This 3D spline arbor model is ideal for 3D printing. Printing at a 1:1 scale is recommended for accurate adherence to the described dimensions. Supports may be necessary, especially for the spline section, to ensure smooth and precise details. Materials like PLA or ABS are suitable for creating a durable and functional model. The model is also excellent for use in game engines (Unity, Unreal Engine) due to its detail and optimized topology, as well as for creating realistic AR/VR scenes.
