TUTORIAL ONSHAPE EM PORTUGUÊS COMO CRIAR UMA RODA PARA IMPRESSÃO 3D

Introduction

This tutorial will guide you through the process of creating a wheel for 3D printing using Onshape. Designed for beginners, it will also cover how to modify the appearance of your model. Whether you're a hobbyist or looking to enhance your 3D modeling skills, this step-by-step guide will help you get started.

Step 1: Create a New Document

• Open Onshape and log in to your account.
• Click on "Create" in the top left corner.
• Select "Document" from the dropdown menu.
• Name your document (e.g., “3D Wheel Tutorial”) and click "OK."

Step 2: Start a New Sketch

• In your new document, find the "Sketch" tool in the toolbar.
• Select the "Top Plane" as the plane for your sketch.
• Click on "Sketch" to enter sketch mode.

Step 3: Draw the Wheel Profile

• Use the "Circle" tool to draw a circle in the center of your sketch.
• Set the diameter of the circle (e.g., 100 mm) using the dimension tool.
• Draw a second, smaller circle inside the first to represent the wheel's hub (e.g., 30 mm).

Step 4: Create the Wheel's Thickness

• Exit sketch mode by clicking on the green checkmark.
• Select the "Extrude" tool from the toolbar.
• Choose the outer circle and set the thickness (e.g., 10 mm) for the wheel.
• Click "OK" to complete the extrusion.

Step 5: Adding Wheel Details

• Start a new sketch on the front face of the wheel.
• Use the "Circle" tool to draw additional features (e.g., holes or spokes).
• Dimension these features as necessary for design and functionality.

Step 6: Modify Appearance

• To change the appearance of your model, select the wheel.
• Click on "Appearance" in the right panel.
• Choose a color or material finish that suits your design.
• Apply the changes and inspect the model to see how it looks.

Step 7: Prepare for 3D Printing

• Check the model for any errors or issues that could affect printing.
• Export the file in a format compatible with your 3D printer (e.g., STL).
• Click on "File," then "Export," and select the appropriate settings.

Conclusion

You have now successfully created a wheel for 3D printing using Onshape. Key points to remember include sketching accurately, extruding the correct thickness, and modifying the appearance to match your design vision. As a next step, consider experimenting with different designs or features to enhance your modeling skills further. Happy printing!
