morning everyone!

Good morning Bertl :)
10:30
SashaC
How are you today?
10:30
Bertl
how's going? every fine down under?
10:31
Bertl
fine so far, thanks for asking ... btw, we finally got snow :)
10:31
SashaC
Yes, things are fine. I'm still a little jet-lagged, and very much missing being in Europe
10:31
SashaC
The snow was only a few weeks late ;)

back
11:14
se6astian
had a meeting with guys running a CNC and 3d printing business
11:15
se6astian
very good ideas
11:15
se6astian
regarding the Axiom enlcosure and prototype concept printing
11:16
SashaC
Can you describe or summarise their ideas?
11:21
se6astian
using two L profiles of 100x100x10mm to form a rectangle for example
11:21
se6astian
these aluminum profiles are cheaply widely available
11:21

11:22
se6astian
and could be the basis for our CNC cutting forms
11:22
se6astian
which is much more efficient than cutting huge amounts of materil away from a solid 10x11cm aluminum block
11:24
Bertl
of course, it would even make sense to create a custom profile for larger quantities
11:24
guesst
if you can join them some way.. otherwise two Ls have very different mechanical properties
11:25
SashaC
I see. Are you also investigating methods for 3D printing parts of the enclosure with these guys?
11:25
Bertl
in which case it probably would be more a C or O
11:25
guesst
(and there are rectangular profiles too.. might not be so common, but still better than solid block)
11:25
se6astian
custom aluminum extrusion is possible but only makes sense at high volume
11:27
se6astian
3d printing for a physical prototype yes
11:27
se6astian
not for production though
11:29
se6astian
The two Ls would allow people to make custom modules much easier than if we used a custom extrusion which again only we would have direct access to
11:30
guesst
is there another $10k product which is customized in so lowend way?
11:31
guesst
offering a universal box with no holes might be better idea
11:32
Bertl
maybe, we'll see ...
11:33
se6astian
I ll draw up a concept again to see what is possible and what is not with the two Ls, we will see more clearly then
11:34
Bertl
good idea
