Are you tired of fully printed bearings that don't work well enough? Then this parametric ball bearing model generator is the perfect solution. 3D printing has its limitations, especially with curved parts. This is why fully 3D printed ball bearings simply can't compare to commercial ones.The solution is to remove the most difficult part - the balls. By using proper bearing balls and 3D printing the rest, you can get very close to the real thing. This is a perfect solution when you can't decide which bearing size to use, or when the size you need is not readily available.Depending on the material used, it can be a very good substitute for a commercial bearing. If you need something that will work like a bearing should, look no further.Read the rest of the page for more important information. You will need to dial in the scaling based on your printer and material. If you plan on making multiple, I suggest you print one by one until you dial in the settings.Boost MeThank you
