3D model description

Assembly of a wind turbine

I have made this wind turbine as a gift for a friend who graduated in industrial energetic engineering. It took a while to be developed but the final result is really nice and he appreciated it a lot!

In my model there is no motor in it. However, the impeller is fixed to the nacelle through a bearing, which let it rotate freely. When wind blows it actually works!

You can further develop it to control it with electronics or actually use it as a generator. If you do, don't hesitate to share it :D

3D printing settings

The whole assembled turbine is around 250 mm high and the base is 110x70.

All pieces are very easy to print and tolerances are not so tight, so it is also easy to be assembled. I printed it in PLA. No supports are needed.

The non-printed parts are listed in the drawing you can find among the files. It is supposed to work like a blueprint.
You can find a video of the assembly procedure on my instagram page!
