      Pro Tip: When staying in one unit, positions after the decimal point are called out one by one. So 0.25g is "zero point two five gramm" otherwise good luck with pi. ;-)
      With money, you change units. 3,75€ is three euros and seventy-five cents. That's why "three seventy-five" is ok. Same with hight.

      The switch from "this stuff will kill you if you touch it" to "I'm too stupid to care" made me legit angry. There's also other weird inaccuracies in the vid that ppl who know about water pressure should know better than. If the whole video is parody then that would make sense.

  • @Robinlarsson83
    @Robinlarsson83 4 месяца назад +6

    One note about o-rings and other rubber seals, the one you used looked more like a EPDM "string" rather than an o-ring.
    Way better to design around an off the shelf available o-ring (proper one in fairly hard NBR or similar rubber) than trying to glue something together.
    Glueing seals with CA glue or really any glue that is harder than the rubber will be a problem, it creates a hard point that almost always leaks.
    The usual way of doing it is to have nice cuts that mates well and make the seal a bit to long, so the ends gets compressed into each other. No glue :)
    Or getting some way to vulcanise the rubber together, but yeah :P

    • @Trust_me_I_am_an_Engineer
      @Trust_me_I_am_an_Engineer 4 месяца назад +2

      "creates a hard point that almost always leaks" sounds right, but is completely wrong. I've worked at Engineered Pressure Systems ( EPSI) at Sint Niklaas for seven years and we ALWAYS glue the large O rings (Nitrile cord) with a standard cyanocrylate glue, because noone makes standard O rings with a 800-1000 mm diameter at an acceptable price and delivery time. Perpendicular cut with a sharp knife . These O rings will easily seal high pressure vessels up to 9000 bar (900Mpa). BUT you need a very proper fitting groove and the exact amount of compression for a proper seal. I don't think he used an EPDM cord, but a nitrile one. Of course you're absolutely right about designing around an off the shelf standard is always better . In this case I 'm pretty sure the leak comes from the fact that his O ring is rather thick and not properly pressured ( seriously only 4 little screws holding the lid down ?? )

    With the Oring test i think it might be better to either use more screws or maybe even print the entire cap with a built in thread, since it only needs to tighten enough to press on the o ring consistently.
    You can look at watch caseback designs here. The caseback has a thread and screws onto the case, making enough pressure on the (sometimes multiple) O-rings to withstand immense depths. Most common dive watches are certified to 200m but it is not uncommon for them to go to 600m. Some of them like the omega Ploprof or the rolex deepsea can go far deeper than that (some have been taken to the mariana trench on the outside of a submarine)

    Did you try annealing it by baking the print buried in salt or really fine sand? One alternative to try would be removing all the air from the print whilst having it submerged in stabilizing resin, then baking it. In theory, that would do the same thing as dichtol but less dangerous, as you'd be filling all the pores in the structure with resin, then crystalizing it into the model by baking it.

    from my pov, only abs-like and the Siraya Tech BLU (the one in video) are kind of usable for mechanical purpose while stay with relatively cheap price.
    Otherwise, I would have gone for esun PA100 nylon/esun hard tough/Phrozen Onyx series for something as critical like this.
    Also, those UV resin perform differently over time even without sunlight shining on it. I usually let it dry for a few days instead of using UV cure station. anti UV clear paint is another trick to stop its curing over time. Although UV light can cure the resin, it is still polymer which can be break down by UV light. So when curing as thin as 0.8mm/1mm, you can easily over cure some part of it and causing small cracks(since the UV light isn't spread evenly on your print), hence, brittleness.

    Rather than trying to make the electronics container conpletely water proof, have you considered using a high pressure gas supply (CO2) cartridge for example with a regulator to pressurise the inside of the container to maintain an acceptable pressure differential between the inside and outside? Using an automatic vent valve to perge the pressure as you then come back up. Your depth limit then is really the pressure of the gas in your pressuising 'air supply'. Look at how a diver in a dry suit stops getting pinched by his suit as he goes deeper, as well as controlling his bouyancy. Just a suggestion.

    Can we just proload the pressure inside the hule so only air leak out instead of water leak in.

    You can definitely eliminate those pores by tuning your 3d printiner, jacking up the nozzle temp a little higher than usual, increasing the flow rate, and decreasing the print speed. I had to do this for something I print for my company.

    What flashforge printer do you use? My school uses the adventurer 4

    I think there's one more thing you could try. For example, placing a thin model of a bathyscaphe inside would create areas of artificial overextrusion in the shell, possibly making it less porous overall.

    Can’t you just put fiberglass or sum?

    Haven’t watched yet, but in our testing.. vapor smoothed MJF nylon is the best waterproofing we have witnessed

    You should use a vacuum chamber to soak the dichtol into it faster

    i wonder what the performance of a nontoxic conformal coatings or nail polish would be on water proofing it, i've used both to effectively weatherproof pcbs and it could be a less toxic alternative to the dichtol stuff

    Are any of the powder-sintered ones actually hollow though? Technically they should be full of unsintered powder with how those machines work, each sub would be sinking down into the powder bed and having powder pushed into it per-layer, then sealed up while still like that..

    What about putting dictol in pressure chamber ,drop hulls in ,pressurize for a hour then dry and test???????

    Adding some bags of desiccant on the inside should resolve the moisture issue 😉

    What type of plastic did you use for FDM printing? This is a fundamentally important issue, since of all plastics, only PETG provides the best adhesion between layers.

    I wonder if the print would be more waterproof if you pressurized it directly in Dichtol at low bar for a longer period of time?
    Also, love all these videos, keep it up!
