STL files not scaled for 3d printing #2

Closed rjduran closed 9 years ago

rjduran commented 9 years ago

The mesh files are not scaled to the actual physical size when printed. I'm new to the project so I have not yet configured everything. Do the files get scaled somewhere in software? For example, the l_foot.stl file has the dimensions L = 0.05mm, W = 0.04mm, H = 0.15mm

Yep it's my fault, I wrongly exported file into "meter" instead of "millimeter"...

I explained it here:https://forum.poppy-project.org/t/release-of-poppy-1-0-price-and-date/928/

I will try to re-export them ASAP.

Got it. Thanks!

I keep it open until I solve it.

Thanks for raising it as an issue.

New export available here: https://github.com/poppy-project/poppy-humanoid/releases/download/1.0-pre-release/STL_3D_printed_parts.zip

I also created a tutorial and a python script to simplify the STL export of 3D printed parts from Solidworks. See here: https://github.com/poppy-project/poppy-humanoid/tree/master/hardware/doc/how_to_export_to_STL.md
