The Ben Heck Team has finally reached the conclusion of the Super Glue Gun project. Ben puts the finishing touches on the design using Autodesk Fusion 360, prints the parts, and does final assembly on a proof of concept. Does the super glue gun live up to his name? Does it have what it takes to make it on the consumer market? Ben did some more design on the gun barrel using Autodesk Fusion 360. He thinks he found a way to get the wires through. He got a few pieces, front and rear wood to hold the barrel in place. Ben made a few changes to the motor cap stuff. He put a groove into the bottom of it. That should be enough to get the AC and temperature sensor wires out of the barrel. He designs a place to put the motor driver. Wires take more space then you think. You have to be sure to account for them in your design, including any folds, loops or bends they might do. He does a section analysis to “peel back” the surface and the design works with the motor driver. He’ll print the four halves separately, the two halves of the barrel along with the two halves of the barrel, and glue them together so they represent what a solid piece would look like. On the front hot end of the gun, you have the AC barrel heater along with the temperature sensor. He’ll design it with assembly in mind rather than just glue and screw it together. Kapton tape is used to insulate the parts from heat as well as electricity. Everything fits together once assembled. This includes the AC wires, the sensor wires, and the motor drive wires coming out of the back. This will all go into the base of the handle where all the electronic controls are contained. Once he glues the halves together he’ll have a completed prototype. He’ll have to also make some adjustments to allow for an opening for the programming port. Once assembly is complete he’ll test make sure it works before completing the build. Ben does a motor test to ensure that everything is wired correct
