Solution

  • Step 1: Design & CAD Modeling.聽Begin with a detailed design of the earbuds enclosure, specifying dimensions, tolerances, and aesthetics. Use CAD software to create precise 3D models of each component.
  • Step 2: Material Selection. Choose suitable materials and techniques for each part. Bottom housing: Black resin for LCD 3D printing. PCB holder: Aluminum alloy for CNC milling. Seal ring: Copper for CNC milling.
  • Step 3: LCD 3D Printing of Bottom Housing. Prepare the 3D printer with black resin. Print the bottom housing using LCD technology, ensuring high precision to maintain the integrity of the design. Remove the part from the printer and clean off any excess resin.
  • Step 4: CNC Milling of PCB Holder and Seal Ring.聽 Set up the CNC machine with the appropriate milling tools for aluminum and copper. Load the aluminum alloy and copper blocks into the machine. Mill the PCB holder from aluminum alloy and the seal ring from copper, following the CAD design closely.
  • Step 5: Post-Processing. Inspect the 3D-printed bottom housing for any supporting structure marks that need to be addressed. Check the CNC milled parts for sanding marks and ensure they meet the design specifications. Assemble the parts to verify fit and precision.
