In this video we will be describing trials of our second 3D printed light anti armor rocket launcher. We discuss what lessons we've learned, what went wrong and what went right, as well as the function of these rockets.

Print at 45° for non shear strength. (45° layer lines are not perpendicular with linear or 90° shear forces)

I had the thought while watching, instead of printing the nose cones in 100% infill. Print the nose cone w/ most of the cone solid(base layers) and the tip being hollow so when impacting the target the point crushes. I think this would create a harder impact and the solid base able to transfer the force.

sweet guys! been following for a while now cant wait until this gets a public release. also maybe you guys should start thinking about 3d printing molds for your pieces instead of 3d printing the parts themselves. you can then inject these molds with high tensile liquid polymer like some sort of silicone or resin.

@javant6993 Жыл бұрын
Using these molds, you could probably make fiberglass/resin (or some other kind of fiber reenforced resin, such as kevlar, nylon, cotton, ect) parts, such as the launch tube. AT-4 uses a fiberglass launch tube.

I read that most anti armor weapons use short action rocket motors that burn stupidly fast (in milliseconds). Increasing the burn rate might help accuracy (and velocity), but plastic is not the ideal material.
@Tunkkis
@Tunkkis Жыл бұрын
Not ideal by any means, but massively more accessible than most, if not all, alternatives.
@fallu6224
@fallu6224 Жыл бұрын
What I have seen in my testing is that plastic and resin polymers can benefit from faster burn rate. Resin cracks if exposed to mid intensity heat because it experiences thermal stress when cooling but survives with short duration high temps. ordinary plastic on the other hand produces a carbon barrier that protects the plastic from temperature. The reaction is so fast that most of the plastic doesn't melt but small parts act as a sacrificial layer.

Nothing about it is ideal. But we're not trying to create an Ideal anti-tank rocket, just an effective one. And honestly drone-drop would be a FAR more effective delivery means. Were just exploring what is possible with consumer 3D printing. The rocket motor in the next round burns .400ms

Is the rocket motor still accelerating the projectile at the moment the projectile hits the plywood? Maybe the still-accelerating-motor's forward force is strong enough to counteract the backwards force imparted on the detonator at the moment the projectile hits the plywood? Have you tried shooting the projectile into something that won't break (big piece of metal)?

Have you considered electroforming for your copper liners? It would make it much easier for you or more importantly your end user to be able to actually print the shaped charge in it's entirety then using conductive paint and a simple copper sulfate solution. electroform a copper layer onto the plastic liner, once its thick enough it's ready to go once you fill the warhead. Electroplating may actually be very helpful to reinforce some of the parts that take the most stress. A thin layer of copper then nickel will increase the strength of the part by a significant degree and would only add a few ounces of weigh depending on how much strength you need.
@DandSCreations
@DandSCreations Жыл бұрын
We're already printing the liners, and they actually work, extremely well I might add. 95% as effective as machined cones, however now we can test exotic geometries which would be prohibitively expensive to machine, and it only takes about an hour to print one.

Because nobody has ever made a 3D printed plastic anti tank rocket before. So copying a design made of steel and aluminum won't work. We did manage to achieve stability, and our HE rounds are getting really close too now.. the next version the MK3 has all the fixes and I'm pretty positive well be blowing holes in steel targets soon.
