EVE 3D Printing Model | Assembly + Action

ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL

EVE stands for Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator, an egg-shaped advanced probe droid who was sent to Earth on a scanning mission for signs of sustainable life. Determined to complete her mission, EVE ignores the romantic advances of a trash compactor WALL-E at first but eventually falls in love with the lovely robot. Together the pair discovers the true meaning of friendship, love, and hope, and their discovery of a sprouting plant helps bring life back to the planet. 

The beautiful EVE model for 3D printing is designed with six interchangeable face variants and several articulated mechanisms for your delicate probe droid to express any emotion you prefer. WALL-E is finally no longer lonely in Gambody’s catalogue, and so should the WALL-E in your 3D printed collection be!

ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING

EVE for 3D printing is an active assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took the Gambody team 40 hours in total. 

For you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible and to minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support the Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator model was divided into many assembly parts, and special mechanisms were introduced into all model’s movable elements to give you an opportunity to display EVE in a variety of positions and scenes.

All assembly parts are provided in STL files in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and that the 3D printing beginners won't face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. When downloading any model's file you will also receive "Assembly Manual" for FFF/FDM 1.0 and DLP/SLA 1.0 versions in PDF format. We highly recommend that you get acquainted with the “Assembly video” and "Assembly Manual" before getting down to the EVE model.

The model is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. All STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.

The model’s scale was calculated from the height of EVE which is 1466 mm. The 3D printing model’s chosen scale is 1:4 for the FFF/FDM version and 1:8 for the DLP/SLA version.

Below you can find printing recommendations for Cura, Bambu Lab, Simplify3D, Slic3r and PrusaSlicer software.

Disclaimer: The following printing settings are a recommendation, not an obligation. The parameters can vary depending on the peculiarities of your 3D printer, the material you use, and especially the particular assembly part you are working with. Each part that any model comprises often needs preliminary review, and you are free to tweak the settings the way you find suitable.

Note:

You can scale up the model (downscaling for FFF/FDM 3D printers is not recommended!);

All connectors should be printed at 100% Infill.
