Hatak 3D Printing Model | Assembly

ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL

The plot of the science-fiction franchise Stargate is based on the idea of an alien portal device, the mystery of which was discovered by young Egyptologist and linguist Daniel Jackson. The large metallic ring, known as Stargate, allows rapid travel between distant locations and makes it possible to visit alien planets without using spaceships. The Goa’uld race is considered to be the dominating race in the Milky Way galaxy, and, despite actively using Stargate technology, these creatures possess a large and powerful space fleet. Pyramid-shaped spaceships Ha’taks serve as the main class of capital ships employed by most Goa’uld System Lords. With an arsenal of weapons, powerful engines, and numerous protection systems, Ha’taks represent extremely potent vessels perfect for ship-to-ship combat or orbital bombardment.

The appearance of the attack vessel in the television series inspired our talented 3D artist to create this exclusive work. The model consists of two sections: the main section in the form of a triangle-based pyramid built into the center of the vessel and a triangle-shaped superstructure built around the pyramid. The main section was used for the command areas, while the outer structure housed the vessel’s weapons. The design of the Ha’tak is truly impressive: the surface of the pyramid is covered with freely arranged ring-shaped lines, the construction of the spacecraft is quite atypical, and the consoles with tiny windows in the main and outer sections make the model look even more massive and magnificent. Ha’tak is a complex space system and by printing it you will receive something bigger than just a model, you will possess a true piece of art!

ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING

The Ha’tak model for 3D printing is a static assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took the Gambody team 94 hours in total.

For you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible, minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support, and make use of the active elements designed by Gambody Engineers, the spaceship was divided into convenient assembly parts.

All assembly parts in the FFF/FDM 1.0 version 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 and video formats. We highly recommend that you get acquainted with the “Assembly Video” and “Assembly Manual” before getting down to the Ha’tak 3D printing 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 length of the spaceship which is 700000 mm. The 3D printing model’s chosen scales are 1:1700 for the FFF/FDM version and 1:3400 for the DLP/SLA version.

VERSIONS’ SPECIFICATIONS

Below you can find printing recommendations for Cura, 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.
