Parts by Manufacturing Process

Aluminium covers and copper touch pins.Material: Aluminium (covers), Copper or Brass + Zinc plating (touch pins)
Critical: Covers must be D25.5mm ±0.05mm. Touch pins must make reliable contact — test continuity after assembly. Poor pin contact is the #1 charger failure cause.
For prototyping, 3D print the covers in SLA resin first to verify fit before committing to CNC aluminium (minimum orders typically 10-50 units).
Internal shell/wrapper (OD 28.61mm, H 10.85mm, wall 0.7-1.34mm).Material: PC+ABS
Internal cushioning pad (D22.4mm, 0.6-0.9mm thick).Material: Silicone, 50A or 80A durometer
Frame, LED guide, charger cases, and internal parts.Material: PC+ABS, SLA resin, or MJF nylon depending on finish
All SLA parts can be printed on consumer SLA printers (Formlabs Form 3/4, Elegoo Saturn). Use white/translucent resin for the frame and LED guide — these need to transmit light.

Packaging

Retail packaging 3D models for manufacturing the box, foam inserts, and protective case.

Ordering Guide for Indie Makers

1

Start with SLA-printed parts

Print the frame, LED guide, charger cases, enhance plate, and pad on your SLA printer. Total print time: ~4-6 hours. Cost: ~$5 in resin.
No SLA printer? Services like JLCPCB 3D Printing, Craftcloud, or Shapeways accept STEP files directly.
2

Order CNC aluminium covers

Upload case-a.step and case-b.step to a CNC service. Specify 6061 aluminium, anodized finish. Typical lead time: 5-10 days, $10-30/unit at 10+ quantity.
3

Source silicone pad and wrapper

For prototyping, 3D print the silicone pad in flexible resin (Formlabs Flexible 80A). The wrapper can be SLA printed in rigid resin.
True silicone molding and injection molding only make economic sense at 500+ units.

Buy off-the-shelf parts

Order from standard suppliers: N52 magnets (D3×H3mm), Phillips screws (CM1.2×5), necklace rope (2.5mm), dust filters, double-sided tape. All available on AliExpress/Amazon.
