Lilly will take you step-by-step through the 3D design process of drawing a propeller. We tried many methods of doing this to finally arrive at a simple procedure that produces a flexible parametric design. Follow the full transcript as you watch. Use the same process to create one in this or other CAD software. Our design has only nine steps yet is flexible enough to accommodate a different number of blades, changes in the blade shape, angle, thickness and size and different heights and diameters for the hub and hole.
Depending on the degree to which this can be secured to the shaft, it can be quite durable on a lab mixer, even for high speed mixing. Test, adjust the design and reprint until it is working well and then have a metal one printed at a 3D printing service provider.
