MWO Omega STL files for 3D Printing | Assembly Model + Action

Omega BattleMech 3D model is inspired by the bulky Mech machine from the BattleTech universe. It is classified as a super-heavy BattleMech, due to its bulkier skeleton, one that hasn’t been designed before it. Capable of weathering huge amounts of fire and its weaponry made it a ruthless defence unit and an anti-aircraft platform.

At its 150 tons mass, the Omega BattleMech can develop a speed of 32 km/h. Its signature design is the three M-7 Gauss Rifles mounted in each of the three torso areas.

The Omega BattleMech 3D model features the video game prototype design lines. It features a bulky torso and the three Gauss Rifles. It is poseable figure, with complete workable feet. The improved joint design ensures full operability of the feet.

The 3D model STL files have been created in Autodesk Maya 3D modeling program. Every file has undergone complete checkup and correction in Netfabb and is error-free.

It is a high-poly 3D model with fine surface detailing and accurate printing details.

The Omega BattleMech 3D model consists of 44 parts. Every part is designed to fit on 18x19cm print bed and is converted into STL file format. The files can easily be handled in any slicing program, such as Cura 15.06 or Simplify3D.

There are two scale versions for the 3D model:

FFF/FDM 1.1 is scaled at 188 mm x 174 mm x 171 mm.

FFF/FDM 1.0 - 213 mm x 230 mm x  210 mm.

Buy Omega BattleMech 3D model by clicking the green “Buy” button. Proceed to checkout. Insert your PayPal account or credit card details. Download the STL files and print them on your home 3D printer.

Note: If you don’t own a 3D printer, you can use 3DHubs 3D printing service to print your model. It’s easy. Just click the Print with 3DHubs button and you will be redirected to their website, where you can enter your location and look for 3D printing services and providers that are available in your city of residence.

On 01.08.2018 new scale and new version of joints have been added.

Now, the MWO Omega 3D Model is available in two scale: 1/60 for Version 2 (FFF/FDM) and 1/100 for Version 3 (DLP/SLA/SLS).

There are 33 parts in FFF/FDM 2.0 Version and 21 parts for DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0 Version

Was added parts of Locks, Connectors, and Joints for better fixing.

- One part of Lock (11_Ge_lock_10H_(x14)) you need to print 14 times.- One part of Connector (2_GE_Connector_C_D_(x4)) you need to print 4 times.- One part of Axis Joint (8_Axis_2_C_Joint_(x4)) you need to print 4 times.- One part of Claw (9_C_Claw_(x6)) you need to print 6 times.- One part of Axis Joint (31_Axis_1_C_Joint_(x2)) you need to print twice.

FFF/FDM 2.0:- Is 1:60 scale and after being printed will stand 300 mm tall, 330 mm wide, 305 mm deep;- Made with new joints;- All movable elements of the Mech were saved.

DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0:- Is 1:100 scale and will stand 180 mm tall, 198 mm wide, 183 mm deep;- Made with new joints;- All movable elements of the Mech were saved;- Has as few details as possible to keep printing costs down.

With new joints from Version 3 and Version 4 you will get next advantages:1. Increases frictional force;2. Possible to up scale or down scale the whole model;3. Printable from any type of material;4. Higher strength;5. Material shrinkage does not affect at strength and friction.

STL files with new scale and new joints are already available for download in “Source files” tab for:- FDM/FFF 2.0 Version;- DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0 Version.

Generic

This model was tested in Cura 3.4.1 and printed on an Ultimaker 2 in PLA material.

Note:

- For parts of Locks and Claws you need to change "Brim" type to "Skirt" in Build Plate Adhesion section.

- You can print new joints with 20-30% infill. 
- With the new joints you can up scale or down scale the whole model.

- You should print old joints with 100% infill. 
- With the old joints do not try to up scale or down scale the whole model since it will not be assemble or movable after scale changes.
- Using the PLA material you should increase the scale of old joints at 2-3% in your slicing program.
- Using the ABS/CPE material you should increase the scale of old joints at 1% in your slicing program.
