A snowcat/snow groomer is a large vehicle mainly used to pack snow and improve conditions for skiing, snowboarding, and snowmobile trails. Apart from these functions, it can also be modified to fit exploration and other niches
I am very thankful to Mr Benoît Lussier for his feedbacks which has helped me refine the model further.
If you want to try TPU for tracks, you can download the "Snowcat_TPU_track.3mf" which has the tracks and gears. You will need to replace all the 12 gears in PLA version with the provided gear for TPU track working. but please note that I haven't tested them.
The beam of the winch has a 2.25mm diameter path cut through it to route the rope to operate the winge. Here you have two options. either use a rope with max diameter of 2mm or a 1.75mm 3D printing filament. If you choose the first case you can tie the rope to the hook and route the rope through the beam and then through the rotating platform can reach the winding drum. In this case you can skip the winding spool design over the drum and use the hole on the drum to tie the rope and wind. If you choose to use a filament, it would be a make belief thing and thus no need to route it past the rotating plate. See the image for reference. The yellow part is the rope/filament.
NOTE The tolerances to some elements are zero which has been intentionally provided to friction lock the elements while not in movements. You may have to fine tune the tolerance from your end using scaling function in slicer to ensure good fit without compromising movements. This also applies for the pins that make rotation possible between elements. Please proceed with printing all the pins after testing printing a pin and testing the fit of a joint. You should be able to find the adequate scaling factor with this.
Supports should be provided as required.
Appreciate the makes uploads. Open for suggestions.
