FAC F 250 R Italian Meat Slicer Grip and Shield replacement

cults3d

The archive contains .stl files to print a replacement grip plus shield for the meat and ham slicer FAC F 250 R made in italy. I do not know, whether it fits any other machines. The dimensions for this one are: mounting screw holes 150mm apart from each other mounting screw holes 5mm below upper rim (rim to centre of hole) 5.2mm thick metal wall it mounts on I am happy to provide any modifications for different dimensions or should a piece fail. Two grips printed on two separate printers with average to good tolerances have been used for several months now with no problems whatsoever. Assembling the grip requires the two original flathead screws for mounting to the machine and additionally two sinkhole M4 screws up to a length of 20mm, which screw directly into the plastic on the grip. Alternatively, I included a grip variant with 5.9mm holes sized for M4 SL-type heat seated inserts, like the ones made by Ruthex. I opted for a two part design, because this is the only reliable way to ensure that no natural weak points form across the grip or the flat head screw holes, which is where most of the stress occurs. One sinkhole screw at the top still has this issue, so be careful when tightening that screw.
