This video shows how the Polish Combination Lock could be mounted in safe door or residential door. Please keep in mind that it is shown inside padlock just to visualize how it works.This 3D model was printed on Formiga P100 SLS printer with PA2200 polyamid technology. It has been printed in Warsaw University of Technology in Rapid Prototyping Laboratory. Please treat this as safe lock or door lock but not padlock. It is just mounted in padlock as visualization of its operation.
Hello, thanks to one of the Polish 3D printing Company I make step forward towards presenting first 3D model of my new lock mechanism Polish Combination Lock. It is inside padlock just to show how it works. This first printed worldwide model is fully functional and working fine, printed just on FDM technology. Next model will be printed on SLS and then I will make video to present and explain all details to you based on full 3D model and real presentation. This padlock has 3.2 milion unique combinations! Of course in the end this mechanism will be mounted in safe doors and other high security places, padlock is just as an example to show you the idea how my unique locking mechanism works.
This is picture of first worldwide 3D model of my Polish Combination Lock mechanism inside padlock. This is printed on 3D FDM printer. You can see the OPEN Condition above.This is front view. The printout is not perfect due to FDM limitations but working fine. Next model will be printed on SLS precision 3D printer soon. This model is part of worldwide decoding challenge.
