Emek/Gamma Core Pump - Proof of Concept

[nak81783]

Did you see the results Brian got from aluminum 3D printing. Might make it a bit easier / quicker prototyping. I’m eagerly awaiting the testing results.

I don’t know many members by their names. What’s the screen name? What project? Got a link?

The metal printer I have access to isn’t running yet.

Sorry BLachance75 had some stock class feeds printed polished and anodized. I’m pretty impressed with the capabilities of aluminum 3d printing.

I had this printed out of aluminum through PCBWay.

That is slick!

Hose routing remains an issue. I want to be able to put the safety back in.

The quiter noise heard when I pull the trigger is just air venting from the trigger valve, but that air can't get to the Gamma Core (allowing it to fire - the louder noise) until the pump handle is cycled.

Will continue working to make it better, but I want to run it a bit to see if it's durable/reliable.


Edit: ...and here's the auto-trigger version.

Need to get parts machined to replace 3D printed parts.

Hose routing will be even more complicated.

I almost like this version better. Aside from the hose routing, it only uses one check valve and no tee barbs. The standard version uses two check valves and one tee barb.

That looks super cool. I want one!
