Description

PDF

For making XXL uniform burger patties. 

What changed:

  • I have added a bit of a bevel that ease the press process as well as some aesthetic improvements to reduce filament consumption. 
  • The handler is 90 mm + long, enough to fit a chubby hand in it.

 

Print recommendations:

  1. Print with > 1.6mm wall width:
    1. This is about 4 perimeters if using 0.4 nozzle or
    2. This is about 3 perimeters if using 0.6 nozzle (I used this) 
  2. Use ~50%infill
  3. No supports needed, at least not when using an Ender3 v2.
  4. It works great when printed over a glass bed but it's tricky to get it detached (wait until bed is fully cold).
  5. PLA seems to work better than PETG (I've seen makes that broke on first use).

 

As for the patty:

  1. It works great with a Patty from 160 (0.35 pounds). 
    • Less than that, and the meat will be too thin. 
  2. It can take up to 226 gr (0.5 pounds) without issues.
    • The thicker the patty, the more it will take to cook evenly.
  3. I would recommend using ~180 gr (0.4 pounds). It has the perfect height to width ratio for perfect cooking.
  4. Add some oil to the flattening surface to avoid the meat to stick to it.
  5. Wash with soapy water. Even in PLA, it can withstand hot water for a brief period of time without deforming when cleaning it.

Enjoy!
