AlohaMini2 Print Guide

June 6, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

AlohaMini2 structural parts can be printed with PLA, PETG, ABS, or similar FDM materials. The parts are designed for a Bambu P2S-class printer.

SettingRecommendation
Wall loops4-6
Infill15-25%
SupportEnable where required by the slicer

For the best strength, use 6 wall loops on load-bearing parts.

Printed Parts

Print the STL files from:

AlohaMini2/hardware/mobile_base2/stl/

Unless listed otherwise, each STL file is printed once.

Material Notes

MaterialNotes
PLAEasiest to print, but lower strength and heat resistance. Good for general test builds.
PETGTougher than PLA, but stringier and more prone to rack/gear tooth adhesion. Use PLA or dedicated support material for support interfaces when possible.
ABSStronger and more heat-resistant, but more likely to warp. Use an enclosed printer, such as X2D, and control chamber temperature.

Chassis Printing

The chassis segments are large and can warp during printing. For the chassis, use the print-optimized STL when available:

OB_Chassis_Segment_1of3_PrintOptimized.stl

Printed Substitutes

If the BOM-listed aluminum extrusion for the T-frame or the chassis steel pins are not available, printed substitutes can be used. However, printed substitutes will significantly reduce structural strength. Use metal parts for the final build whenever possible.
