In this article, we will consider the manufacture of a powerful LED lamp, as well as an aluminum radiator for it. True, the work presupposes the presence of some machines, but those who have access to them will easily make a similar thing for themselves. If you replace the LED with a regular LED bulb, then you can do without a radiator and, accordingly, a machine. For the manufacture of the lamp you will need the following
Tools and materials:
-LED module;
-Aluminum plate;
-100 mm aluminum tube;
-20 mm carbon tube;
-Aerosol spray can with paint;
-Power Supply;
-Soldering iron;
-Solder;
-Heat-shrink tubing;
- Terminals;
-Wire;
- thermal paste;
Potentiometer 100 kOhm;
-Polishing wheels;
-3D printer;
-CNC machine;
-Lathe;
Step One: Project
In CAD, he makes a project for a lamp and a radiator. You can download it.
Step Two: Radiator
You can buy a radiator or make it yourself. The master decided to make a radiator on his own. On a CNC machine, a radiator is cut out of an aluminum plate.
Fastens staples to a radiator.
Step Three: Swivel
Makes parts of the rotary mechanism.
Step Four: Screw
Turns the clamping screw.
Step Five: Mount
For fastening the master used a hollow bolt. The power cord will pass through the bolt.
Step Six: Polishing
Grinds and polishes the radiator.
Seventh step: stand
The stand is made of a carbon tube. Cut the tube to the desired length. Drills holes for the wire.
Step Eight: Case
The body of the lamp is made of aluminum pipe. Cut the pipe to the desired length. Makes a slot for mounting the mount. Paints the body.
Step Nine: Mounting Box
Prints a mounting box on a 3D printer.
Step Ten: Installation
Installs the power button and potentiometer in the mounting box.
Connects the power supply.
Step Eleven: Build
Gathers a lamp. Solders to the LED module of the wire. Screws it to the radiator, after applying thermal grease to it. Installs a radiator in the case. Fastens the rotary mechanism, rack.
The lamp is ready.
The entire process of manufacturing the lamp can be seen in the video.
