20x20 extrusion raised extruder mount (Tronxy X5S)

prusaprinters

<p>The original extruder positioning on my Tronxy X5S-2E resulted in quite long bowden tubes, so I wanted to reposition them better. Ended up moving the extruders upwards, partly on top of the bed. Managed to cut ~30cm of the 70+cm tubes (which had a bit of slack so the actual improvement isn't full 30cm). Lower retraction and linear advance FTW (4mm -&gt; 3mm, K1.2 -&gt; K0.5).</p> <p>As I use 2 extruders that have quite long motors (planetary), I printed other mount mirrored.</p> <p>Attaches to the 20x20 extrusion with the slot nut (whatever it's called...).</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Tronxy X5S-2E</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.3+</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20%</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> Formfutura PLA <p>Purple</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>Printed with E3D Volcano, 0.8mm nozzle, 0.45mm layers, 2 perimeters.</p></div> How I Designed This =================== <p>Designed in OpenSCAD.
