40mm Blower Fan Adapter for Briss Fang

prusaprinters

<p>I print in PETG quite often and found the 40mm fans the fang was designed for gave to much air flow even dialed right down to print PETG. So I made an adapter for the stock 40mm blower fan that can be quickly installed when I want to print PETG.</p> <p>It works very well. I have no issues printing PETG with the Fang now.</p> <p>Prints in 2 pieces, the main body of the adapter and the top cover for the air duct. Simply glue the cover to the main body. I made it this way to eliminate the need for supports and keep the duct lines nice and clean.</p> <p>You will need to mount the adapter to the fang before attaching the blower fan as 2 of the mounting screws are located under where the fan mounts.</p> <p>Requires 4 M3x8mm screws to mount the adapter to the fang. Uses the stock screws for the blower fan.</p> <p>I printed in PETG to match the Fang I printed but PLA is a reasonable choice as there is no heat issue where the adapter is mounted.</p> <p>Hope this is of use to some body.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Voxelab Aquila N32</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>0.2</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20% Honeycomb</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> eSun PETG <p>Transparent Blue</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>Sliced in S3D</p> For the main body in PETG: <p>0.2 layer height</p> <p>3 layers top and bottom</p> <p>2 walls</p> <p>20% infill with split process for 30% rectalinear infill 3 layers blow tops.</p> <p>For the top in PETG</p> <p>0.2 layer height</p> <p>4 layers bottom and 3 layers top (makes it solid with no infill)</p> <p>2 walls</p> <p>20% infill</p> <p>If your using PLA then you will have better bridging ability so the above settings aren't as critical.</p> <h3>How I Designed This</h3> </div></p></p> Category: 3D Printer Parts
