Alphacool Eisbaer Solo Mount and Heat Exchanger for Water Cooled Hotends

thingiverse

This is the water cooling setup I use in my CorEssentials BETA for the E3D Chimera Aqua. Obviously, this will fit most other printers. You can find out more about the machine on GitHub: https://github.com/MacNite/CorEssentials To build this exact setup, you'll need: Alphacool Eisbaer Solo some M3 screws 60x25mm fan G1/4 mounts for your chosen tube diameter (for E3D that would be G1/4 to 4mm OD Tube) https://www.ebay.com/itm/Pneumatik-IQS-Standard-straight-thread-mount-for-all-diameters-MSV-all-sizes/222673814779?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=521526744321&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 LED heatsink like this, needs to be cut to size https://www.ebay.com/itm/150x60x25mm-Cooler-Aluminum-Heatsink-Extruded-Heatsink-for-LED-Ri-YTM-Ld/114003337531?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 The general concept of this cooler / heat exchanger is really simple: ALPHACOOL Eisbaer is an all-in-one solution as a reservoir, heat-exchanger / heatsink and pump. The LED heatsink and fan are just there to increase performance. I have also used the ALPHACOOL Eisbaer only mounted to a metal plate of other 3D printers. But obviously this becomes quite ineffective if you use a closed chamber and everything may heat up. As an additional inspiration, you may want to look at the Sparkcube EDGE by Sparklab: https://the-sparklab.de/sparkcube-edge-255x175x400/ If there are any questions / uncertainties, feel free to ask them in the comments.
