Anycubic Photon - Non invasive fume extraction system

cults3d

This system extracts fumes from an Anycubic Photon printer without replacing existing panels. Instead, it attaches to the rear of the printer over the top of the rear vents using magnets, preserving warranty validity and ensuring easy attachment and removal. The adapter simply clips on and pulls off. The design employs 5mm cube neodymium magnets that allow for flexible magnet mounts to accommodate various strengths and weights of adapters and pipes. This flexibility makes it possible to connect to a standard 100mm pipe and utilize any bathroom extractor system with an in-line fan. I have also provided models for passing through narrow doors or windows, which can be helpful in certain situations. In fact, I'm using this configuration myself, so I've included the design files for your reference. The magnets are secured with epoxy glue. It's recommended to start with a few and add more as needed, depending on the adapter's weight and strength requirements. As seen in my setup, 10 magnets work perfectly without any issues, but you can go up to 22 if necessary. However, be cautious not to use too many, or it may become difficult to remove the system from the printer. The adapter is designed to locate over the two screws above the vent and around the power socket. To secure the pipes to the adapter, I'm using elastic (hair) bands, which fit snugly into a groove provided for this purpose. Alternatively, you can use normal cable ties if preferred. Please note that the dimensions of the main extraction cover for the Photon are approximately 162 x 122 x 84 mm.
