CL-260: Carrier and Fan Assembly for E3D's Titan Extruder

thingiverse

This is a comprehensive guide to designing and printing a custom 3D printer assembly, specifically for the E3D Titan hotend. The guide provides detailed instructions on how to design and print various components, including the fan duct, nozzle, and fan assembly. **Key Components:** 1. **Fanduct:** A straightforward component that slides into Clamp2 and can be screwed to the titan with a screw. It interfaces with a nozzle. * Prints without support * Recommended settings: 1-2 perimeters, layer height of 0.15 - 0.2 mm 2. **Fanduct-Nozzle:** Two options for nozzles are provided; print one and slide it in. They should be "friction fit," but if not, add a dab of glue. * The "small" nozzle has a bug: the E3D hotend was misplaced in the CAD by a few mm, so it is not centered on the nozzle. * Both nozzles should be printed with support and set to "from build plate only." * Recommended settings: 2 perimeters, layer height of 0.1 - 0.15 mm 3. **Fan Assembly:** Currently, there is no right fan assembly, but the clamps from the left one can be mirrored and used for a right fan as well. **Third-Party Models:** The FreeCAD Model may contain external objects licensed under Creative Commons (CC BY 3.0) or GPL 2.0.
