Creality V6/ Volcano/ J12 Hiflow 40mm Hotend Fan Mount and Part Cooling Duct

thingiverse

Main mount and duct are now thoroughly revised and hopefully completely fixed. This is a beta version for a V6 hotend mount featuring provision for a 40mm hotend cooling fan, as well as 5015 part cooling designed specifically for the Creality range of printers. The duct has been optimized using CFD to ensure effective part cooling flow. Meanwhile, the hotend cooling has been skillfully directed away from printed parts as much as is practically possible. However, this could be an area where improvement is needed based on feedback received. ABL mounts are identical to my 30mm V6 mount (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3138159). The duct should print in the downloaded orientation with zero support material required. The Mounting plate features nut recesses in the back, which might necessitate minimal support during printing. In contrast, the clamp requires no support whatsoever. 18-1-19: A V2 version of the main mount was added after it became apparent that Creality had made the hotend mounting points 1mm taller. 20-1-19: New files were uploaded following a Fusion software malfunction. 23-1-19: A duct to suit The J-Head 12 Hi Flow hotend has been added. This should be used in conjunction with the basic mount. However, it's worth noting that I haven't modified the BLTouch mount yet.
