Direct drive extruder mount for Ender 5 Plus

thingiverse

This upgraded version of the SpeedDrive v1 mounting bracket by sashalex007 eliminates geometry that interferes with the limit switch on the Ender 5 Plus. To convert an E5P to direct drive, all you need is a 400mm (16") stepper motor extension cable and a method for suspending the spool overhead. You can reuse all stock parts such as fans and hardware. This design also works on the standard ender 5. Update: An additional bracket has been added that is compatible with the dual gear extruder. The geometry differs slightly, requiring a 9mm offset to maintain concentricity between filament and nozzle center lines. Update July 14, 2020 Two revised parts have been added that now include cable support. There's one for regular extruders (E5Plus_DD_R1.STL) and another for the dual gear extruder (E5Plus_DD_dual_gear_R1.STL).
