Duplicator i3 e3d v6 adapter

myminifactory

This adapter is specifically designed for the E3D V6 hotend to seamlessly fit onto a Wanhao Duplicator i3, Cocoon Create, or Monoprice Maker Select. It should also work perfectly on versions 1, 2, and 2.1 of these printers. Completely rebuilt from scratch but inspired by Piggyjj's original model, this new design takes into account several key improvements. Four holes are now included for the E3D clamp, which helps prevent the hotend from tilting to one side. Additionally, three prongs have been added for securing belts instead of the traditional screw/bolt system. This new system eliminates a common problem associated with the original design - bolts flexing when the belt is tightened and pulling on them. This works well in metal designs but can cause issues in plastic ones. Two versions of this adapter are included: one designed for printers with two top X carriages, and another for those with only one top X carriage. To get the most out of this adapter, it's recommended to use it in conjunction with modified bearing holders or printed versions that address belt rub issues. Two M3 25mm bolts will be required for installation. The standard long black hex head M3 bolts used in the MK10 extruder can be used in the bottom two holes of the clamp. With PTFE tube running all the way to the bottom of the MK10, I've successfully printed Ninjaflex (TPU) using this setup without any issues.
