Ender 3 V2 Direct Drive Mount - Titan/V6

prusaprinters

<p>I found myself with an odd combination of upgrade components to upgrade my Ender 3V2. After being unable to find suitable mounts to cope with the parts I had I decided to take the step and create my own. These are far from finished and I will add updates when I develop these further. My upgrades that I needed to take account for are below:</p><ul><li>E3D Titan Extruder &amp; Pancake Stepper Motor</li><li>Phaetus Dragonfly BMO Hotend</li><li>CR Touch (BL Touch would fit also)</li><li>4010 Fan 24v</li><li>4020 Blower Fan 24v</li></ul><p>I wanted the mount to be as compact as possible keeping the touch close to the hotend. This is the first edition.&nbsp;</p><p>In addition to the three printed parts you will need a bunch of m3 nuts and hex head bolts. To assemble start with the mount adding nuts in the recesses then fix to the back plate. Install the CR touch, Extruder, Hotend to the mount. Next comes the fan mount with the fan installed. Finally the part cooling fan. Install all the wiring and feed it through to the support arm and a cable tie to keep it tidy.&nbsp;</p><p>This combo has many hours of printing at present but the part cooling needs more work as doesn't work as well for overhangs at the rear of the print. I would like to tackle to following as I work on it;</p><ul><li>Reduce the distance on the Y axis between the backplate and the Hotend</li><li>Design a duel duct to come from the single 4020 fan</li><li>Refine the cooling duct to better direct flow - no issues with heat creep but think it could be better</li></ul><p>Let me know what you think, any advice would be welcome.</p><p>https://youtube.com/shorts/OSiYnU-x4gg</p>
