Disclaimer - This is a proof of concept digital design only, created for educational purposes only, not intended for production use. Based on the Hero Me Gen 4 by Andrew Soderberg (mediaman), found at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3433619. I've been utilizing the Gen 3/4 for over six months now and have implemented these changes to overcome minor issues I encountered. Designed specifically for my Ender 5 Plus with an all-metal hot-end, I thought others might find this useful; step files are included for easy editing. Numerous minor adjustments and reinforcements enhance strength, modified cable management improves organization, heat-sink vent adjustment increases screw clearance and cools the lower section of the heat-sink more effectively, a notch provides access to the heat-break grub screw, reinforced BLTouch mount reduces flex and movement, clearsances are improved specifically for the Ender 5 Plus, rear bolt holes on the base are moved to improve access (use short M3 bolts through the back of the carriage slot). Due to the changes made, these parts will not be compatible with the original Hero Me Gen4. BLTouch Offset define NOZZLE_TO_PROBE_OFFSET { -50, -16, -1 } As a reference, my current Z offset is -2.7; this may vary from printer to printer. If necessary, you can physically adjust the Z gap by modifying the step file. Print with 100% infill and supports. This design may fit other printers if you wish to try.
