Ender3 direct titan extruder mounting bracket

thingiverse

This design is based on the angled titan extruder bracket designed by napfkuchen. I remade it in Fusion360 as a learning exercise to improve my skills, and have included the file so others can make their own changes easily. There are several key differences between this design and the original: 1. The design is significantly more rigid. 2. Some dimensions were changed to accommodate the extruder purchased for use. 3. This design was created to be compatible with the petsfang bullseye cooler, as well as the original ender3 fans and hotend, but its compatibility with these components may vary. 4. The rear hole between the wheel axles was enlarged to cover the threaded insert on the ender3. This design greatly improves rigidity. In comparison to the original design, which required a linear advance of 0.8 or pressure advance of 0.8 due to extruder flexing, this new design requires only a linear advance of 0.3 and exhibits no visible flexing in the bracket. The stepper motor from the original extruder is reused, but could be replaced with a lighter motor if desired. As this titan extruder was purchased as a clone from china, its dimensions may differ from those of the original. However, it shouldn't be too difficult to modify the design to suit these differences. In terms of printer quality, this upgrade has made a significant positive impact at minimal cost - approximately $8 AUD for the new extruder, with all other components reused.
