Expansion slot blower fan

thingiverse

This is a bracket designed specifically for mounting an exhaust blower fan inside your computer case, utilizing two expansion bays. The fan can be mounted with its opening facing either side of the bracket. The fan used in this design is a 96*33mm Delta BFB1012H blower fan salvaged from an old Dell server. It's highly recommended to use a speed controller or connect it directly to a 5-volt power source because these fans tend to be quite loud. Print Settings: Printer: FlashForge Creator Pro (2016) Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: .2mm Infill: 25% Notes: Unless you're using filament that excels at bridging short gaps, you won't need to print supports. Given the bracket's thin structure in many places - often only 1mm thick - it's crucial to adjust your extrusion width for optimal results. For instance, if you're working with a 0.4mm nozzle, use an extrusion width of 0.5mm; many slicers default to 120% of the nozzle width, or 0.48mm in this case. Post-Printing: The fan attaches securely to the bracket via two PC fan screws. How I Designed This This design was crafted using FreeCAD 0.16.
