Fabrikator Mini PLA Fan Add-on shroud

thingiverse

I'm designing a custom PLA + Extruder 30mm Cooling fan shroud for individuals who want precise control over their cooling systems through software. This, however, requires some technical know-how to edit the Firmware and reroute the fan pins for customized use, in addition to running an independent fan that may add extra complexity to your setup. I have developed two distinct versions of this design: a more slender model with slightly reduced height and another slightly thicker version, roughly 2mm longer. To accommodate my E3D V6 extruder, I had to extend the shroud by about 1-2mm compared to the standard one. To ensure proper functionality, it's essential to clip the shroud 1 extruder fin lower than its original position for clearance purposes. Be aware that you must strictly limit your Z-height to 58mm or else the extruder cooling fan may collide with the acrylic during printing above this threshold. I'm actively working on adjusting the extruder fan offset to avoid this issue. Print Settings: Printer: Fabrikator Mini Rafts: Doesn't matter Supports: No Resolution: 0.3mm Infill: 20%
