Fabrikator Mini Z-Axis Fan Shroud

prusaprinters

<p>I've made this Z-Axis fan shroud for the right ventilation slits in the Fabrikator Mini V1.5. It is inspired by, and fits right beside, <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1090263">this X-Axis fan shroud</a>, which can be added to the Fabrikator Mini V1.5 without drilling any new holes.</p> <p>The (25mm) fan is angled by around 10degree in an attempt to reach the Z-Axis stepper motor. It seems to reduce the temperature a little.</p> <p><a href="https://youtu.be/L9FATwZglfM">Time-lapse of print process</a></p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Fabrikator Mini</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>15%</p> <h3>How I Designed This</h3> <p>I've already fought with angled parts in OpenSCAD before. This is the first time I'm using the <a href="https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/The_OpenSCAD_Language#polyhedron">polyhedron</a>, which allows parameterizing the angle and still results in a more-or-less nice seam between the objects.</p> </p></p> Category: 3D Printer Accessories
