Filament Cooler for Filastruder V2.0

prusaprinters

<p>I remixed this as the original one was designed for the first version of the filastruder, I redesigned it for version 2 plus i put a longer arm on it, to keep the fan at least 25mm from the nozzle as if it is too close, it causes the temperature at the nozzle to fluctuate too much causing the manufactured filament to have poor quality due to being extruded too cold, found it works better than the supplied fan mount that came with the kit, also the longer arm allows the bracket to attach behind the heating area as the original design had softening issues being right on top of the hot zone.</p> <p>Also the bracket component is designed slightly undersized to allow for a tight clamping on the insulation on the barrel.</p> <p>Update 18/11/18</p> <p>Redesigned the Cooler so the fan can pivot, plus the clamp is now larger I can provide an stl file that uses the original diameter.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>GeeTech i3B</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Doesn't Matter</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20%</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>don't use a layer height above 0.2mm otherwise when the bracket is being printed, it will come out a little messy if you use a layer height of 0.3mm or higher support is needed</p></div> </p></p> Category: 3D Printer Extruders
