FT-6 Dual Extruder Dual Fan Bracket

thingiverse

This is a cooling fan adapter designed specifically for the Folgertech FT-6 dual extruder option. For larger diameter nozzles, adequate cooling becomes an immediate necessity. This solution employs two standard 5015 blower fans (I used Winsinn ones from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/WINSINN-Bearing-50x50x15mm-Extruder-Makerbot/dp/B07DB7DLMM). To assemble this adapter, you will need additional hardware: (4) M4x20 screws (4) M4 nuts (4) M3x16 screws After printing the adapter, install it by removing the cooling block fan and replacing the screws with M3x16 screws. Attach the bracket to the outside of the fan and reorient it if necessary for easier wire routing. Secure the blower fans in the ducts using M4 hardware. Hook up the fans in parallel to the extruder carriage board's fan inputs. A note: you may need to reposition your bed leveling sensor after installing this modification. You will definitely need to re-run your PID settings with the fans on after installation. This adapter is intended for the FT-6, but it should fit any cyclops clone with the same geometry as the 2 in 1 out extruder (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32796885685.html). The branded cooling block with 'NF' marked on it could also work. However, if you plan to use this adapter elsewhere, check the geometry of your specific model before installation.
