Geeetech i3 X - Fan air channel with LED mounts

thingiverse

A custom air channel for the Geeetech i3 X provides 90° airflow and optimizes space utilization perfectly. The design includes two LED mounts and allows direct fastening to the acrylic plate using just 2 screws. However, it's worth noting that this fan configuration cools down the nozzle as well. To minimize this effect, simply cover the nozzle with a sheet of paper when it comes into contact with airflow (refer to last image). Be advised: printing at low temperatures and activating the "auto-cooling" feature in Slic3r may cause serious under-extrusion issues during layer changes. This is because the sudden drop in temperature increases filament viscosity, leading to underextruded prints that ultimately fail. Printer Settings Manufacturer: Geeetech Model: Geeetech i3 X Raft Settings: Rafts don't make a difference Support Settings: Supports are required Resolution: Nozzle diameter 0.3 mm; layer height 0.2 mm Infill Percentage: Infill is set to 25% Additional Notes: Adding supports through the Slicer/Cura software may be necessary. Alternatively, I have also provided an example with manually created supports that could prove sufficient.
