GEEETech i3B (METAL version): Single Extruder FAN & LED (V4 with Radial FAN)

thingiverse

Hi, now GEEETech proposes the Acrylic Prusa I3 pro series, B for single extruder and C for dual extruder, with metallic parts instead of original printer ones. Immediately, I've ordered an upgrade kit to improve stability and quality on my not-so-bad printer. Unfortunately, the customization I designed for the plastic version can't be used on the metal one, so I started designing a new one, using all the lessons learned from my first design! One main lesson was to decouple all contact points for easy mounting, maintenance, and upgrades. Here's the Mono Extruder FAN & LED component of my new customization in its fourth iteration... Compared to version 3, I completely redesigned the cooling subsystem around a brand-new Radial Fan with a beautiful circular system that cools down the print area at 360 degrees wide! Two components (#1 and #5) are slightly different if you have the new black feeder compared to the metal one. I designed #1 and #5 for both, "B" is for Black feeder and "M" is for Metal feeder. As usual in my designs, everything's split so it can be easily printed and mounted with glue after printing! After installing this customization, it's a good idea to re-execute the PID Autotest. I did two tests, one with fan power off and one with fan power on, and they were both different from the same test done just hours before. If you fall in love with this design, remember that it takes time to be created, designed, and shared. Maybe you can use the "Tip Designed" button on my profile!
