<h3>Deprecated: Please use <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/106367-hypercube-evolution-hevo-bondtech-lgx-mount-v2">newer V2</a>.<br>&nbsp;</h3><p>This is my attempt to design a mount for the Bondtech LGX extruder with the LGX FF for flexibles hotend kit. The extruder is mounted sideways attached to a mounting plate via two M3 side screws into the extruder and one M2.5 screw that attaches to one side of the FF adapter plug. Also included is a BLTouch mount that attaches to the front of the extruder on the right-hand side of the mount. For part cooling I designed belt clamps that have extra holes for brass inserts to allow attaching a 5015 blower fan. A fan duct I designed press fits into the fan's outlet.</p><p>Required mounting hardware:</p><ul><li>M3 5mmx~5mm brass insert for the center hole in the mount plate.</li><li>2 M3 5mmx~5mm inserts for the belt clamps to attach the 5015 fan to.</li><li>M3x20mm screw to attach mount plate to standard HEVO X carriage.</li><li>2 M3x10mm screws to attach side of extruder to mount plate.</li><li>1 M2.5x8mm screw to attach side of FF adapter plug to mount plate.</li><li>1 M3x35mm screw to replace top-right screw in front of extruder to attach BLTouch mount.</li><li>1 M3x16mm screw to replace top-left screw in front of extruder to attach BLTouch mount.</li><li>2 M3x20mm screws to attach 5015 blower to belt clamps.</li><li>2 M3x12mm screws to attach bottom of mount to extruder bottom.</li></ul><p>The fan duct is very likely not great, as this is just a first attempt without evaluation/tuning, and this is the first time I've designed anything this complex. The X carriage is included as I adjusted the hole sizes for the brass inserts as previously they were so big my inserts were pulling out.</p><p>So far it seems to be working well, but I'm far from done tuning.</p><p>Note: The LGX I used for my printer was provided for free by Bondtech as part of a launch announcement giveaway contest. No review or design work was requested or required to receive this prize.</p><p><a href="https://a360.co/3rOVxlm">Fusion 360 Project</a></p><p>Remixed from:</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2937693">HyperCube Evolution Parts in Fusion 360</a></li><li><a href="https://www.bondtech.se/en/product/lgx-large-gears-extruder/">Bondtech LGX STEP files</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2784911">BLTouch Model</a></li><li><a href="https://grabcad.com/library/radial-cooling-5015-fan-50mm-dc12v-1">Radial Cooling 5015 Fan (50mm) DC12V</a></li></ul>
