Micro Swiss NG CR10/Ender3/5/6 Fan Shroud

thingiverse

Took Micro Swiss their shroud model and modified it a little bit. This was more about making it work and print just as easy as the original, but after testing a little bit it works really well! Changes I made to the shroud: - Modified fan port to fit the nozzle of the 5015 instead of the small 4010. - Added devider to the new port to distribute the air more evenly across both ends. - Lowered the 40mm hotend fan a touch so it fits underneath the stepper. - Reinforced the passing duct underneath the 40mm fan because of the lowering - added small nut recess for the 5015 screws Prints fairly easy because the port and divider are at an angle. Minor internal overhang should print just fine. STP file is included. Hopefully I saved someone else the trouble. Edit 17/01/2023: Included pictures of the shroud seperate and doing a water displacement test. Test confirms finding: airflow is divided nicely, albeit a teeny-tiny bit more flow on the fan side duct. Edit 23/01/2023: On request of TheRealBigJake a version of this shroud pushed up higher to account for the Ender 6 frame, but perhaps other printerframes as well. Shroud has been build from the groud up with more height in mind, and still keeping supports to a minimum. Edit 30/01/2023: On request of imcharlieb and Boomeris designed a little BLTouch mount that screws into the old hotend screws. The location is really tight and might require a roller to be removed for installation. There is another idea coming up, but it requires an extra mounting point on the shroud and therefore a reprint, which would suck... Anyways, if you try it; please let me know what you think about the location and what I could improve. Thanks. the probe offsets are; X: +3.2, Y: +48.6 Edit 10/4/2023: Due to populararity and questions for mods, the step file for the ender 6 model has also been included now. Feel free to modify however you like! When you're done, make sure to share your remix with the world so others can use it as well.
