NEMA 17 Stepper Motor Heat Sink

thingiverse

Heat Sink for a NEMA 17 Stepper Motor commonly used on most desktop 3D printers and many other applications. TCPoly's composite FDM filament allows printing heat sinks and electronics cooling devices, resulting in a 25% reduction in temperature increase on our Lulzbot TAZ 5's steppers. Thermal tape is required to attach the heat sink onto motor faces.

The printer makes one pass up and one pass down for each fin (see image below). We used a 0.64mm layer height but can go smaller.
