Orbiter V2 direct drive extruder carriage mount for Ender 3 v2 NEO

thingiverse

This is a carriage adapter bracket for mounting an Orbiter v2 direct drive extruder on an Ender 3 V2 NEO with stock hotend, or any direct replacement hotend such as the MicroSwiss. I printed the part with my flashforge foto 8.9 resin printer although FDM should work. The model has holes for m3 x 5mm threaded inserts although you could just use a bolt and nut to secure the extruder to the adapter if you don't have heat-melt threaded inserts. To install the adapter, disassemble the hotend assembly. Then remove the carriage plate from the x-axis gantry. The spacers for the two top rollers are pressed into this adapter plate and then re-assembled. If you like the magnetic removable fan shroud, that came from another part posted here by Zeltroix, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5927471 I have provided an STL, .smf, .f3d, and .obj files for this part so hopefully it can be used and modified easily.
