PrintRBot Metal Plus Fan Shroud for E3D Hot End

thingiverse

This is a fan shroud designed for compatibility with E3D V6 Hot End units. The mounting system can accommodate 40mm fans featuring either 20mm or 40mm thicknesses. Secure attachment is achieved using 22mm M3 screws. Integration with the Printrbot Metal Plus relies on an external component, accessible at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:559657. In response to user feedback, this design has been revised to optimize clearance between the fan shroud and the print bed. To maintain structural integrity, I recommend paying attention to fan placement as the 40mm Fan unit may be positioned perilously close to the X Axis belt. An effective assembly technique involves using epoxy adhesive instead of screw holes to bond the two component pieces together.
