TEVO Tarantula Cooling Fan Vent & Inductive Sensor Mount

cults3d

For anyone dissatisfied with their stock TEVO tarantula's hot end, which lacks a part cooling fan or mount for an inductive sensor, these upgrades are designed to meet your needs. The fan vent features a 5015 fan that provides the printed part with ample cooling. I discovered that at higher temperatures with the fan on (above 230° C), the hot end struggles to heat up and often triggers a thermal runaway error, making PLA the preferred material for printing when using this fan vent. No firmware adjustments are required; simply plug the fan's cord into the "Fan" port on the MKS board and, if necessary, solder longer wires together if your fan comes with short ones. Having made these modifications to another printer in the past, I forgot what type of inductive sensor was used, but I believe it's a widely available model. The inductive sensor mount requires minimal time to print. Integrating an inductive sensor will necessitate firmware adjustments and possibly some wire crimping. Print all parts at 100% infill for optimal durability.
