TronXY X5S (CReality CR10) E3D V6 Mount with Piezo Sensing

thingiverse

Here is a more or less final but still work in progress mount for an E3D V6 style 'groove mount' Hotend to a TronXY X5S. It should work on other machines with similar mounts (from what I can tell, all the TronXY printers, the Creality CR10 and maybe a couple of others). The 27mm Piezo probe works well, set your Z offset to somewhere around 0.1/0.05mm depending on your print settings. Probe speed between 10 and 20 mms should work fine. A new version has been posted, it is stiffer and allows for much faster printing by shaving a lot of unnecessary material. This includes the fan. My design was meh at best. For the moment I'm enjoying this one: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2469775 Instructions for setup with MKS Sbase/Smoothieware are on my blog. STEP files are included. The old Onshape link below will continue to work, but I'm not doing updates there since moving to Fusion 360. On the off chance anyone takes a look at this I'd suggest for now not to use this design. It's somewhat too flexible resulting in bad cornering. I'm working on an improved (and hopefully easier to print) version which should address this. Parts have been updated to be easier to print, and allow for a 5015 radial fan (no fan part included). For now I have only included the 27mm version, if anyone wants to use the 20mm it will still work with this mount, just centre the Piezo disc on the back.
