Ultimaker 2 E3D v6 adapter

pinshape

Summary These are the components for the next iteration of my E3D adapter. Goals Refresh the design using v6 heatbreak, dual material with ability to independently level nozzle height, maintain same Z height as stock, and offer 1.75 filament option. First run of machined aluminum parts can be found here. Print Settings Notes: Mounting plate with integrated air guide for E3D adapter; recommend using Polycarbonate. Blower shroud is designed for radial fan found here and for heat set brass inserts. Lever arm, used for UM2+ styled extruder, replaces stock arm, shifting the bearing 1.2mm closer to the drive gear enabling 1.75mm filament use; recommend using Polycarbonate. To convert to 1.75 diameter filament, sleeve the 6mm PTFE bowden tube using 2mm ID x 3mm OD tubing; found on aliexpress. A plug is needed to prevent the sleeve from being pulled back into the extruder; the plug's 3D file is on my todo list.
