L3K V2 is finally here\nUpdated on November 2, 2016. See the section below titled "Update."\nWork in progress - there may be modifications based on user feedback.\nThe L2K V2 is currently in public testing phase, I do not have enough different cases to test myself, so if you can provide me with specific feedback on E3D & Chinese hotends as I have not tested them.\nCompatible only with 1.75mm filament for now.\nThe main new features are:\nReducing the size of the biggear GT2 to be able to stretch the belt freely\nCurved oval holes for motor fixing to easily stretch the belt\nSwitching to radial fan ducts (air flow gain, X gain 1-2cm)\nFixing all fan ducts in front\nAbility to adjust the height of the print fan ducts by about 2-3cm to be compatible with all hotends\nFront flange for easy maintenance of the hotend\nAttaching the print fan ducts to the flange, which allows you to remove everything by removing the flange, freeing up space in maintenance\nLocking the idler with an additional blocking piece, for easier opening and closing (to be tested in use for the holding force that I made light to allow good compression of the springs without complicating the opening)\nConical entrance for easy filament insertion\nThe body has been fully redesigned using inventor, the screw prints have been revised for a perfect fit, especially for the flange where they were coming out too easily during disassembly.\nThe L3K V1 Compatible:\nThe idler is supposed to be compatible with the L3K V1 if you just want to block it directly (you print the 2 necessary STL files)\nFor the gear drive part, the L3K V2 is originally in GT2.\nThis can be done with classic or herringbone gears from the L3K V1 (the biggear GT2 has been modified so it's better to reprint it).\nThis project is based on Wade L3K V1 which was created by Skarab and myself.\n\n \n \n Additional Parts List\n\nHobbed bolt: http://ebay.eu/2dOdkaJ\n1pc GT2 belt - For the biggear drive: http://bit.ly/L3K_GT2\n2pcs 50x15mm Blower fans: http://bit.ly/L3K_RADIAL\n1pc 16-tooth GT2 pulley with 5mm axle - For driving the GT2 by the motor\n2pcs M3 CHC 50mm - For idler spring\n2pcs M8 screws - For hobbed bolt\n1pc M8x20mm axle - For idler bearing 608\n3pcs 608 bearings - For hobbed bolt and idler\n2pcs M3 (10, 12, 14, 16, 20mm) for different parts of the extruder\n\n Hotends Details\n\nHexagon, AIO, S1, JHead, Aluhotend:\nFanduct 40mm Hexagon_AIO_S1_JHead.stl\nHexagon AO:\nFanduct 30mm Hexagon AO.stl\nE3D & E3D (JHead) Chinese (to be confirmed):\nFanduct 40mm E3D & Chinoise.stl\nAdaptateur_E3D_Body.stl\n\n Post Printing\n\nBody:\nRemove the support in the roller housing of the biggear side\nRemove the idler fixing support\nIf possible, drill a hole with a 2mm drill bit in the filament passage\nFanduct Blower:\nRemove the support from the middle of the fan housing\n\n Advice & Tips\n\nMounting:\nAssemble the entire flange + print ventilation on the body with the hotend in place and then screw on the cold end fanduct last.\nUsage:\nRecommended speed for radial fans: 70% (Above that, too much air is generated which disturbs the hotend)\nRecommended retraction distance: about 1mm\nRecommended retraction speed: between 20 & 40mm/s\n\n Coming Soon\n\nBLTouch support\nLED strip support\n\n Update (Work in Progress)\n\nUpdate of November 2, 2016: Moving the body away from the X carriage by 6mm due to "itopie" having a motor fixing that was hitting the vertical frame above.
