Creality CR-10 Smart Fulcrum Printhead

Creality CR-10 Smart Fulcrum Printhead

This is a custom, complete, fully reversible replacement of the printhead, featuring a full-metal MicroSwiss hotend, a Bondtech LGX-Lite in directdrive setup, dual part fan (and fanducts), hotend fanduct.

It is aimed to:

• implement full-metal hotend and directdrive setup as CR-10 Smart deserves;
• reduce ringing by removing hotend fan and fanduct from the strain gauge assembly;
• let CR-10 Smart to easy print flexible materials;
• add left fan/fanduct for better overhangs (and overall print quality);
• mitigate bed autoleveling/probing by decoupling bowden tube from the printhead (bolted to the strain gauge sensor) and the push-pull problem of other directdrive designs that couple the extruder to the metal carriage.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: this design is for MicroSwiss + LGX Lite only and does not fit CR6 or other Creality printers.

Printing material: PLA+/PETG if not enclosed, otherwise ABS/ASA is mandatory. No supports needed.

BOM: – Work in progress --

Mounting instructions: – Work in progress --

If you want a complete ABS pre-assembled set of the printhead, it will be available for selling on discord channel.
