CHECK OUT MY NEW RELEASE → 5015 Hot End Fan Upgrade for Ender 3 S1 (Pro) + Sprite Extruder
Design:
I have created this model with the following considerations:
- dual, symmetrical airflow under the nozzle
- to be as light as possible- weighs @ 20 grams only
- snap-on mount 1x 5015 blower (24V)
- retain maximum printing visibility
- to have shortest & as straight airflow as possible
- clear CR Touch probe
- avoid magnetism of the extruder motor
- not to suck in strings from print
Printing instructions:
- printing orientation on bed as shown in pictures
- material: use PETG or better (avoid PLA, due to low heat resistance)
- layer height: 0.2mm or smaller
- enable supports → recommended to use PrusaSlicer 2.6 Alpha 3 or similar slicer to use Organic / Tree supports LINK https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/releases
- use at least 4 perimeters
- infill: any
- note: most of the model has 40°+ Deg overhangs
Fitting instructions:
- after clearing supports, use 2x M3 bolts (ideally 8mm length, or use nuts to shorten any longer bolts you may have)
- use 24 Volt 5015 blower and splice/solder/crimp onto a stock connector
