Hello guys and gals,
This is my design for using a mixing cyclops (2in1out) hotend.
It is meant for the Flsun Q5 and needs to be printed in ASA, ABS or PETG.
What's needed:
There is a sequence in which the hotend installation need to be mounted:
- take off the heatblock from the hotend assembly
- install the thermistor and heat element
- mount the z-sensor plate to the effector plate and make sure that the bolts don't stick out
- mount the cold-end to the effector plate with 3x bolts on the back
- slide the hotend inside of the cold-end and make sure there is a little gap between the bottom of the effector plate and the hotend, use the tiny screws to tighten the heatbreaks in the cold-end.
- Install the radial fan on the back
- install the effector on the printer and wire everything up.
you might need to krimp some connectors on the cables to make it fit. - compile marlin to be used with the cyclops hotend or wait till I upload a stable version
now start calibrating everything again.
If anything is unclear or you have questions please let me know!
