Description
If you make this, please post pictures!
Uses an E3D titan as well as their V6 extruder. Info below on where to find quality clones for much cheaper.
Features 2 blower fans for "overkill" style cooling, a proximity sensor, cable management, and a modular lightweight design. Everything has quick connectors, so it can be taken apart and re-assembled very quickly. The only part "required" is the main plate, so if you don’t want to use a certain part it is not a problem. AKA nothing mounts to anything else other than the main plate.
The main plate has cavities for each of the nuts. They should press fit in and stay there. The ducting for the layer cooling fans is designed to press fit in place over the blower fans. This allows easy removal and placement so you can add your own designs depending on the print requirements.
By using a modular design, you can not only easily remove parts for servicing / adjustment, but you can also add other tools such as a laser engraver, pen plotter, or vinyl cutter.
If you want to know more info, want the model files in a different format, or want small modifications, please let me know.
I used an E3D titan clone available from here. So far it seems to work perfectly. Trianglelab seems to actually care about quality. The dimensions are identical.
The Rep Rap champions clone is great except for the heartbreak, so order a better one from here or direct from E3D
Silicone Socks These are needed to prevent the powerful blower fans from quickly cooling the hot end.
NPN LJ12A3-4-Z/BX proximity sensor As long as you get NPN, you will NOT need a resistor.
Your cable of choice. I used unshielded Cat6
Various small wood screws as well as metric bolts / nuts from ACE hardware. I recommend printing this and then bringing into ACE or whatever your local hardware store is to find the right sizing. The wood screws are only used in places where there is no expectation of future removal.
