Description
UPDATE: V5 gantry adapter removes the need for the spacer. REUPLOADED TO FIX SOME MODEL ISSUES!!!
V5 Gantry Adapter UPDATE:
V4 UPDATE: dual 5015 version!
V3 Cooling Duct UPDATE:
This is a simple 2-piece cooler for the AnyCubic Vyper that puts down some serious airflow! It uses the 5015 single/dual ducts from the Hero Me 5 cooling system, as well as the stock 4010 heatsink fan with a basic gantry adapter. This is a very simple cooler to install on the Anycubic Vyper.
NOTES:
The duct can be printed without supports (only change to duct is larger M3 holes).
The gantry adapter is a new design and REQUIRES supports. It adds directed airflow to keep some air away from the top of the heater block. Also made the M3 holes larger.
Make sure to use FLAT HEAD screws for the top 2 holes when attaching the gantry adapter to the hotend mount. Everything else uses 'cheese head' M3 hardware.
All mounting hardware is M3, 30mm or less. You may need to sand/drill out the bolt holes slightly once the print is complete (including for the LED holder). With some filaments the holes were perfect, other filaments just a hair too tight. The hex holes should fit a M3 nut without issues though. Standard 5015 fans use a "JST XH 2.5". The fan ports on the Vyper take a "JST PH 2.0" connector. If you don't want to destroy your OEM fans, purchase some JST PH 2.0 connectors from amazon to solder on instead!
I created an optional clip-on piece to Hold the LED!
