Caution, it seems similar, but its incompatible.
Mount Plate with modular FanDuct for Artillery Sidewinder X2 for BIQU H2 Direct Extruder
New Version3.1
My recommendation is to use modular Backplate V3.1 with FanDuct "Bite" V1.0 (uses the Interface V1.1)
See V3 on YouTube
- FanDuct is modular, supports all H2 extruder variants and all nozzles (V6, Revo, Volcano, Light...) - design your own!
- FanDuct must be downloaded separately
- Step file with pluggable interface is provided. Design your own. Upload it here and share it with the community
- Basic FanDuct "Blade" for Volcano Nozzle can be found here
- Flow and space optimised, two-sided FanDuct "Bite" for Volcano Nozzle can be found here
Supports
- Extruder BIQU H2 V2S with your Volcano Hotend (or the proprietary Lite)
- The Volcano hotend should fit the H2 or H2 V2S with native V6 hotend.
- H2 V2S Lite has almost the same height, so it might work (not tested)
- I don't know if the water-cooled H2 or Revo versions will work, or if the Volcano hotend can be mounted on the H2 V2S Lite.
- Modular version supports all nozzle and heat block variants as long as you get or design a fan duct for it (let us know if you do).
- Antlabs BL Touch V3.1
- BIQU Micro Probe V1/V2
- ADXL345 bracket for Sidewinder X2
- A 5015 Blower Fan (I use it with Sunon Maglev)
Features
V3.1
- Increased space towards the heater block
- fixed gap in the plugin mechanism -> interface file v1.1. (interface v1.0 still works but not optimal)
V3
- Modular Fan Duct
- Add FanDuct Interface Step file for you to design and share your own FanDuct
- Moved Artillery PCB 2mm to the front
V2.1
- Modified Fan Duct, less artifacts
V2
- Made the Extruder mount much more stable (results in more reliability and tripled max. x-acceleration input shaper measurement (10000 mm/s², mzv)
- The nozzle has about 5mm to left/right/front/back of the heater bed. To not hit the x-axis stepper, it is moved 5mm upper instead.
- There is an additional hole on the bottom (should fit into Sidewinder X1 - but not tested. Feedback is welcome)
- Easy accessibility of the the lower screw
V1 + V2
- About 30% less weight then the stock titan extruder with volcano hotend
- Less vibrations, higher speed
- Great all Metal BIQU H2 DualGear extruder
- Drop-In Replacement for native Artillery Sidewinder X2
- No further changes to the hardware
- Maybe compatible to X1, Genius Pro if they use the same backplate (not tested)
- Reuse of Volcano Hotend (high flow) and Extruder Circuit
- Perfect centralized fan ducts, No airflow reduction
- FanDucts came from the back, so nothing disturbed your view to the nozzle tip printing.
- In theory, the air stream hits the heating bed just under the tip of the nozzle
- Mount adapter for ADXL345 Acceleration Sensor (Perfect resonance compensation with Klipper)
- Mount Adapter for Antlabs BLTouch V3.1. This adapter is direct attached to the extruder, so for another type, someone can easily design another variant
- Perfect centralized in front of the Nozzle (Offset X,Y: 0,-26)
- Easy to Print (use heat stable material like ABS or ASA)
Known drawback
- Sorry I have to say I found no other way. You have to extend the cable length of the hotend heater or (more secure) buy a replacement with slightly longer cables.
- If you are not happy with my decision to place the BL Touch direct in front of the nozzle, or do not like the BLTouch, you have to design your own touch sensor adapter :-) Feel free to post it here!
Additional things
- M3 Screws
- 3x M3x8 to mount on the Artillery backplate
- 2x M3x8 to mount on the Artillery Circuit
- 2x M3x8 to mount the BIQU H2 V2S Extruder
- 2x M3x18 to mount the 5015 Blower Fan
- 2x M3x8 for mount the BL Touch or BIQU Micro Probe
- 2x M3x8 for mount the ADXL345
- M3 Brass Threads Knurled Nuts:
- 4x M3x4x5 for 5015 Blower + Artillery Circuit Board
- 2x M3x4x5 for BL Touch Mount
- M3 Spacer recommended
Installation
- Print parts in ABS/ASA or similar heat resistant material.
- Print a fan duct of your choice for the modular version.
- Obtain the screws and knurled nuts.
- Melt the 2 for the fan and the other 2 for the circuit electronics into the Extruder Mount. Melt the 2 in the probe mount adapter as well, if you are using it.
- Lengthen or replace the hotend heating cable by 2cm or more.
- Replace the V6 hotend of the BIQU H2 extruder with your Volcano hotend (or use a new one).
- Remove the (heated) die from your Titan extruder.
- Unscrew and screw the hotend to your new extruder
- Attach the nozzle to the new extruder
- Screw the H2 Extruder onto the Mount Plate (from behind, see pictures)
- Screw the Mount Plate to your Artillery SWX2 (the screw on the bottom right is a bit tricky, take your time)
- Screw your fan onto the MountPlate
- Screw your BL Touch or BIQU Micro Probe onto the Extruder
- Connect all cables to the artillery circuit
- Screw the artillery circuit to the MountPlate on the right
- Optional: Print and prepare the cable clamp.
- Stick some sealing tape or foam behind the ribbon cable on the mount (like the original)
- Screw it to the back of the PCB together with the PCB.
- Optional: Screw the ADXL adapter plate to the top of the extruder.
Do all your hardware checks, software calibration and adaptions.
Recommendation
In my opinion, the gears of the H2 V2S have a bit too much tolerance. So as not to overload him and to reduce the noise, set your max extruder acceleration to a low value. There is no need to change the retract velocity as suggested often.
My klipper [extruder] section:
max_extrude_only_velocity: 60 # less relevant
max_extrude_only_accel: 150 # most relevant
Some more words about that will come to my https://blog.freakydu.de blog.
Things to improve
- Mount the Artillery circuit electronic directly to the Stepper Motor instead
- Make a own circuit electronic together with well positioned neopixel LEDs
Have fun.
I would be very happy to see your makes of that!
And feel free to comment.
