Anet A8 Adjustable Dual E3D V6 Bowden Setup
Description
Hi Everyone! I Needed A Dual Extrusion Mount For Two E3D V6 Clones So I Designed My Own! It Has Not Been Printed Yet As My Machine Is Out Of Order, So I Hope To See It Printed By Someone Who Can Give Me Tips On How It Fits And So On. Features: -Independent Dual Extrusion Mount, Each Hotend Is Mounted On Its Own To Simplify Mounting Process. -Adjustable Hotend Height (5Mm Range) To Get Both Nozzle At The Right Height By Just Unscrewing Two Screws And Using The Vertical One To Adjust The Gap. -All-In-One Dual Hotend Cooling And Dual Part Cooling Pieces: The Plate Goes Between The V6 Fan Holder And The Fan Itself After Having Both Of Them Installed. Uses Two 40Mm Fans As Part Cooling Fans. -Provides Wire Management Spots. Known Issues: -The Fan Mount Has No Space For The Screws To Move On, Making Only Small Adjustments Possible, I Am Already Working On A Fix. -Need For Supports: I Designed This With Just Functionality In Mind So Supports Are Needed In Some Pieces, Gonna Try To Make Custom Supports For Those Pieces But I Cannot Ensure It. -Orientation As Default Is Not Always The Good One, Try To Rotate It Until You Get A Good Base Surface And Little Support Needed And Then Let Me Know So I Can Fix The Main Orientation Of The Pieces. Materials: -Various M3 Screws, Gonna Place The Dimensions As Soon As I Get Some Feedback. -Six M3 Nuts, Four On The Back Will Need To Be Pushed In Place As They Lock The Extruder Holder In Place After Adjusting The Height. -Two 40Mm Fans (One Can Be The Stock Anet Hotend Fan, But I Suggest Buying Two Identical Ones To Get Even Performance On Both Coolers) For The Cooling Ducts. -Two E3D V6 Extruders, Complete With Cooling Fans And Bowden Mounts. To Do: -Add Support For Auto-Levelling Sensors (Inductive And Bltouch), Waiting For User Feedback On Dimensions And Suggestions For Placement. -Add Customizable Part Cooling Ducts. The Tolerances On The Whole Project Are At Least 0.2Mm, Which Should Be Fine For Most Printers, If You Encounter Problems I May Upload Bigger Tolerance Files As Well. The Offsets Are 0Mm In Y And 32.04 On X. Thanks To Glidethunder For Pointing It Out In The Comments. Update 16/06/2018: Fixed The Fan Holder Not Allowing Tuning Of The Extruders, Now It Is Made Of Two Parts And Has A Rail That Allows Sliding On The Vertical Axis While Keeping Aligned The Blowers.
