Anycubic Kossel L+ e3d v6 mount and cooling system
Description
Hi all, I designed this in Autodesk Fusion 360 after having horrendous results with heat creep using other e3d v6 effector designs. I think this issue is that the metal plate on the kossel (where the arms attach) blocks air flow to the lower most fins on the heatsink, causing them to get too hot and heat creep to occur. I tried to solve this by lowering the v6 down, so that those fins are exposed, and placing these parts (which have to be printed out of ABS or something like that, no PLA on these!) with airflow over the lowest fins in mind. Because I want to use these 4010 noctua fans I have, I didn't want to get some 30mm fans to put down there, so I decided to try a tube cooling system, where the nocutas push the air through the tube. I've also allowed for autoleveling on the part cooling fan. You need one of each print. Honestly, I'm probably going to order these printed from Sculpteo out of nylon 3200 (glass filled high temp) for 31.62 usd. I'm hoping this solves heat creep. If it doesn't, I'll modify the fan box (which is designed to clip onto the 2020 extrusion on the top frame btw) so that it can take a big honker of a fan or something alike. Thank you!
