Brush holder for wipe station Tevo Tornado by JerrZvW

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

On my Tevo Tornado, when heating the hotend I always find filament oozing out of my nozzle. Sometimes it's much, sometime a little. But sometimes it brings some contamination into my print area. I found nothing to fit my needs , so I designed this one myself. The brush is is simple brass brush from a shop in the Netherlands called "Hornbach". The Brush is branded "Lessmann" and costs €1,40 and is easily replaceable, just cut to size and push it in the frame...thats it. If you have another size brush slightly smaller, and it's not snug in place, you can attach it using the 2 screwholes.

I have added a video on FB on how it performs : https://www.facebook.com/jerry.zimmermanvanwoesik/videos/1934342129944263/
I added this code after my bedleveling (G29) , you probably need to adjust the X-Y-Z values to suit your needs :
G1 X315 Y1 Z5 F5000.0 ; proceed to brush position
G1 Y40 F5000 ; brush for the first time
G1 Y1 F5000 ; brush for the second time
G1 Y40 F5000 ; brush for the third time
G1 Y1 F5000 ; brush for the last time
This is for a heatbed, with the original plackard removed, and a marmorubot surface installed. The Clamping size for me is 7.2mm. Adjust to your needs.I have added the Fusion360 file for you to edit. (measure the thickness you need, and adjust "Clamping Size"
