Hydra Fan Duct & Tool Change System for CR10S PRO with MicroSwiss Hotend (REMIX) by registeredthing

Last crawled date: 3 years, 4 months ago

THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND NOT YET TESTED
This is a remix of BoothyBoothy's awesome Hydra Fan Duct, and is designed for the CR10S Pro V1 (which is what I have), with a MicroSwiss Hotend. I have printed several prototypes of this design but have not yet tested this due to a seemingly constant stream of new projects and not enough time (but I will update this when I do test it). For now, if you do print this, it is at your own risk, however feedback is welcome.
This was designed with the additional help of the following:
The 3D model of the CR10S Pro x-gantry by PolygonHell who posted it here (https://a360.co/2BOAdnS).
Ookamii's Heatfixer to fit the taller MicroSwiss Hot end I use on my CR10S Pro (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4457658). Once Thingiverse fixes the ability to add multiple remix sources I will add this as a source.
I designed this to use a front mounted inductive probe similar to the EZABL (18mm diameter). I also designed a side mounted bracket for it, however I felt the offset was too far out so did not test print it and am not including it here.
I did not include the files for the fan ducts, or the extruder mounts, please get them from the original Hydra design linked below. The fans I am using are 5010 fans.

This uses M3 screws and locknuts as the original. It will require mostly M3x10mm screws but two M3x16mm screws will be necessary if using a direct drive extruder.
I will update the description here when everything is tested.
Parts are not oriented for printing (see the pics for a suggested orientation). Supports are optional, though I did use them on the fan guard and the Cable Management bracket. I used the following settings when printing the test parts:
0.16 layer height
50% infill (gyroid)
3 walls
I used PETG for the fan guard, and the heatfixer, as well as the extruder mount and the fan ducts. I used PLA on the other parts.
STEP file included for easy remixing.
This was designed using ViaCAD V12 Pro.
